Behind Name and Form

Oh the illusion of form and name!

Wherever you go it’s just the same.

These two they take to be so real,

While, in fact, they’re only surreal.

Name and form, they both hide

The One Reality that lies inside.

Because of this we’re made blind,

By just a crafty trick of the mind,

That projects as greatly diverse

Beings and objects in the universe.

Name and form all things divide.

To know the Real, put them aside.

If behind all name and form we go,

Oneness of Being we’ll get to know.
