Conscious journey

by Octavian Sarbatoare

 

Some people say that,
crystal waters are on a top of a mountain.
Step by step we have to climb and cross
over hills and forests,
over valleys and cliffs,
to keep the awareness alive.
This is the journey of life,
the closer to the waters we are,
the more we realize that
the crystal waters are in the mind.
There is where exists
the world and its objects,
wills and desires,
happiness and love,
because the mind can take any form.
As long as we are aware
of the mental forms,
we drink from the waters of life,
the crystal waters on the mountain.
The beautiful journey becomes
a journey of conscious perception.
