The Mirror of Life

Ain't the world a mirror Glass panels are our minds I say you are bad: I am bad You say I am good: You are good You see God: there is God I see no God: there is no God The Guru says not to smoke, not to crave, I suffered in silence The Guru got nirvana: died of cancer God knows who is the judge Love, hate, fight, crib, do any Good will see good, Bad will see bad Others sit on the fence, who will go with the good or stay with the bad Do not know what to do Is nature perfect, humanity divine! You, me or they, can anyone judge Yet we be the judge: claim as ours Those who fear and can't be the judge they go to the judge created by us who sits in court in judgment on things which can't be judged Ain't the world a mirror Glass panels are our minds I say you are bad: I am bad You say I am good: You are good
