                                            WHO AM I?

I am not of this Earth, I am not of this Sky,
No births, No deaths have I.

     Who am I?

I am quiescence, I am quietude, I am solitude.
I have No body, I have No mind, I have No speech.

    Who am I?

I am eternal, I am bliss, I am peace.
I reside where the structures of sense cannot reach:
I roar through whispers, where inference cannot teach.

               Who am I?

Where all thoughts, to sense, to infer, to lie,
Where thoughts of I, fade away, they are the last to die.

                Who am I?
                                 
To whom do they arise?
They arise in me.

     FOR I AM HE!
