Joy 1
The joy of sitting is so simple that we struggle to find it,
So great that we dare not feel it,
Simple, it empties us of everything continuously
Wonderful, it never ceases to fill our hearts.

Joy 2
Silent sitting brings a joy that has nothing to do with any of the joys we know,
With nothing we have done or not done,
It is joy from elsewhere,
A call, an unexpected reminder.

Joy 3
The joy of simple sitting is a buried joy that comes to free itself,
With the rays that align to touch the bottom of the cave,
Receiver of the generous star
By the inner sun,
The joy of sitting is a relationship of love,
Intertwining, feverish of the two rays of light,
Mother/Son
Re-Co-Naissance.
Co-Re-Birth
Grace-Full-Ness.

Notes & Silence 
The third reads like a chant. In fact, all 3 could be put together for that purpose.
The joy, I think, is in finding the peace of a heart emptied of inward preconception and outer distraction – which, I suspect, are related phenomena – to find the foundational consciousness and awareness from which we spring.
