Going strictly by the scriptures
We are told we have sinned long ago
Thus, fallen status is this feeble caricature
Maya indeed veils the truth but our heart is aglow
Head and heart aligned, we are free from strife
Once attachments recede, life flow is mellow
Sermons of preachers cut us like a knife
Designed to burden us with superstitious guilt
For our sin, Jesus gave up his life, Buddha his wife
It seems impossible that this is the house God has built
Anchoring our attention in spasms of contraction
Delusion that we have sinned making us wilt
Our innate nature is joyous bliss elation
The only sin we see is with love misalignment
Owing to indulgence in illusion causing stagnation
Let us unshackle consciousness from feral sediment
Reclaiming by free will our childlike innocence
Flowing then through life in contentment
God is truth! God is love! He asks for no penance
We are free! We are as He! Being of self-luminescence
