Notes About The Poem

Reincarnation

When our heart sets a goal, mind so aligns to fulfil the quest, hoping for fulfilment. For desires ego driven, goalposts shift and horizons fade, life whizzes by and death knocks our door, whereupon heart seeks an action replay. We thus take birth on earth, time and again, until heart is calmed in staid silence, knowing soul is not mind-body, thus bending in surrender to divine will alone, letting go of fear, in childlike trust, whereupon our heart glows. 02-September-2021

..."buy of me gold tried in the fire"...this is a beautifully poetic play on the purification by reincarnation as a spiritually cleansing process
