Identity


Identity

This most crucial teaching 
in all religions
alas lies in waiting..
Religion does not reach to
Self for the understanding
to bring the experience
of Identity to
hungry adherents..
Identity for most
starts with inquiry
recognizing the seeming
separations of life..
Questions of how to find
happiness
peace
truth
grow increasingly urgent..
Religions have glimpses
in scriptural crevices
but the gleaning 
is often discouraged..
Beliefs are accorded
 the only means
of fulfillment 
but this heady path adds
 questions and more hunger..
Leading to repeatings
of a simple question
Who am I...?
