"Compassion hurts...

Spiritual knowledge is profoundly igniting 
one's inner consciousness...
The more one wants to grasp it, 
the more one feels left behind and inadequate ..
The intuition and the insights 
awakes this passion to be in it and to be with it..
The keys are only in those ones 
who hold the most keenness and longings.. 

Yes, compassion hurts..
When one feels connected to everything..
one also feels responsible for everything...
and we cannot turn away from them...
Our destinies are bound with their destinies..
Thus we must learn to carry the universe yet not crushed by it..
We must grow strong to love the world, 
yet empty enough to sit down with its worst tribulations..

Once we realize that the road is the goal..
and that we are always on the road...
not to reach the goal, but to enjoy...
its beauty and its wisdom... and its secrets...
Life ceases to be a task..
Life ceases to be any challenges..
but then it becomes natural and simple..
and in itself an ecstasy..
