Become Self Empowered

There is a mad phenomenon 
that  stalks sick sad modern zest
Seek an external remedy
to remove a chronic pest

The body is a miracle
when given what it needs
But first you must remove the cause
upon which it feeds

Hey Guru mister Guru
won't you come and help me through
What you really must realise 
is that the Guru is you

Prescription for the doctors
that well may preserve your life
The doctor of sunshine and also fresh air
In such abundance on this planet
these supplements are rife

The doctor of restful sleep and daily exercise
are you alerted, does it ring a bell
Adhering to these principals 
will surely make you well

The doctor of non poisoned food
and clean water too
With this scope of daily living
your vitality will enlarge
No need for appointments 
all provided free of charge

If you wish to commence healing 
this is what to do
What you must realise 
that the Guru is you

We are the problem and we are the cure. Wether it be ourselves or our planet, and they affect each other. If we treat our planet as a garbage bin, then we can never be healthy as we partake of nothing but garbage. Brilliant.
