Clear sight
Recognising that we are all of this,
in as all that’s manifest and vast space,
as direct knowing, not a mere premiss,
is non-dual wisdom, garnered by grace.
For most of us, who’re yet rooted in mind,
the truth absolute cannot be embraced,
since hypnotised by desires, we are blind,
soul’s light is by shadows of fear defaced.
Scriptures inform us how we may be free,
by presenting us with a clear roadmap,
which if adopted will make soul carefree,
by closing the widening head-heart gap.
The map however, is not the terrain;
we must walk the path, else our life’s in vain.
We must walk the path, else our life’s in vain,
for unless we know who we truly are,
we will remain bound to ego’s thought chain
and from light of Self, slowly drift afar.
Thought cessation then, is the only way,
to connect awareness with our true Self,
where befriending silence, ceasing to sway,
we’re still yet the music plays by itself.
The world calls to us and we must respond
but we do so now from void’s vantage point,
embracing, releasing, forging no bond,
allowing God’s touch to wisdom anoint.
The pathless path is simply surrender,
breath by breath as we look on in wonder.
Breath by breath as we look on in wonder,
nonchalant heart carries no residue
and so in timeless time, soundless thunder
blows the horn, whose pristine bliss beats renew.
Attention transfixed on the bliss current,
layer by layer, ego cravings die
and in the ignition that’s concurrent,
our vaporised presence begins to fly.
We see who we are through spherical sight,
that we are living light in renewal,
which we always were, in peaceful delight,
in singularity that’s non-dual.
We dwell in silence, drenched in mists of bliss,
recognising that we are all of this.
