Which path will you walk
in trying to find enlightenment?
How can you know if
it is the correct path?
When you sit and contemplate
this do you take a mental broom
and attempt to sweep
the dust of thoughts
into a corner, thus leaving
room for the Buddha, or do
you let the breeze of practice
carry the dust away?
