Descent and ascent

Multiple God-sparks, each one with the whole,
are as He, with the life essence inside,
one without a second, thus free from pride
but when polarised, arises a goal,
to know the truth and what is its life’s role,
for which relying on God as the guide,
light realises it has been to lied
by dogmas and scriptures the blind extol.

Recognising we are spirit not form,
body-mind is then like a car we drive,
an interface, provided by God’s grace,
where all we need to do is to conform,
to strobes of silence, inner light revive,
that in this urn we may behold God’s face.
