Deep into the forest I tread,
Nothing along but a sense of dread.
The gloomy canopy
Of the spectral gigantic trees
Block the clear sky,
Led solely by
The unblinking third eye.
Lost amidst bewilderment,
Blindfolded by the guileful semblence.
Darkness misleads the way,
Wolf hunts in a deer veil.
There is woven a web of lies,
But Allurement is yet to overwhelm
The unblinking third eye.
A path made of thorns,
There is blood trail all along.
The smell incites the beasts,
Lurking around to prey upon.
Every moment, a wrestle to live or die,
Yet accompanied by
The unblinking third eye.

Unblinking Third Eye
Unblinking third eye!
The serene sublime soul shines
watching mind and brain,
giving errand to entwine
emotion and ambition.
Unblinking third eye!
sends rays piercing mind-brain
guarding and guiding
on action-interaction
directing for unison.

Chakra midst the forehead; way to spiritual empire;
Symbol of complete consciousness and ethical umpire;
Disposition of enlightenment; corporeal world;
Integral unity; angelic wisdom within furled...!
Myths speak of Lord Shiva comprehending through his third eye;
He could annul ignorance; see yonder limits of sky;
The mystical clairvoyance is on; inner sight glazes;
Purple splendor like Amethyst; wisdom within blazes...!
Single-mindedness, precision, inspiration, insight,
Unblinking third eye is continually glowing light;
Perceiving the world sacredly; connecting to cosmos;
Within ever-shining divinity it does engross...!
Abolishing dubiety, vagueness and skepticism,
Uprooting adverse weeds of purposelessness and pessimism;
Gives coherence, assiduousness, spontaneity,
Leads to endless bliss; merging with eternal deity...!

Magnetic connect,
select and effect,
as of heart’s yearning
and desires burning.
Vibrational touch
sans mind’s thought flow crutch,
enabled by grace,
pierces veil of space.
No jigsaw puzzles
mire, as love nuzzles
core of our being,
for direct seeing.
Yet it’s all in vain,
since boon becomes bane.
Why’d we wish to see
lust, pride and envy?
Each realm or domain,
in timeless time’s slain,
being but desire,
of our heart afire.
Mind, body, third eye;
they all make soul sigh,
for we’re now weary
of thought forms dreary.
Every instrument
must be decadent
to secure release,
that we flow with ease.
Source of every thought
is ego begot
or desire of soul,
wishing to feel whole.
Thus, when we let go
of this dream world’s flow,
as our soul’s end game,
we become the flame.
