The heart as a probe

The heart as a probe                                                                                         
 
Beyond imagination and conception,
said Meher (of God).  So that
 
by exploring with the mind ourselves
and the world, we shall find nothing  
 
having to do with God.  Thus,
we are left with the heart as a probe
 
or an open invitation to drop the quest altogether.
Meher seems to offer both or either
 
as effectual sadhana.
There’s nothing (apparently)
 
standing between God and me
but a deeply-rooted concept,
 
a powerful imagining of myself as a being
separate and distinct from the Mystery
 
Who created and creates,
sustains and destroys me.
 
O child of God, to know the truth,
Meher said mind must go.
