That sinking feeling

Identified with form, we seek outcomes,
to enhance well-being of body-mind,
so in trance we notice not how bliss hums,
until we are still and divine aligned,
as light of Self in cave of heart enshrined.
Be this as it may, caught in a rip tide,
not many can say they enjoy that ride.

Oh, this one? I use it quite often, compact, just 7 lines offering a great rhyming rhythm.
