The winds of two religions blow about my heart
Pity, prone I am to hear from one
Do this. Do that. Do NOT this. Do not THAT!
As if with God it just got off the phone
And had a chapbook on its knee what taught
That everything is better, an' so done
And all you need to read is ME alone.
Hideous- wrong from the start.
The second says 'Do as you're inclined.
'Do it often, Ducky, do it soon.
'Living long, eventually you find
'That sailing forward leads you to the moon.
'Naught in itself is aught, as you will see-
'For good is evil only in degree'.

I would like to translate this poem
If we search for truth, we cannot depend on others to tell it to us. We can read, we can get guidance from the books but our most wonderful progress in the search for truth is made when we manage to make it silent, to make our mind silent and listen to our heart and our most inner voice. I think we can learn something from most religions but not from every person within each religion.
