come of it?
Or would it enrich his position there?

61
I am sick of the babbling of priests.
No one has come back to enlighten us.
Perhaps they are just conning us?
Or perhaps is them striving for immortality.
62
The scholars of our day are
Tainted by their own discipline,
Maybe they are paying a dept to their forefathers
And passing it on to their children.
63
Of all the Souls of Mankind
That is now the ethos of Humanity
I wonder what becomes of them.
Are Jesus, Mohammad and the Buddha now Gods?
Page 21
64
The passing on of knowledge
From this life to the next
Or the next life’s knowledge to reincarnate
It seems as though they both start afresh.
65
How long ago was man’s soul formed
Into the body of a human being?
Perhaps it will end when God has had enough of us.
Or perhaps when we destroy ourselves.
66
Is it all a test of God in Paradise?
Is He the celestial ‘Policeman in the shy”?
It is said He rewards goodness and punishes wickedness.
Perhaps more than the policeman, but the Ultimate Judge!
Page 22
67
Are these words of mine hot air?
Or are there questions than need answering?
Do they lean towards an understanding?
Or perhaps we will never understand.
68
Does that which you have already spent grieve you?
Just for a few years of false happiness?
Before your spirit goes
To some unimaginable place.
69
One thing you can be sure of
An unalterable fact of life,
All the Kings, Queens and Presidents
Will end up just as dead as you and I.
Page 23
70
Because those Kings, Queens and Presidents
Are buried in sanctified ground with pomp and ceremony
And the likes of you and I in a common place –
All Souls are judged with the same values by God.
71
Don’t think that you are the chosen one.
Don’t think that death is too far away to consider.
Your age matters no more than the aged.
Though the aged have life’s experience to guide them.
72
Not many of us built the house we live in,
Maybe it could be viewed as a gift from our forefathers
What will you leave to those who come after you
When your spirit leaves your body?
Page 24
73
When you look in the mirror
And if the face of an old woman or man greets you
Will you take out insurance and believe,
As you know not what happens at that fatal moment.
74
During your life do you see
Flowers and beautiful birds
Green seas and blue skies?
Don’t leave your run too late.
75
As you will never know the truth
You will spend your life in mystery, unless you have the faith,
Even if you are a seeker of sacred knowledge,
You will never know beyond that elusive veil of darkness.
Page 25
76
The only resting place is beneath the earth
For the pressures of reality of the captured Spirit
That which is within your body, must be released
And only then will you know the truth.
77
A drunkard full of cheer
Often enjoys his life more than most
Accept your lot
And live it to the hilt.
78
What happens when you die is determined by
How we spend our life. Where did this knowledge come from?
I too would like to know this
Without going to the other side to find out.
Page 26
79
When a book of life is handed down
Through the generations and translated many times
Over the centuries, is it the same now
As it was when first written?
80
When one’s life’s mould is set,
Is it before birth or during early childhood?
Is it inherited or is it environmental?
I ask, “Do we know for sure”.
81
My hair is grey and
My bones hurt when I move.
I am ready to go and may God
And He alone Judge me.
Page 27
82
I do not know if God will greet me
Or whether He will curse me
For wasting my time during my life.
Or does my lot in life die with me when I die.
83
Does the blowing of trumpets and the singing of songs
Get you into Heaven or does one’s neighbours
Rituals gain more for you?
Or does God judge you on your love and knowledge?
84
I ask you not to waste your time
Should you tell of your sins to be forgiven?
Only God and He alone
Can forgive you, if you feel you need forgiving.
Page 28
85
Our time on earth in man’s eyes is fairly long
Though it s but a moment
In the time of the Galaxy.
Enjoy your time and make haste.
86
What of reincarnation you might ask?
You will not know for certain until you die.
Could you change it then so as
To say you have had enough.
87
I ask with an open heart, “When did it all begin”?
“When will it all end”?
Do you fool yourself in your belief
That you control your life?
Page 29
88
Even the mark you leave behind
Is not important.
A wind from the desert obliterates it
With a puff of air.
89
If my life was moulded
Before I was born,
Then perhaps God should judge
Himself as He set the mould.
90
Perhaps it would be different
If I had a say in it.
I sometimes wonder if the life hereafter
Is a figment of the imagination of Priests.
Page 30
91
Perhaps ‘Life after death’ is a means of control
A story used by Kings, Presidents and Priests
Perhaps not at the same time would they all know
The truth of this deception as some themselves would believe.
92
The great monuments and icons you leave behind;
Your enemies will enjoy them as much as your friends,
For this is the way of life and death.
Humanity will know the likes of them again.
93
Of all the religions of Humanity,
Please don’t tell me that yours is the true one.
They are all different paths to climb the mountain
The summit of which will be revealed at Humanities last climb.
Page 31
94
If humanity succeeds in making intelligent life
Will he create a soul for it too?
Is a soul an essential part of life?
Could it live without a Soul or Spirit? Man can’t.
95
Don’t be concerned that Humanity
Will miss your coming and going.
This is only wishing and hoping.
It matters only a short time to Humanity.
96
The great scholars of the world
Devote their life to earning.
When they depart from this world
They learned that they knew nothing at all.
Page 32
97
Over the centuries there have been great Prophets
Who claim to know the answers.
Were they great genius?
Or like us, just guessing the answers.
98
You can believe and have faith
Until you’re blue in the face.
This scenario is no more accurate
Than the guesses of others.
99
I read the works of the learned and great minds
That Humanity has produced, and I say to you
“It was formed and will end
With no heed to anyone.
Page 33
100
There are answers that Humanity can only guess at,
This is the right true path for Humanity;
For when Humanity learns the answer
His purpose will be done, to proceed to where?
