[Sunlight] More than all heavens, all worlds

~

Today, Sunlight offers an interpretation of Quatrain 912:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This silence is worth
More than a thousand lives,
This freedom worth
More than all the empires on earth.

To glimpse that truth within yourself,
For even just a moment, is worth
More than all heavens, all worlds,
All this, and all that.

-- Version by Jonathan Star and Shahram Shiva
A Garden Beyond Paradise
Bantam Books, 1992
