Hay-Ku of the Day (Knowing Myself as I Am)

Knowing Another
Is Wisdom; Knowing Myself
Is Enlightenment.

Knowing Myself as
I Am in Spirit and Truth
Is Enlightenment.

***

Self-Ignorant to
The degree I think I am
Other than I AM.

Self-Ignorant to
The degree I Imagine
I am separate.

***

I Am Enlightened
Of the idea I am a
Separate person.

I Am Enlightened
Of the belief that I am
Other than I AM.

***

Enlightened when I
Recognize I Am That by
Which I Know I Am.

"To know others is wisdom, knowing yourself is enlightenment."  Lao Tzu
