Avadhuta Gita chapter 2 verse 20

“Illusory knowledge relates to what is outside, correct knowledge to what is inside. Try to know That which is more interior than the inside, That which is like water within the kernel of the coconut.”


Employing the dream analogy discern
that our true being is consciousness, the source
and as such is not this feeble body urn,
so shifting in within without use of force,
in time stretched tranquil silence in time we learn
that boundless grace of God is our sole resource.
Our awareness self-aware, at peace and still,
merges with the all by surrendering will.
