The Nothing (The Holy Empty)

My Baba Mooji - said go inside and remove this and then that and what is left there is the Real You.

Nothing to Lose

Nothing to Gain

Nothing to Fend

Nothing to Shame

Nothing to Leave

Nothing to Find

Nothing to Become

Nothing to Bind

Nothing to Prove

Nothing to Show

Nothing to Heal

Nothing to Grow

Nothing to Drop

Nothing to Keep

Nothing to Believe

Nothing to Weep

Only to Be

Only to Be

I searched everywhere for Everything

And I'm still in shock, when I saw, for the first time I Saw

The greatest prize of all was to perceive this Nothing

In my quiet, my stillness, I removed this and then that

I looked and I could also remove this other and another

And then I found more and a little more and removed that too

And so then, now what is here

Only that which cannot be removed

And this I found was the real Me

And this space, this Nothing that was there with Me

The Master said, I can always come here

And find in this Holy Nothing, I will find whatever I need

There is no need to plan and prepare

Now that my Heart and Soul have become Aware

Of this Nothing, this space that I continue to Prune

And I have found the Master's words True

That whenever I come in to find, whatever it IS

I find it there, and without a care, and now I Share

This Nothing, this space I created inside of Me

That perhaps more Children will go Inside

And do the same, and remove what is not Essential

And that they to will find what remains There

Is the One they've been searching Everywhere

And as all Seeker's find it's right there with them all Along

Nothing to Lose

Nothing to Gain

Nothing to Fend

Nothing to Shame

Nothing to Leave

Nothing to Find

Nothing to Become

Nothing to Bind

Nothing to Prove

Nothing to Show

Nothing to Heal

Nothing to Grow

Nothing to Drop

Nothing to Keep

Nothing to Believe

Nothing to Weep

Only to Be

Only to Be
