Vbt Practice 61 of 112

We go in deep
Into waking, dreaming & deep sleep

Recognising singularity 
Astonished at duality
When bliss does us smother
Who is the other?

We thus contemplate 
God being in all states
What is the source of awareness
Where resides memory in consciousness 

Between the differentiated states of being
Or in the void of cessation of breath flowing
Or the one becoming two to climax in union
Let the pause of eternity be God meditation 

Slipping gently from state of waking to dreaming
Where falls the tumbler if awareness be unblinking
Likewise who is the mover, the cogniser in the void
Which aspect is disconcerted whilst yet overjoyed

The web of maya having layers enticing stagnation 
Each revelation we behold yet bound in limitation
When the cogniser of experience himself disappears
No questions remain as Shiva Himself appears!
