Beyond Polarities
Close to a breakthrough,
As we stretch our freedom,
To polar extremes,
Choosing like kids in a candy store,
Like anticipating Xmas presents,
Emotionally fired up by a new love,
Excited, thrilled, fantasizing,
Chasing the next alluring promise,
And yet,
We always end up dissatisfied,
Because we realise,
There has to be more than this,
More than money,
Another love conquest,
Additional stuff that we don't really need,
And so we swing towards spiritual attainment,
With the same consciousness,
And leap about like jumping beans,
Until the searching collapses,
Until, an insight flashes its light,
Aha! we are seeking for us,
We are the Grail,
The great journey begins and ends with each one of us,
At that moment, unconditional Love reveals her face,
Suddenly all the nasty ghosts flee the scene,
We look into each others eyes,
And see Divinity!
