Disrobing ego
Though heavy the garment of logic and name,
And fragile the ego that fans out its love.
To seek the pure dawn, we must loosen the weave,
And unlearn the illusions we taught to mislead.
Layer by layer, the fabric gives form,
Melting the shadows that govern the day.
No longer trapped in brilliance or dignity,
The soul sheds the armor it needed to hide.
As intellect quiets and the ego lets go,
The radiant essence breaks free in its glow.
Stripped of all the veils, we no longer seek—
The light stands unveiled, and the silent truth speaks.
