Love Thyself
I like listening to myself
I like to follow my intuations
I like unplanned, surprise date
I like not to go over
I like doing silly things sometimes
I like being weak and strong
I like to be just me
I like to say thanks
I like to thank myself, too.

Thyself
Anxiety and shame riddled my youth and I just wanted to belong
The desire to excel and conform was beyond measure
The painful difficulties of youth are rarely validated
Being told to follow your hero but blaze your trail
Follow the shadow but color inside the lines
Neverendingly seeking the rightly wise
I finally woke up one day and

Know Thyself in all your ways
to Stoke the Ember of the Sacred Flame,
and let Hope Shine and Guide "The Way"
as the Spirit is Filled by the Fiery Ray,
and Trust, You Must, For Narrow is the Gate
to find the Key, One must find the Sage
through the Veils and Mists

Know Thyself
Who am I, mind asks,
whilst vibrant heart basks
in tingle of bliss,
graced by Mother’s kiss.
Resting thought flow crutch,
learning by love’s touch,
we become God’s light,
that throbs with delight.
When heart’s pure like snow,
we then get to know,
who in truth we are,
shining like a star.
Everything is clear,
when God’s light draws near,
which we may invoke,
on donning love’s yoke.

To Cast A Spell Upon Thyself
To cast a spell upon thyself
and lend a helping hand to those in need
erasing all narcissistic ways of life
and wiping out all selfish greed
to live within this Universe
as a child of God that does all good
scratching out misconduct's brew
as every human oft should do
to breathe the peace

Know Thyself
~ KNOW THYSELF
Honest examination brings truth
~ KEEP IT REAL
It saves you from the need to convince others through a multitude of words
~ DO NOT MANIPULATE
It is an act of psychological violence
~ BE CONSISTENT
It is the foundation of trust
~ SAY WHAT YOU MEAN AND MEAN WHAT YOU SAY
Why say something that lacks integrity?
~ WALK LIKE YOU

Heal Thyself O Patient - V
Debate also should rage if doctors know
The mystery that human body is:
It takes two hundred muscles, all on go
To take but one baby step with some ease,
Body veins stretched, end to end were to ply,
Two rounds around Earth’s bosom well are made,
Body cells in millions when daily die,
An

Heal Thyself O Patient - IV
In prison, and bereft of all defence,
But my Healer, graver than ever ere,
Swirls his chair round, yon of window to stare
As if to get inspired from Providence.
More of a dumb than mute, I curse my fate,
But happy he feels that it’s my left hand,
We’ll amputate it if we cannot mend,

Heal Thyself O Patient - III
What else but weight endless for devil’s due?
And I’d need a few more tests to be sure,
Grimace or grin, but I ought to endure,
What greater devil was seemed like dawn’s dew:
Was it ailment or treatment of elbow?
Grey visions of an endless dark tunnel
Flashed in my mind, as dark and

Heal Thyself O Patient - II
Proffered no reprieve, led was I like cow
By clinic’s nurse to slaughterhouse, I thought,
The wise me cursing the rebel me now,
All mute, betwixt devil-pain-and-doc caught.
Take thermal waves— weighty words waft from her,
And every day— we can’t let it get worse—
She, pontiff like, her wisdom did aver,
I learn to

Heal Thyself O Patient - I
Two scores and more years back, as I recall,
I find my left elbow pounding with pain
Mere bending it when turned a task no small,
And left me clueless for the cause for strain.
As unknown to us seasons oft set in
Early or late till one day forced are we
To tune unto

Give Me Thyself
Give me the roots
I'll build the tree
Give me the weather
I'll shoot out the branches and leaves
Give me the buds
I'll make bloom there the petals
Give me the south breeze
I'll spread the fragrance
Give me the whole canvas
I'll nurture for you the garden
O darling give me thyself too close
I'll offer that as Eden garden
Where you and I

Heal Thyself
Reflect on this proverb, oh worthy hermit
'A chain is only as strong as its weakest link'
So let us look deep within the core of our being
To discern the cause why time and again we sink
Bemused by myriad illusions our mind is hypnotised
Flitting about unsatiated between objects of desire
But fleeting moments of joy are followed by

Learn Thyself
Come to me O dear child and come to learn
It’s life, sharp time-based for every human
O you have to learn thyself to shirk mourn
None helps you to be always in good sane
Always be helpful and control yourself
Positive sense makes you a cheerful mind
Love is the great lesson of life to help
Avoiding hatred makes your great
