At the entrance to the temple, the Way is illumined

I’m not completely sure where I found this prayer. But I have a feeling it is by Thomas Merton, one of my most favourite and significant teachers and guides.
Thank you with Love

From the Hermit’s Cave to You, wherever you are
On the going down and the coming up
silvered and golded stairs
to and from the Underworld.
It’s all just a giant mirror
In which we see who we are not.

Creatures of the Air,
the Winged ones.
Same like you and me:
Bound to material nature.
