Light That Lights All Lights

Life is but a dream As what we perceive and experience Are all ephemeral and temporary A favourable occurrence or an unpleasant one Are all but fleeting truths That play upon the screen of life Impermanence is their trait So never be affected by it all Hard times teach us a deeper sense of self and purpose Strengthens our resilience in times of adversity Provides a greater appreciation of life and loved ones An increased capacity for altruism and empathy Introspect in staid stillness Meditation is the key to profound insight For the realisation of the eternal light Comes in a state of calmness in the mind To achieve greater clarity and peace of mind In a spiritual and intellectual awakening Where we don’t seek shadows but the true source of light Amidst the chaotic and transient nature of life Live in the present neither the future nor the past As sand moves continuously through the hourglass And the alarm clock is ringing Ding a ling a ling!
