Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
— Psalm 42:11 King James Version of the Bible
“Reaching For The Light”
Know Thyself … p 99
The night of disquiet
That troubles the soul
Is but illusion of mind,
Our bondage but
Fetters of myth.
“Be free of these demons,”
Cries a voice that rings true,
For it speaks from the
Depths of our Being.
Thrice we are told
“Go within, Go within;
Surrender to God’s
Sovereign power.”
The O so long night,
The illusory mind
But fantasies
Wrest from within
Awakened at last,
Veils stripped from the soul
“Know Thyself,” all along,
Was His goal.
— Garry D. Kilbourn
