Watch the Water
Lose yourself in me,
And you will find yourself.
Lose yourself in me
And you will find new life
Lose yourself in me`
And you will find yourself
And you will live,
Yes, you will live in my love.
The Salt Doll
Once upon a time, after a long journey over mountain and valley, a Salt Doll reached the sea-shore. She was struck at that vast expanse of water. She had never seen the sea before. It was so large, so charming! She felt irresistibly attracted towards it. She stood on the shore, so firm and assured. The sea in front of her looked so vast, so immense, so inviting, so peaceful! She wanted by all means to know what the sea was.
Timidly, the Doll came closer to the sea and with a touch of curiosity asked the sea: Who are you?" And the sea replied: "I am the sea." The Doll remarked: "Well, you only told me your name. I want to know more about you. I want and long to experience who you are! Show me more about yourself'."
The sea, mysteriously, answered: "I am just what I am. I am the sea." In perplexity, the Doll inquired: "I cannot figure out what you say you are. Yet, I want to know more about you. Shall I be ever to understand who you are?
The sea replied: You will never come to know who I am, unless you come closer to me, unless you touch me. … "If you really long to know who I am, please, come forward and allow me touch you!."
The Doll came forward and fearfully touched the sea with one of her feet. Immediately, she experienced a very strange, but beautiful a feeling…. Something glorious she could not understand! . Then, she tried to move her foot away from the water, but her foot wasn't there any more! It had dissolved in the sea. In fright and disbelief, the Doll cried out: “What have you done to my foot?
Yes, your foot is gone….You have given me permission to touch and experience who I am! If you wish to know more of me, and how wonderful is to abide in me, come closer now! Be ready to lose yourself in me. Then, the Doll gradually, stepped deeper and deeper into the sea.
The deeper she went into the water that strange but wonderful feeling of joy grew stronger and stronger, she kept experiencing and more of the sea. When finally, when the Doll was about to be completely possessed by the sea, she exclaimed: "Now, I know what the sea is and what I am. We are one!”!
