Let Go and Be Free

A mindful mate of mine proceeds on the pebbly path as an angel with a mission flies in the skies. The childish fullness of his cheeks manifests his mettle and he is a carefree big cat seeking the sweet joy of living his life. As a detached observer he has no temptation for the temporary things; emotions, thoughts, people, events and sceneries. He welcomes what comes on the way as a cast aside cow with contentment and becomes a fruitful tree easily shedding his leaves in the fall. In his hand he never holds an empty bowl : he is filled to the brim by the Supreme Soul. He has nothing to lose : he doesn’t cling to anything. His pure love frees him from dependency and no bond destroys his loveful disposition. He is the animating air expanding his circle and all the cords of attachment have been cut. Nothing ever belongs to him, even the body he lives in is not his own. He perceives the universe perfect and comes with no complaints. All the things he can’t control have taught him to let go and be free.
