Zen Mode
I am the subject as eternal awareness
I as subject look at myriad objects
I engage, embrace and release
The objects are not me
They hold no allure
I am always free
My mind-body is an object
I live in this vessel but I’m not it
The body’s cravings are not mine
I may choose to humour it or I may not
I am as I am the subject who is always free
Thought too is an object
It is abstract but yet an object
So I, being subject, look at thought
I engage, embrace and release
The thoughts are not me
They hold no allure
I am always free
