Sabbath

What does Sabbath mean?
Literally, in Hebrew
it means stop and rest.
Stop and rest because
there is only one place
worth going,
and you can never go there.
Your mind can't go there either.
You won't even be able
to imagine arriving.
All going must dissolve
if you want to find that place.
For thousands of years
seekers have looked for it,
but they always failed
because it's a place that
can't be sought or found.
Thus the wise have said,
give up the search.
Where could it be?
Right here of course.
The place where you always
already are.
So stop, and rest.
Sink into the Being
that has no opposite.
