When our eye be single

Intuitively labelling objects,
attention fixated on illusions,
we see only what lower mind reflects,
coming to erroneous conclusions,
thus nurturing deepening delusions.
Tied to mind”s tree, we can never be free
but if we dwell in the vast void carefree,
our soul presence is then divine aligned,
ego recedes and head and heart agree;
soul’s eye opens, on bed of truth reclined.

Dear US, Well inked! I loved how you showed that when we rely solely on our lower mind and ego, we become trapped in illusions and delusions. But when we transcend the ego and align with our soul or higher consciousness, we can achieve a state of clarity, inner peace, and spiritual alignment. AMEN!!! Autumn Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
