Zen Mode
sitting motionless
mood meditative
awareness expanded
enveloping the universe
as I so became and felt
God’s breath as my own
indwelling all forms
emerging from the immersion
lower mind posed a simple question:
we cannot be where we already are not
which led to the simple recognition
that we are as God when mind is still
and captive to ego when thoughts arise
it being our will where we choose to be
with each intermediate awakening
we get to a definitive knowing
enabled by so becoming
nothing changes
life goes on as before
but earlier we were ignorant
and now with this knowing
we are equanimous
