Through warm and cold, through light and dark,
the energy flows. I feel my heart.
Breathing in and out, I hear no sound.
I lose my self. But I am found.
I’m not the warmth, nor I am the cold.
I am the path that leads to God.
by Maria Hadjistylli
The only path to enlightenment is the middle path (shushumna). Not left or right, not good or bad, not black nor white, not happy or sad. Embracing all situations in a state of detachment is the only way to overcome them. It is the only way to go beyond them, to reach a higher state, where nothingness is the reality and the illusion of separateness is realised.
