Transpoliteration of Thomas, Logion Two

When searching,
going further,
there’s no stopping
until you fully abide
here.

Almost here,
you’re full of paranoia
and bottomless fear—
knowing the known is
not really known.

This fear gives way
to mind-blowing
wonder
seeing the known is
the unknown.

In blissful no-mind,
here’s the sovereign revelation
I Am That—
the absolute
unknown.


If you are searching, you must not stop until you find.
When you find, however, you will become troubled.
Your confusion will give way to wonder.
 In wonder you will reign over all things.
~Thomas Logion Two, translated by Lynn Baumann
