Separating the Wheat From the Chaff

Duality which is in motion must be stilled
If we would observe singular reality within
Muddied waters need to be distilled 
Only when the mists clear, may meditation begin

Perpetual motion of body, senses & thought
Grooves of habit having huge momentum 
Repressed subconscious fears & desires, which we forgot
Are all our nemesis resident in the egos sanctum

Without stopping that which is in motion
Negativity may yet be abdicated
By disassociation 
In four easy steps to a consciousness elevated 

Contemplation 
Acceptance 
Transformation 
Transcendence 

Four effortless steps to permanent wellness
Of which only the first two we need to walk
The last two bestowed by the Universe in stillness 
So simple, so easy, yet strangely we balk!
