Break the mirror

“Hush the blush oh hermit, why needless rush ~
Shift from head to heart, let love and light gush”
            - quote by poet


How may ultimate truth to us be known
Heart intuits truth transcends lower mind
We’re living light, this form is but soul’s clone
Bemused by desires, to God’s light we’re blind
Thus cravings of ego must be declined
Let us oh worthy monk, begin anew
Choosing love over lust, become refined
All concepts we held thus far, are untrue

We each must walk the pathless path alone
Awareness self-aware, in peace reclined
In tranquil silence, our sins we atone
Leaving all imagined knowing behind
Declutching soul from wayward ego’s bind
That childlike heart pure, like fresh morning dew
Transforms as living light, loving and kind
All concepts we held thus far, are untrue

As vaporised Self comes into its own
Day and night, with bliss magnetism entwined
We delight at our heart lotus full grown
Furrows of love and light on its stem splined 
Effusing scents that cannot be defined 
Coo of God’s love that continues to woo
Grace that accrues when we’re divine aligned
All concepts we held thus far, are untrue

Playing our life role on earth as assigned
With each breath reborn, we make our debut 
We see God within heart, firmly enshrined
All concepts we held thus far, are untrue
