Consciousness - beyond self-created Gods.


I tried to find Him on the Christian cross, 
but He was not there; 
I went to the Temple of the
Hindus and to the old pagodas, 
but I could not find a trace of Him anywhere.

I searched on the mountains and in the valleys
but neither in the heights nor in the depths was I able to find Him. 
I went to the Ka'bah in Mecca,
but He was not there either.

I questioned the scholars and philosophers but
He was beyond their understanding.

I then looked into my heart 
and it was there where He dwelled that I saw Him; 
He was nowhere else to be found.
