And let know: “I am– Not the disciple, not the guru, Neither the word, nor the message, Neither the greeting, nor the farewell.
I am Neither black nor white, Neither what you think, nor what they said and you believed, Neither what you suppose, nor what they wrote and you read.
I am not the Heavens, And not this Earth, Nor enchained to a faith– and in command of a sage.
I am not the mirage, And not the glass of wine … for your lonely nights, Not a captive, not enslaved, never disgraced! And not send by the enlightened, Nor will I ever sit in the temple, or in the mosques– or in the cathedrals.
And I am not meant for Paradise, and neither for Hell.
Those have never been my fate.”
