Ulladu Narpadu Addendum 21

Many pure souls have seen God’s face,
perhaps as a form or as light,
which no doubt is a boon of grace
but we still have not got facts right
because our perception is flawed,
so we look for God outside us
but once our attention has thawed
and we have boarded His bliss bus,
we realise all is within,
ego being nonexistent,
so in stillness as we go in,
we see the Self luminescent
and yet in truth nothing is gained,
except that having seen truth’s known,
that our soul’s light, pure and unstained,
contains the all, in Self alone.
