Have you seen a crab on the beach,
Running towards the water of the sea?
That is how our brain feels
Getting closer to divine wisdom
When we silently pray
Have you seen a young tree
Its roots penetrating the earth
Its branches embracing the air
That is how our heart feels
Reaching out for love
When we silently pray
Have you seen a piece of bread
That was dropped in a bowl of soup
Drenched, completely wet
Its texture changed forever
That is how our soul longs
To be immersed in our Creator
When we silently pray.
