You rise the water unfolds
I only wish to love you
The world is blue as an orange
We have created the night I hold your hand I watch
Even when we sleep we watch over each other
Donkey or cow, cockerel or horse
I looked in front of me
If I speak it's to hear you more clearly
We two take each other by the hand
At dawn I love you I've the whole night in my veins
She looks into me
A single smile disputes

| Question: |
What characteristics attribute to the portrayal of an individual as the embodiment of corporate silence? |
| Answer: |
The individual embodying corporate silence is described as dwelling in lonely places that are newly overrun with grass. They are associated with solemn graces and human memories accompanied by a tearful lore. Despite these characteristics, they are portrayed as being without terror. This entity possesses no evil power. If a person is to meet his shadow due to an urgent or untimely fate, it is advised to commend oneself to God. This entity also haunts the lone regions where no man has trod. |

To acquire some goods, but have none by me:
Who's nice to me is one I hate: it's plain,
And who speaks truth deals with me most falsely:

A white swan is the blackest crow I've known:
Who thinks he's power to help me, does me harm:

due to supreme knowledge, an absolutely transparent dawning of 'dharma-dhatu' devoid of 'prapaneh' (falsehood), absolute staidness like the unflickering lamp in a neat, quiet and windless state or place, and full realisation of the 'tattva' with its non-self nature.

intrinsic
evidence is not necessary, for the
manuscript of the Confessions in French has been

Evening falls and in the garden
Women tell their histories
to Night that not without disdain
spills their dark hair's mysteries
Little children little children
Your wings have flown away
But you rose that defend yourself
Throw your
unrivalled
scents away
For now's the hour of petty theft
Of plumes of flowers and of tresses
Gather the fountain jets so free
Of whom the roses are mistresses
?
