Our natural state

Written: January 04, 2025 For Contest Sponsored by: Unseeking Seeker Line of inquiry: “free from conditioned belief no agenda on our shelf vibrant as the light of Self life flows on all by itself” ________________________________ Our peaceful place is a serene stillness, Freed of a firm grasp of the familiar isthmus. No steered ambit, no behests to satiate, No truncated quest, or toils for tribal vitiate. Sepia slate chutzpah, the soul's shining spark, Diaphanous slivers and mullions pinpoint its stark. Life lingers as leaping strides send quads convulsions, A ceaseless cascade, a haunting mix of red, casts visions. In the serene sanctuary, spirits shall plane, Freed from the fetters of borrowed strain. A stream surges, unscathed by dim schemes, Radiating tinsel, reflecting radiant gleams. Bathed in moonbeams, velvet drapes create a pearly gleam, Amid enticing melody, toads hatched a fantastic dream. This tale, a paper-thin silken gown of a gliding string, A seed root segment fixed to the probe, splendidly cling. Like leaves rowdy from autumn's fickle breath, We shed imposed beliefs, escape false death. Roots reach deep where truth alone can mend, Untouched by fears that others' wills may send. No nagging neuroses of self-control and vanity, Gleefully fair breathing, obnoxious bully of inanity. Liberated from loads, major culprits in building tension, Unbridled, freed seaworthiness of untested dissension. A quiet loot, winning gentleness upon a serene face, Liberty lolls, luster trails hemmed in balsam firs and grace. No view marred, no stance clutched, just paideia and piety, Simply splendid, no spiders in their webs or anxiety.

What a wonderful entry for the contest. The depth of thought and beauty of language are simply amazing. To what serene state of mind, we enter when mind is freed of all unbridled desires and the "fetters of borrowed strain". A life with "No steered ambit, no behests to satiate, No truncated quest, or toils for tribal vitiate'' is a life of calmness and bliss. I love the last line- "no spiders in their webs or anxiety." We are spun in the yarns of anxiety and fear. If we are freed, it will be simply marvelous! Into my FAVE.
