Web of Maya

Instant cognition
Of the entirety 
Defying delineation 
By the i-dentity

The seeming paradox
Is imaginary
Bemusing the wily fox
Addicted to imagery

The subtle dimension
Is indivisible 
Its rendition 
Impossible

Expansion of consciousness 
Cognising oneness & unity
Of the That awareness 
Is beyond grasp of feeble intellectuality 

So awareness just silently observes
Indulgence of he who once knew but forgot
And though it wishes to embrace & serve
For the moment, it cannot

Such is the path of our pathless sojourn
All we need to do is to undo, to erase
Egoic negativity, yet strangely we choose to burn
Man’s self inflicted pain never ceases to amaze

The instruments that are meant to serve 
By paying them over attention 
Have been pampered more than they deserve
Even in obituaries only they are mentioned!

This mayic illusion
Denying our wellness, completeness 
We may instantly end the confusion 
By humbly meditating in stillness 

To be one with the oneness
As always, with divine assistance
