Cosmic
Journey
We are travellers on a cosmic
journey ~
stardust, swirling and dancing
in the eddies and whirlpools of infinity.
Life is eternal.
But the expressions of life
are ephemeral, momentary, transient.
Gautauma Buddha, the founder
of Buddhism, once said,
this existence of ours is
as transient as autumn clouds.
To watch the birth and death
of beings is like looking at the movements of a dance.
A lifetime is like a flash
of lightning in the sky.
Rushing by like a torrent
down a steep mountain.
We have stopped for a moment
to encounter each other,
to meet, to love, to share.
This is a precious moment,
but it is transient.
It is a little parenthesis
in eternity.
If we share with caring, lightheartedness,
and love,
we will create abundance and
joy for each other.
And then this moment will
have been worthwhile.
