Notice our subtle resistance Manifest as hesitancy Mitigating exuberance Our lower mind delinquency Myriad illusions confound Notice our subtle resistance We are yet to mind-body bound Recognising not divine dance We first look to our convenience Subject-object relationship Notice our subtle resistance Foolish game of one-upmanship Oh hermit, know God alone is Rekindle innate innocence Imbibe elixir of bliss fizz Notice our subtle resistance 23-June-2021

If we are to have a choice we must always have a subject-object relationship. Question is who determines the right or wrong.

In a dream, we are the dreamer (subject) as also the dreamed individuated object, feeling separate from other objects … all being dreamed by us, the subject. If this life is a dream, we are an object, not the subject. So, how may the object awaken within the dream, being dreamed by the subject? Reflect on this. I’d like to host a contest on this theme but I guess the entries will be limited.
