The Reverie

The Reverie

Empty handed I go

Yet a spade is in my hand

I walk on foot

Yet I am riding at the same time

When I cross the river

The bridge flows & the water is still

~

Spirit within, spirit of bliss

the long lost mystery,

Abandoned by the world 

(Wounded soul in suffering)

A world fixated on words

  which are void and vain.

Vainly is the world

enslaved by our vanity

π

Human quest & its woes

shall never end

while darkness &

light remain separate

 The wounded soul

will not be made whole,

Till the flesh starts speaking

  the words of soul!

I am the flower, I the seed;

For I do know

that in whatever I see

   I am a part of, and it in me.

~

There is a flame within me

that has stood unmoved,

untroubled through the years.

( The Flame of Satori )

•¢•

Knot Knowing, nor love,

nor laughter, hope nor fears,

nor foolish throb of ill.

~

I feel no shadow of

the winds that sear

 I hear no whisper

of a tide that veers,  

I weave no thought of passion,

nor of tears, unfettered of time

& self attachment

~

I know no death that chills;

I fear no fate, nor fashion,

cause nor creed,

I shall outdream the slumber

of my darkest other,

( I know no birth)

This is Sunya

☯️

 The systems darken,

& our implicit conceiving soars;

adrift of opinions, would we harken,

Benumbed Beats a

clayshuttered heart.

Keep the inner sanctum sacred;

Turn a stone Buddha

Into a living Buddha

(To see that many-splendoured thing)

🙏
