Who Am I
If we know ourself, we’ll know the universe
but if our inquiry seeks to go in deep,
recognising touch divine does not rehearse,
we begin by letting musings inward seep,
that by melding with the void, penning soul’s verse,
between form and formlessness, we take the leap!
To get to a knowing that transcends our mind,
we shift to heart, leaving thought spirals behind.
Sans thought we are, as awareness self-aware,
alive, aglow, entwined with all existence,
igniting love, choosing with all souls to pair,
discarding beliefs, shedding our resistance,
sidestepping each and every ego spawned snare,
seeing clearly that from God there’s no distance.
All this sounds fine to hear but let’s be more clear,
feeling the life breath, that within us does spear.
In silence, sans identity, what remains,
save the pristine pulsation of love and light,
which we are but know not, bound to ego’s chains
but released we embark on a wingless flight,
with our pure heart now cleansed of erst feral stains,
as bliss effervescence cascades with delight,
in wonderment we see, God and we are one
and being His son, we shine like yonder sun!
The seeker who seeks, in truth does not exist,
for we are a soul, dwelling in body-mind
and we know this when there is no to-do list,
shifting from head to heart, choosing pathways kind,
transmuting here now, becoming a bliss mist,
mindfully playing our role, as is assigned.
Bilocation between this form and vast space,
allows us to garner clear truth, by God’s grace.
