Unseeking Seeker Poet Rhyme

the practice

the soul that fell
must cleanse its heart
before reuniting with source
recognising all as one and none apart

just as dawn’s first light is clearly beheld
awakening too must be free from fear
with all ego spawned desires ended
whence light of God draws near

mindfulness is the key
breath by breath self-aware
remaining in a stillness continuum 
seeing ego spawned thoughts as a snare

save obliterating ego there seems no way
living out our earth life in total surrender 
radiating the effervescence of love
felt as soundless bliss thunder

Daniel Henry Rodgers April 9, 2026 at 9:15 AM Dear US, the phrase "soundless bliss thunder" that paradox where the greatest power is found in the deepest quiet. I’ve spent a lot of time observing how the ego sets its snares, and you’re right that the only way through is the breath-by-by-breath awareness that refuses to take the bait. Total surrender is often mistaken for a lack of will. Yes, it’s actually a radical, radiant act of strength. Loved reading this morning, Daniel Unseeking Seeker April 9, 2026 at 9:43 AM Yes, Daniel, surrender actually means that the surrenderer, the ego too disappears, paving way for recognition of our true Self, which is what the sage Ramana Maharishi pointed out to with his inquiry, ‘who am I?’ Thank you for your deep, insightful comments.
