Travelling Home

There can be
no greater journey
than the simple things
we do each day.

In any everyday act
can be found more holiness
than a great pilgrimage
to a far away temple.

It is simply a matter of intensity.
That the sacred is in the mundane
can be verified each and every moment,
on each and every day.
The choice is yours.

That which is transformed
is not only the act, it is also you.

We can sit with holy people
or prey in holy places;
yet all we can really understand
is that it is life that is holy.

Though you may sit
at the feet of a master,
understand that you can go home
and touch the centre of the divine.

Run if you may, seek if you like;
however you, your journey, and
that which you journey towards,
is never far away;
it is now and always
here.
