The chaos and order of life

Should the future be just the modified past

Or something totally different?

So what one calls living is that

Which has happened and gone.

That which has gone is dead;

That’s why one’s mind is so dead.

That is the tragedy of one’s life.

You may be feeling,

“Where will I be if all my people die?”

Yes, this question arises in you,

Because you have invested a lot in someone.

Your visions, dreams, thoughts, imaginations,

Meditation, expectations, knowledge,

Experiences – your everything -

Totally yourself has been invested in someone.

So what will you be if that someone goes away or dies?

It seems unimaginable or unthinkable to you,

But it is the very fact of your life.

In the extreme moments of your life,

Everything goes away from you

And only you alone will remain forever.

That aloneness is Dharma – the universal order.
