We look outward, here upon earth
Ego anchored, devoid of mirth
Fleeting joy that’s mirrored by pain
Bound head to foot by desire’s chain
Caught in a web, our heart did weave
Time’s now that we cease to so grieve
Conscience showing us path correct
That love aligned, we stand erect

Before each act, let’s take a pause 
Discern if lower mind the cause
Mindful eye, thus always aware 
Adroitly sidesteps ego snare
In timeless time, heart becomes pure
Resolve firm, each test we endure
Our consciousness, witness presence
Aligned with God’s omnipresence 

Attention posed in cessation 
Tranquil calm, our meditation 
Magnetic currents pervade form
Invaded by benign bliss storm 
Captivated by a love mist
We surrender; do not resist
Ceasing to size, we vaporise
In as ordained, God realise
