Poem
“If you would merge with oneness, vaporise! Be a child again, welcoming surprise!” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Immersed in limitation Shrouded in darkness Feeling thus confined We flounder about Hither and thither Searching for joy Bliss in permanence Yet our heart senses That we are far more Than this mind body With senses externalised Lower mind fragmenting Trying to piece together The puzzle of life Without success Thus in delusion Hypnotised by illusions We strive and struggle Hoping for a miracle Which instantly appears No sooner we ask As voice of conscience Echoing Gods will Which has but one vibration Love unconditional Here begins a struggle Between head and heart Between ego and the divine Former seizing, grasping The latter, sharing, connecting We recognise That the voice of truth Is that of conscience Yet, we fear to lose Fleeting images garnered Or which we yearn for Since we are clinging To ego mind body Stagnating in ferality Trapped by our own hand Unable to escape It is then That God in His compassion Extends us a hand Showing us the clear light Of immutable truth eternal By posing challenges By signalling the futility Of chasing a mirage Illusionary thought forms Which is what All manifestations are Thus when so graced We begin to look inwards In silence and stillness Thought rested awareness Doing nothing Simply resting Poised in the void Of no-thingness Desireless Fearless Detached Nonchalant Unexpectant In timeless time In as ordained Attention is softened Thoughts are quietened Ego cravings recede The external fades As we get to Vibrant emptiness Thus we are Thus we remain For as long as it takes Toxins within cleansed Our earth life vessel This mind body Is readied To receive the elixir The magnetic impulse Of Gods bountiful love In boundless measure The paths are many We know them not For we are not the doer God alone is the mover In childlike trust Aspect allowing We imbibe the bliss Scintillating ~~~~~~~ He is that who may not be named We too are as He, oh hermit Within heart as the turret Our divinity unstained 05-December-2020 Contest: The light N/A
