The Holy Spirit Poem by Stephen Wylie
The Holy Spirit
Does Spirit flow from out to in,
Or lies it always deep within?
I'm not sure that I really care,
So long as it dispels despair.
If doctrine is the work of man,
Why don't we throw it in the can?
In silence we the truth shall find,
It is the fruit of quiet mind.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
In the Judeo/Christian/Islamic tradition, the Holy Spirit is injected into us by God, sort of like a doctor injecting a patient with a cure.
In the tradition of the East, it lies always at the heart of our being, and needs merely (!) to be uncovered by ridding ourselves of layers of illusion, through meditation etc.
