The Paradoxical Understanding Jennifer M Haynes
A mystical vision of truth and disciplined desires The sacred path to enlightenment sought
Vow only to sex with oneself Need strength of mind to master indulgence
Meaning is abandoned in a grave with God A pointless existence ends in nothingness
The honored teachings of hope and joy Left behind doors of dead ideas
A river of suffering leads the way Pain and hate reflected in its honest waters
The paradoxical understanding: You awaken to freedom of thought but the world is asleep
