Plotting Our Life Journey
Life journey simple
Let us see how it went
Beginning with thoughts nimble
Entrapped by ego which would not relent
Let us then separate wheat from the chaff
Lest our tale become too long and weary
Bubbling along through many a gaffe
We found peace in life sedentary
Childhood playful innocence
Shifting to an aspect self serving
As we strangled voice of our conscience
Soon ailing from fears and desires spiralling
Mistakenly believing ourself as mind body
We remained for long thus in delusion
Grovelling amidst thoughts shoddy
Witnessing our contraction
Life of struggle and strife
Induced us to adopt ways impure
One day cutting through us like a knife
We heard a loving voice within gently censure
In an instant we got to the clear recognition
Joy eternal elusive in the ephemeral
Thus we internalised attention
Beholding Gods miracle
Abiding in inner silence
Illusionary bondage fell away
Entwined with the divine in parlance
Slowly our fickle attention ceased to sway
No doing was done save choosing to align
Merging by melting into the current
Blissful rapture our new sun sign
By being here & now present
Thus twice born we live on
Embracing each breath in wonder
No one within with ego cravings shorn
As we be to become the soundless thunder
Thus we are now and thus we do remain
Gently flowing within the life current
Presence vibrant and unstained
Blissful in our native element
