This life

Rituals we’re asked to follow
Seem to separate man from man
Something’s wrong, it seems so shallow
Sun shines upon all with elan

So we went to temple and mosque
Sikh gurudwara and the church
Favours from God, all in fear ask
Whilst carefree birds, on treetops perch 

Each affirms, their faith absolute
‘My daddy strongest’ is the norm
Fundamentalists resolute
Where lies hermit, bliss rapture warm

The scriptures per say seem alright
For each teaches, true path is love
Narrowness makes us blind to light
If God’s within, why look above

Such being the case, meditate
Celebrating our aliveness 
We are still, nodes within gyrate
Entwining with the That oneness

Our prayer then, not a doing
Having chosen to surrender
Moment by moment, blossoming
Our each life breath, is God’s wonder 

Our next life

One day this feeble form will die
Liberating soul eternal
Deluded desires, seek the sky 
So we’re reborn; God’s miracle

Memory erased, when reborn
The same questions do resurface
Where lies the light that we adorn
Heart seeks to see God, face to face

Of what avail are the scriptures
We are not this here mind-body
Tiring of bondage and strictures
Plunge into the void, when ready

Cessation of thought, is the way
How many times must we be born
Each breath intake, is when we pray 
With animal instincts all shorn

As our breath flows here and now

Accepting ourself as we are
We negate not, fear and desire
Nor with thought spirals, do we spar
Choose staid silence, because we tire 

Shifting our fulcrum into space
We look inwards at all movement 
Futile rat race, blocks divine grace
So sad is heart’s discontentment 

Ceasing to size, we vaporise
Letting go of our doership 
Life goes on, much to our surprise
No need then, for oneupmanship 

Shift, external to internal
Requiring but a mindful eye
All we do, is make desires null
No cause then, for our heart to sigh

That that comes and goes, unreal
Our lower mind knows not the truth
We stand still, feeling bliss appeal
Entwining with God’s will forsooth

Boundaries blur, all becomes one 
We are the holder of the flame
Luminous like the yonder sun
Recognising life but a game
