Poem:

Coming out of meditation into daily life is useless, it would be better if I came out of daily life often into meditation. I could do five sessions like the Muslims do prayer. Though mine would be insanely longer and go deep into being still. The central theme occurred when I was thirty-three. God was as good as revealed. But there is post-satori practice which is like extraction. You take your soul out which is just your attention. You can hover on the ceiling but you are supposed to go with your Guru. The required personal purity is like putting out a fire. How old do you have to be before you learn to fly out and just be. Having ordinary mind with desire is like having a fever, it is better to operate on Buddha Mind which is more peaceful. It would be good to be brainwashed with Buddha’s teachings. But even so without inner light you would not do anything right. Poetry is just suggestion
