KOAN
walking without tracks
I moved
beneath a torn sky
lame of light
passing the lacquered skull
bonded to its talisman’s
forgery
finding shamans
with blunt knives
eating the blame
watching
each sacred breath
tarnish bodies
aging fates
gaunt thieves hover
keyless
before nirvana
I enter
through the single crack
where
paradox explodes
unveiling
The Hidden way

A very good description of Koan, though the way to that doorway means an act of letting go, this is the hardest thing to learn. It is having complete faith in the unknown and how many will do that.
My wife did deep trance for many years and it is not only hard but can be dangerous without the correct people around you.
Now to do this alone really takes some doing..
Do you partake of this thing we call trance, ???

There are a million reasons to believe in yourself,
So find more reasons to believe in others..
