the puzzle

so many beings have broken down
the earth is still filled with blood
not just human blood...
many beings have lost all
many are still lost without their light
then we will eventually rise up again
and merge back into the light ocean
when all needs are fulfilled
when all deprivations are removed
when all dignity remains restored
our hearts will overflow once more
then we pour our love into each other
our suffering will be shared
and so will be our joys
in this shared universe
we carry each other along
as no one lives in isolation
we all live together
for this earth and the water
and the fire and the air
belongs to all of us
we all are a family
not just for humans...
needing nothing... and in our humanity...
we share everything we own
as we really then...
do need nothing any more

The riddles of koans are fascinating -
