Nirvana

We lead a life of duality, mostly sad We all seek a life full of eternal joy Where people around are not bad A life in which we always enjoy Is it possible to be full of bliss A bliss that is ceaseless never ends Such life no one would want to miss A joyous life without any bends We suffer as we associate with body We are not body, but soul internal Once we get salvation, in samadhi We experience boundless bliss eternal Then we see our true self seated within From this body and world we get detached We see our soul within God, seated therein Leaving world, to God we become attached Then we go to the world of souls Wherein perpetual bliss abounds We live with God and other souls Our true self we have finally found Try for salvation, let it be your only aim Don't bother about transient worldly gain With dedication, salvation you can claim Efforts in this direction never go vain 15.06.2021 submitted to Constance La France ''N'' Poems, New or old

Truly eternal bliss is the promise for the pilgrims of this world who seek God's face as we stumble often but don't take our eye off of the prize. Lovely and profound my friend. Congratulations for your win. Blessings for your journey to bliss.

WoW! Rama, What a powerful and profound on how one could live a life of “ endless bliss.” I was moved by what you wrote. I will ponder the message after I've finished reading it. Excellent job. I'm adding this to my fav collection:-) Alexis

I think even the way we think of bliss is way off. The gentleness of the Lord who can fathom, though he judges having seen things from the beginning to the end. Bliss is not boring, though I think some are afraid it will be. I think of the times (rare) where I feel pure euphoria and I think heaven must feel like that. God bless!

I fully agree with you!. I have at rare times experienced bliss and that makes me wanting for more. I too think heaven must be like that. I want salvation and heaven,a big dream indeed!
