Ever desireless, one can see the mystery.
Ever desiring, one sees the manifestations.
These two spring from the same source but differ in name;
this appears as darkness.
Darkness within darkness.
The gate to all mystery

( Chapter one , Tao De Ching translated by Gia-fu Feng and Jane English )

Mystery

Leads to mystery

A higher consciousness 

To be seen

Deep down 

Within

Powerful

As 

Blood

Running

Within

The source

Underneath

Between

You and me

That day

In Venice 

Before leaving

A glimpse

Of a personal past

At the foundation of Anish Kapoor

Of a long forgotten

Turmoil 

The very day in 1993

I lost

Blood

A lot of it

A child was not to be born?

But mystery remains

In 2023

Like the short film I made

When I was 22

While re-reading 

Tao Te Ching

Of Gia-fu Feng

Perhaps one day

There will be a great awakening 

When the whole world

Is lived

With an inner eye

From within
