His master's voice
The seeker asked the master, "I would see what you see and know what you know"
The master smiled and said that he will say the magic word to reveal the cosmic flow
The word, he said, I will soundlessly speak but you must listen to its echo within your heart
The seeker fell silent, concentrated, alert, so as not to miss the revelation from the start
Thoughts faded, concentration peaked, time stood still
The seeker was poised to hear his master's voice within, so that his void of ignorance would fill
The floodgates suddenly opened and he was swept away in euphoric joy
When at last he returned he knew it was his master's ploy
The journey inwards, each must take alone
You are there already but don't know it yet; don't be forlorn
