Notes About The Poem

Mind-Body Enigma

Here we are, in this feeble mind-body Afflicted by amnesia, plonked upon earth We are this here now, not everybody Limited, yet vibrant with childlike mirth Maya veils; lets us feel life’s sharp contrast Soul encased in this organic vessel The truth once known, leaves lower mind aghast Cognition by single eye spherical This form a springboard for our soul’s ascent In truth this life is but a lucid dream Once head melds with heart, granting love consent Gods love and light within, begins to stream Stillness and silence alone sets us free As bliss bubbles burst in a joyous spree 23-August-2021 Why am I me?
