Ashtavakra Gita verse 19:3 revisited

19.3
“Where is past and future,
or even present?
Where is space, or even eternity? 
I abide in the glory of Self”


Brahman or God, The Absolute
Luminous darkness, alone is
Motionless beyond space and time
Universe birthed by His bliss fizz

All worlds are then but mere bubbles
Reflecting God’s luminescence 
Illusionary is ego
Light of Self is our quintessence

God is the light who lights all lights
Consciousness ~ one energy field
Each God-spark mirrors His heartbeat
Merging with source when fully healed

Holding firm awareness of Self
Thus immanent and transcendent 
In but not of this dream like world 
We are always bliss resplendent
