Looking toward skies, feet on ground
Fears and desires, twirl us around
Although soul seeks God’s love and light
Patterns of habit, hold us bound
Scriptures speak of spherical sight
Bliss in permanence, day and night
Ours for asking, if our thoughts die
Ego death contracts heart in fright
Clinging to life’s the reason why
We attempt not to wingless fly
How may we dissolve in the stream
Fear of unknown, makes our heart sigh
We’re told that this life but a dream
Within us in-dwells God supreme
Die to be reborn is the clue
Counsel unheeded, since fears scream
Within our form, flows life force dew
Bliss nectar; truth known to but few
Cognised in stillness, if heart pure
Melding therein, blessings accrue
Ego warns ‘how can we be sure?’
Thus trauma bonding, pain endure
In dark dungeons of delusion
Even though conscience does censure
Brave souls who exit illusion
Put an end to all confusion
Fusing head with heart, love aligned
Bringing about divine fusion
Playing life role, in as assigned
In timeless time, clear truth’s divined
That ego shorn, we are twice born
Free from transient attachment’s bind
Hark oh hermit, to God’s love horn
Too long in darkness, we’ve lived on
Time’s now to see God face to face
Let Christ consciousness, soul adorn
