Stairway to Heaven

Be at peace with your own soul then heaven & earth will be at peace with you.Enter eagerly into the treasure house that is within you,And you will see the things that are in heaven,for there is but one single entry to them both.The ladder that leads to the Kingdom is hidden within your soul...Dive into yourself and in your souland you will discover the stairs by which to ascend.

Isaac the Syrian
