The Lower Realms
The soul wanderer reached a lower realm
He was offered Siddhis, women and wealth
Love suffused heart, having God at the helm
Saw ego’s serpentine approach in stealth
What avail power, when God search our aim
Why pander to lust, since life ebbs away
Once enlivened by bliss, we’re not the same
Rapture by day and night, that’s here to stay
Ensouling mind-body, love flame steady
Joyous soul entwines with Holy Spirit
Gong of truth within signals we’re ready
To plunge in the void and reach the summit
All’s enabled when desires we let go
Renounce oh hermit, cravings of ego
