Unseeking Seeker Poet Jueju

Truth as it appears

On waking from sleep,
before thought forms leap,
we in all fairness,
are pure awareness.

Alive and able
but with no label,
we are as we are,
a luminous star.

Remaining thus we
mirrorlessly see
with our inner sight,
that we’re living light.

Then looking at form,
manifests a storm
related to fear
of body held dear.

Putting thoughts on pause,
we discern the cause
of meanings assigned,
from truth misaligned.

Victor Buhagiar November 16, 2023 at 2:00 AM What is truth? asked Pilate. No answer. for truth is too immense for us to understand. Blessings. Unseeking Seeker November 16, 2023 at 2:13 AM To find truth that transcends mind, we must leave thoughts behind.
