Avadhuta Gita Chapter 7 verse 9

“The enlightened one is a yogi devoid of yoga and absence of yoga. He is an enjoyer, devoid of enjoyment and absence of enjoyment. Thus he wanders leisurely, filled with the spontaneous joy of his own mind.”


We, as flame of God, are one with the whole
and the ‘we’ we speak of does not exist,
in as an ego performing a role,
which when it dies, on ceasing to resist,
finds out its living light and a bliss mist.
Given these facts, what is there left to do,
save in wonder watching bliss beats renew,
wherein presence in but not of the world,
dwelling in peace, no puzzles left to sew,
delights beholding flag of love unfurled.
