посылая ближнего подальше
оглянись – не ты ли это? – раньше
заглянув на миг в глаза друг другу
перестаньте гнать себя по кругу
p.s.
мой киевский друг – дмитрий новиков – православный буддист из армении живущий нынче в канаде так прочитал этот пост:
when saying to somebody “back off”
first look around – whether you are not saying it to yourself
who before was no different from this “somebody”
look just for a moment into each other’s eyes
and stop chasing each other as if you were enemies
***
“and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength”
“thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself”
but remember also: “for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?”
so know thyself and learn to see the Distant while being able not to lose sight of the near;
for the most faraway spiritual heights are within the closest proximity of our heart
