The Attention Of The Whole Beingis Called To Task. Poem by Genova Maaa my mother

Create optimum conditions
for cultivating mystical
awareness Of God's being.

The consciousness sought
is mystical in the sense
of piercing the darkness
and resolving the mystery.

The desert must be endured
to attain the knowlege
and the experience of
the transcendent and
inexpressible God.

It is the attention
of the whole being
which is called to task
in the pursuit of
the ultimate being.

It is the intimate
union with God,
which a mystic
poet seeks for.

By the force of the subdued,
instructed and formed will,
the mind is disposed
to recollection and attention,
and the attention is fixed
on God by recalling thought
when it wanders or reviving
itwhen it fades away.
