the way we are

the dream unfolds, which we behold
as stories in new forms retold 
where since we choose to don a form
we must suffer both heat and cold 

with divine magnetism conform
that grazed by bliss waves cool and warm
to pain and decay then immune
we’re at peace in love’s benign storm

soul sings a melodious tune
hymn of grace with which we attune
whence awash in love, light and bliss
in splendour of God’s light we swoon

ego says something is amiss
that we we fall in an abyss
mind games to deflect attention
to feel not kundalini’s kiss

dismissing ego’s dissension
maintaining thoughts in suspension 
we rekindle the heart’s bliss flame
paving way for our ascension 

God realisation’s our aim
so treating life as but a game
as a dweller of the vast void
there remain no demons to tame

no longer by thought forms decoyed,
in time delusion is destroyed,
whence on ego death we then see
light of Self pure and unalloyed

back to form head and heart agree
and free from desires we are free
having pierced the veil of space-time
where all is one and there’s no ’me’

suffused with divine mists sublime
no peaks remain for us to climb
thus bliss replete we feel complete 
with heart conjuring a love rhyme
