Solitude

What is needed is only this - Solitude, Great Inner Solitude

Going within and meeting no one else for hours -

that is what one must learn to attain!

To be as solitary as one was a child- as the grown-ups were moving about

pre-occupied with things that seemed big and important 

because the grown-ups appeared so busy and

because you could'nt understand what they are doing!
