Avadhuta Gita Chapter 1, Verse 26

“As the self is filled by the Self, so is all filled continuously by you. There is no meditator or meditation.
Why does your mind meditate shamelessly?”


to behold its own reflection 
living light takes on myriad forms
each module though one with the whole
hypnotised by the ego, is lost in life’s storms

if we be but still in the void of polarity interchange 
occurring between exhalation and inhalation
when intent arises but before its action
these are moments of meditation 

ego is but an identity our soul dons
to assist it to safely navigate earth life 
as such in truth there is no one here within
our true Self is living light, in peace and bliss rife

the ego as doer or meditator simply does not exist
we are the light that lights all lights in this world
in time stretched silence ego disappears 
heart centric, flag of love is unfurled
