Poem
Religion is just a kindergarten It’s just a preparatory school It prepares us for formal education So that we don’t grow up to be a fool Spirituality is graduation University that follows school It helps us become graduates So that we can jump into the world pool What would we do without Religion? Without ABC where would we go? If nobody taught us the basics We would end up with a poor show But can we live our entire life Learning in a nursery? Imagine growing up as big adults Just learning ABC We all need to progress We all need to grow We need all kinds of knowledge So that our life boat we can row While learning is important And it is a must to go to school If we want to achieve our life goal Then Spirituality is the tool Who is God, where is God, what is God? If answers we want to know Then we must go on a Spiritual quest Knocking door to door We can’t just believe in Religion From birth until death For it only teaches the basics It is just like taking breath From Religion we need a transfer From kindergarten, we must grow We must ask questions about God Not just accept what scriptures show Of course, we need Religion We can’t do without it. But if we only stick to Religion We will only learn the myth Religion starts our journey to God It builds our faith and hope It teaches us to pray And how in life we must cope But Religion doesn’t have answers It doesn’t take us to God It doesn’t show us a way Where we can unite with our Lord Spirituality is a university It’s all about going on a quest It is not an easy game And we must pass the test What is Spirituality all about? To realize we are the Soul To be liberated from this alluring world This is our Ultimate Goal While Religion makes us imprisoned In myth, ritual, and superstition Spirituality makes us realize the Truth And then gives us Liberation What is the Truth Spirituality shows? We are not ego, body, and mind We are the Spirit, the Divine Soul This Truth, it helps us find Spirituality is not just knowledge It is realizing the Truth about self It first teaches us what we are not And puts the Truth on the shelf If we are not the body and the mind Then in reality who are we? Of course, we know we exist Then the inner Spirit we must be There is a Power inside us That comes to us at birth We may call it the Soul, the Spirit, the Atman It’s with us till we are on earth
