And freezing,
Everything is falling apart
In silence, but firmly.
I don’t understand
And, decided not to understand.
For in nature, a tiny creature like me
Plays only a fractional game
Without experiencing the whole.
Scathing illusions render me helpless
That glittering life is but eternal choice,
Until in wholeness I dissolve my mind
Never will I grasp the truth that oneness is the only choice.
I care not to know the reasons
Because in pain,
I still wish things be pleasant
Everything comes and goes,
In nature’s dictation
The wholeness completes the cycle.
Barren and pricking at times
Yet, this is but a mystery
I often wonder since decades ago
Of what becomes of mankind in dissolution?
I fear for the worst long long ago
Before I realised
It’s always there by my side.
Clinging attachment
Rarely departs without grief
For I know, we know not
In the wholeness of life
We are but only a fraction.
So what matters?
Whether it becomes or not,
In death, life blossoms eternally.

ReplyDeleteI know this feeling very well, Cyclop
ReplyDeleteAnd as you said we need not understand all of it...Just know our purpose in life and move on...rest life will take us through...
just seek light..and keep moving -- then its a joyous ride...

when i read dissolution, it reminds me of that chapter in Yoga vasistha volume 2.
ReplyDeleteA tough one to read. Hope all is well with you my friend.
