Discard Conditioned Belief

Futile is striving, unless we are clear
about who we are and purpose of life,
that we may then act without any fear,
full of joy and laughter, always bliss rife,
pulsations of love, to our heart held dear.

Discarding then, each conditioned belief,
relying neither on senses nor mind,
negating ephemeral joy and grief,
leaving vicarious knowing behind,
in tranquil silence, we turn a new leaf.

In timeless time, we slowly cease to sway,
thoughts rested, our awareness self-aware,
beholding light of our soul, clear as day,
surrendering will, laying our soul bare,
God’s benedictions, then make earth life play.
