Darkness

In darkness
are those who waste their gift of intelligence.
Those who waste it,
in darkness they exist
without knowledge of the world, or themselves.

In darkness greater
are those who search for knowledge
but do not learn the most important thing.
Those who search
but learn not,
in greater darkness they exist,
with knowledge of the world, but not themselves.

In the light,
the light waves themselves
are those who reach beyond knowledge,
who meet the mirror of closed eyes.
In the light they exist
with knowledge beyond the world: of themselves.
