You don’t need the Wizard

Poem:

Just sit cross-legged, continue to breathe and say your mantra, don’t over complicate it. Be wise enough and simplified to not have a desire. You can enter an altered state that allows you to be a Poet. What if instead of sleeping you got up early and said your five magic words? In the wizard of Oz, apparently Dorothy had all along the power to go back directly to Kansas. I you are thick-headed and impure then you will just have to spend double the time- it will take you two and a half hours to reach the door, then of course you should go in- that comes to like five hours. If you are a western man you may have been buried in materialism and it is hard to get out. The man of the East has an advantage but he is buried in pollution and noise. Seraphine recommends to the Professor that he go for a walk in nature. You can just be alone in your brain with Simran or Dhikr. A Poem by David Smith March 10, 2019 Dorothy: Oh, will you help me? Can you help me? Glinda: You don't need to be helped any longer. You've always had the power to go back to Kansas. Dorothy: I have? Scarecrow: Then why didn't you tell her before? Glinda: She wouldn't have believed me. She had to learn it for herself. Scarecrow: What have you learned, Dorothy? Dorothy: Well, I—I think that it, that it wasn't enough just to want to see Uncle Henry and Auntie Em — and it's that — if I ever go looking for my heart's desire again, I won't look any further than my own backyard. Because if it isn't there, I never really lost it to begin with! Is that right? Glinda: That's all it is! Scarecrow: But that's so easy! I should've thought of it for you - Tin Man: I should have felt it in my heart - Glinda: No, she had to find it out for herself. Now those magic slippers will take you home in two seconds! Dorothy: Oh! Toto too? Glinda: Toto too. Dorothy: Now? Glinda: Whenever you wish. ... Glinda: Then close your eyes and tap your heels together three times. And think to yourself, 'There's no place like home'.
