In Stillness

Quote of the day: "When you lose touch with inner stillness, you lose touch with yourself. When you lose touch with yourself, you lose yourself in the world." - Eckhart Tolle, spiritual teacher, author and lecturer

Where am I to go
but to turn within myself
There is no doing to be had
just being
there is where I reside

Who am I? continues to linger
for the internal alignment is precisely which can create the external fruits
no more looking without
for another dead-end chase
only within
for there is where I reside

Breathe in and out
the gap in between thoughts
where the source lies
the vitality springs
there is where I reside

Awaken to the moment, the here and now
feel it, remaining still, underneath the noise and chatter
this is who I am
the answer to my question
there is where I reside

No concepts or forms create this identity
no thoughts or words explain what is
it only is
in stillness
there is where I reside

And there lies who I am
