what if...

I have been reading this beautiful poem in my classes this week... What if, indeed...


What If?
A Poem by Ganga White

What if religion was each other?
If our practice was our life?
If prayer was our words?

What if the Temple was the Earth?
If forests were our church?
If holy water—the rivers, lakes and oceans?

What if meditation was our relationships?
If the Teacher was life?
If wisdom was self-knowledge?
If love was the center of our being?

What if God was oneself, and all?
