Ashtavakra Gita Verse 20:1
20.1
“Where are the elements,
the body, the organs, the mind?
Where is the void?
Where is despair?
My nature is transparent clearness”
Verse revisited on 19-July-2022
Such is God’s power we wield
That space and time, both yield
Awareness poised at the epicentre
Wherefrom all manifestations canter
Tranquil stillness before breath inhalation
Rippleless lake of soul’s blissful elation
Devoid of any trace of egoic residue
Is pulse of truth that does renew
Duality emanation of singularity
Is the inner knowing in deep clarity
Recognising that the world’s a stage
There thus no cause for desires to rage
Ensouling feeble form, experience by touch
Letting go of concepts and belief crutch
Embrace and release, each sensation
One with oneness and all creation
