High On Waves

Is not just speech we should seek to understand,
we should know the speaker.
It is not just smells we should seek to understand,
we should know the smeller.
It is not just forms we should seek to understand,
we should know the seer
It is not just sounds we should seek to understand,
we should know the hearer
It is not just tastes we should seek to understand,
we should know the taster
It is not just action we should seek to understand,
we should know the Actor.
It is not just pleasure and pain we should seek to understand,
we should know the experiencer.
It is not just bliss, delight and procreation we should seek to understand,
we should know the enjoyer.
It is not just movement we should seek to understand,
we should know the mover.
It is not just thought we should seek to understand,
we should know the thinker.
