How can I, a temple, persuade you <br />that the boundless, <br />the limitless, <br />the eternal, <br />the One, <br />exist? <br /> <br />I could tell you that <br />only those who are bound <br />recognise the boundless, <br />only those who are limited <br />recognise the limitless, <br />only those who are mortal <br />recognise the eternal <br />only those who feel themselves many <br />recognise the One <br /> <br />or I could tell you that <br />only boundlessness tells you you are bound; <br />only limitlessness shows you your limits, <br />only the eternal shows you your mortality; <br />only the One shows you multiplicity <br /> <br />or, if you're still not convinced, <br />see my sculptured couples; <br />kiss, and find <br />what love tells us<br /><br />Michael Shepherd<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/0014-a-hindu-temple-speaks/
