SACRED TEXT.

The wisest travelers read from

the book of the House of the World.

Its pages always lead them

to live simple, free of wants and possessions;

to live virtuous, free of the false-self;

and to live unafraid, free from the past and future.

They learn to be connected to everything

while attached to nothing.

And so an ancient voice would remind you,

that “not everyone chooses poverty.

Only the wise ones.”
