There was a ‘one’, there was not the “One”.
A one’s name was Joe Blow
Joe Blow lived under the azure dome
Joe Blow lived a happy life,
Joe Blow lived a joyful life,
Joe Blow lived a carefree life,
Joe Blow lived a heavenly life,
Joe Blow lived a joyous life
Joe Blow lived a healthy life,
Joe Blow lived a harmonious life.
Joe Blow lived,
Joe Blow danced,
Joe Blow sang,
Joe Blow enjoyed life to its last bang
Ding dung dang, dung, ding, dang
Every where light,
Every where bright,
Joe Blow was at its height
Joe Blow had joyful thought
Every thing was right all right
Light, bright, height, thought, all right!
Slowly slowly light faded,
Darkness overcame the light
Joe Blow ran for light,
But light disappeared and came night.
Fear crept in Joe's thought.
It was dark and dark and dark
Fear raised and raised in Joe's heart.
Fear shoot up to the ceiling of the azure dome
Joe Blow ran everywhere.
There was no light at all
Joe had no more joy or happiness
No dance, no song, no light, no thought
Fear, fear, fear, and fear.
Joe had fear from darkness
Out of fear Joe felt sick
Then Joe had fear of sickness
Oh Joe felt sick to death
Then came fear from the death,
Oh fear of darkness, sickness, and death everywhere
Joe almost died of fear
Every breath was so hard.
Every moment got so tight
There was not life anymore,
Fear brought death on Joe.
Then Joe sought help to over come the fear
Joe ran here and Joe ran there
Joe was looking for someone who did not have fear
Some one who did not get sick
Someone who did not die ever.
Someone beyond the azure dome
Someone above Joe's fear.
Joe slowly found the One,
Who did not have any fear,
Who would not get sick,
Neither would die the One,
Who was above the azure dome,
Who was everywhere around.
Joy took refuge at the One.
Joe felt better to have the One.
Under the shadow and the protection of the One,
Joe overcame the fear
Life became more bearable
Life began to go on.
Joe got tired and fell sleep.
When Joe woke up gain,
There was light everywhere.
Joe began to dance and enjoy life.
Until night’s turn came again
Joe took refuge on the One
And slept in confidence.
Days passed, weeks passed, months passed, years passed,
Joe was happy with life.
Joe enjoyed light and when it was dark,
Joe took refuge on the One.
One day a guy who was hungry and poor.
Sought business under the azure dome.
He came across Joe’s life.
He noticed Joe’s fear
He noticed Joe’s joy.
Thinking of job, business, money, power, position, greed, property, etc etc.
The hungry guy thought of investing on Joe’s fear.
He thought Joe should not overcome the fear for free.
He told Joe he had a message from the One.
He told Joe he was the One’s messenger.
Joe laughed at him first,
But the merchant did not give up
Knowing Joe’s weakness was fear,
He induced fear upon Joe
He tried to scare Joe of fire,
He tried to scare Joe by swords,
He tried to scare Joe of misery,
He tried to scare Joe of the fall of the azure dome and doomsday.
Joe eventually was cornered.
Joe’s fear made Joe to give up.
The merchant took over.
He became the messenger, Joe remained Joe.
As soon as Joe wanted to enjoy life,
The messenger reminded Joe of misery and fear.
Joe’s life turned upside down.
Fear from misery made Joe miserable.
The merchant got richer and richer.
The merchant made stories about the One
But in his heart he laughed at Joe and Joe’s stupidity
The merchant made the One his tool
He did not have faith on the One
He gained protection, power, position, wealth, slaves, and what not
All out of Joe and Joes'es labour
The investment on Joe’s fear,
Made the merchant rich, really rich.
Now under the azure dome
There was not joy for Joe
Joe woke up in misery,
Joe went to bed with misery
Joe gave up on happiness
Joe became the slave of the merchant.
Joe remained in misery and slavery for centuries and centuries
As if Joe was hypnotized,
Or was in a deep sleep.
Joe forgot that once upon the time
Joe had a joyful life
When Joe would wake up again?
Can you help Joe to wake up?
And deal with fear the way Joe did in the past?
To have direct contact with the One,
Without any merchant in between?
Oh every one and oh the One
Joe Blow needs help, Oh help you Joe.
Wake up Joe and leave the merchant.
Live the life like in the past.
See the merchant and see the One
Amen, amen, amen amen.
Under the azure dome,
There was a one and there was not the One
