Scripture of the Golden Eternity
Jack Kerouac
1
Did I create that sky? Yes, for, if it was anything other than a conception in my mind I
wouldnt have said "Sky"-That is why I am the golden eternity. There are not two of us here,
reader and writer, but one, one golden eternity, One-Which-It-Is, That-Which- Everything-
Is.
2
The awakened Buddha to show the way, the chosen Messiah to die in the degradation of
sentience, is the golden eternity. One that is what is, the golden eternity, or, God, or,
Tathagata-the name. The Named One. The human God. Sentient Godhood. Animate
Divine. The Deified One. The Verified One. The Free One. The Liberator. The Still One.
The settled One. The Established One. Golden Eternity. All is Well. The Empty One. The
Ready One. The Quitter. The Sitter. The Justified One. The Happy One.
3
That sky, if it was anything other than an illusion of my mortal mind I wouldnt have said
"that sky." Thus I made that sky, I am the golden eternity. I am Mortal Golden Eternity.
4
I was awakened to show the way, chosen to die in the degradation of life, because I am
Mortal Golden Eternity.
5
I am the golden eternity in mortal animate form.
6
Strictly speaking, there is no me, because all is emptiness. I am empty, I am non-existent.
All is bliss.
7
This truth law has no more reality than the world.
8
You are the golden eternity because there is no me and no you, only one golden eternity.
9
The Realizer. Entertain no imaginations whatever, for the thing is a no-thing. Knowing this
then is Human Godhood.
10
This world is the movie of what everything is, it is one movie, made of the same stuff
throughout, belonging to nobody, which is what everything is.
