Awaking From the Dream

Plunged into dream life of our choosing
We are hypnotised by shadows therein
Enmeshed in desires and thus stagnating
Senses dead to throb of bliss ignition 

How may we awake from this amnesia
A question for which there seems no answer
Scriptures too dwell upon this enigma
Yet no magic wand appears nor saviour 

Self help then, we shift into calm tranquil
Silence and stillness in the void vibrant
Wherein throb of bliss is Gods miracle
Pristine presence to each pulse sentient

Dreamer and dreamed must merge to become one
Knowing instant if ego urge undone
