"You who want ..."

Related Poem Content Details

You who want 
knowledge, 
seek the Oneness 
within. 

There you 
will find 
the clear mirror 
already waiting.

  2. The poem never states that the person the narrator is addressing is looking for Oneness. The 2nd person in the poem, the reader, is presumably looking for knowledge but ignoring Oneness and looking within.

    What I microcosm for life! The bigger picture of not knowing what we are really looking for... Of course if we did, life would probably be a lot easier. Maybe more boring too?

    What do others think? Is life more about trying to figure out life? As in the trying part, or something else like Oneness or knowing thyself?
