To Find The Gold Way Poem by Lyudmila Purgina

To find the Gold Way in life
Is so hard.
Because your Body and your mind
Seem to exist apart.
Your Body changes through the time,
…Your mind - is constant.
As if the brake in any car
It's always stopping
Excessive passions,
And excessive moving,
Excess disturbing,
And excess of soothing...

--
Do not tighten the strings of your instrument too much, they will break.
Do not keep them too loose, or they will produce no sound-
The Buddha, when he heard this, felt it was said just for him.

Swami muktananda.
