Unseeking Seeker Poet Quatrain

Living Waters - Collab With Jo

The Fountain of Living Waters flows, 
Ready to quench our thirst, 
Why do ye hew out broken cisterns? 
Broken cisterns that burst;

Drink from the Fount and be satisfied, 
It will become a well, 
Water springing to eternal life
From your being will swell. 

With this preamble, we may begin,
To tread upon the path,
Mindful always that the thoughts we think,
Be free from lust and wrath.

Within our form, soma nectar flows,
Borne by bliss magnetism,
Enabled when we’re free from desire,
Suffusing body prism.

Paula Goldsmith March 31, 2023 at 2:31 PM You did a wonderful job working the two as one. Good Luck. I found this took extra time/thought when I did mine. Have a blessed day/weekend......... Unseeking Seeker March 31, 2023 at 6:15 PM True ~ fortunately, the scriptures of all paths are replete with references to nectar within or what we may call living waters, fountain of bliss and so on ~ so I’m on familiar terrain, more so, knowing what it is, in direct experience
