Vultures feed off the dead, therefore we are worried seeing them overhead, as fearful thought spirals, hovering in our head. Vultures feed off the dead, so it’s time to reflect on dark desires ill bred, grown out of proportion, since we’re by instincts led. Vultures feed off the dead, thus we must be a corpse, roaming on earth with dread, in bondage to desires, whose roots in us have spread. Vultures feed off the dead but we’re soul eternal refusing to be bled by cravings of ego, choosing God’s light instead. 03-July-2022

Vultures are condemned to darkness of hell.

I wish to be freed from this mortal coil. Oh, to be a pure serene soul, with vultures held at bay.

Freedom’s here now, within mind-body, not in an imagined hereafter, Robert :) we can, if we choose, abide in thought rested silence, which then is vivified by God’s magnetism. Give it any name, Holy Spirit, Kundalini, Chi … all these labels point out to the same.
