The treasure is found
within our being,
not outside ourselves,
not in the sky,
not even in the
moon and sun or
anywhere in the galaxy,
or beneath the earth,
or in the castle
or any temple,
or any architectural
building of worship
built by man,
however grandeur and sacred,
adorned with gold or silver,
or in any secret place or caves,
but deep within ourselves.
Search within your shore,
to have access
to your humanness.
Dig within your heart,
explore the recess
of your mind,
diligently with love tend
the garden of your spirit.
From within you can
find the gem,
the true treasure,
that unspeakable elixir of life,
the center that balances you.
The light that shines
in your darkness
Only you can find it
in the long and lonely walk.
But at the end of the tunnel
of your darkness will
emerge the greater light.
