Liberation from rebirth

Although we now know we are living light,
whilst caged in form we yet feel limited,
so embracing love, doing what is right,
of past sins we wish to be acquitted.

When ego dies and no desire remains,
we are then still, as a flicker-free flame,
the fire of bliss cleansing all our soul’s stains,
whence there are no demons we need to tame.

Free as a bird, no actions untoward,
there is no cause for us to be reborn,
for we follow God’s laws, obey His word
and our lustrous aura does form adorn.

God and our soul then speak in the same voice ~
Rebirth for us is solely by our choice
