SELF'S LIGHT

SELF'S LIGHT

When all lights go off

the Self's light is awake,

when utter darkness prevails,

the lamp of self never fails.

Amidst lightning flash

wheel of fire whirling,

in golden letters effulging

the divine commandments.

The rule of right,

the kingdom of truth,

the dawn of peace shall come

when everyone joins the ministry of love.

BUDDHA -CHRIST

All revelations

flow from world's travails,

all crescents and crosses.

Lotussed cross,

the key to life divine,

the arc of grace.

Buddha-Christ,

the heroic bringers of light

from the tyranny of soul-killing might.

Truth on cross hanging,

Yet the felicity of it you will know

through crucifixion and resurrection.

I AM SELF

Deathless is my spirit

by no fire singed,

no water wetted,

no wind dried,

no weapon slain.

I am Self

all-pervading,

knowing all,

seeing all,

beyond words,

unfathomable, unbounded, forever free.

I AM LIGHT

Racing heavens ever attuned,

heart-throb of galactic glens

where lord-borne cattles go grazing,

I am the wombing void.

In my musical scale many a near and distant sun,

in benighted chaos

orchestrate the musical band

on eternity's symphonic scale.

My live orchestra is hidden

in dense forests of stars

in frenzied flight of flaming skies

in giddied motion of whirling galaxies.

I am fire of life in ashen gloom,

the symphonic song of spheres,

the aching mystery of black holes,

the timeless void of creativity.

I SHALL COME AGAIN

Reverberating the galaxied resonance

of serenading heavens--

countless earths, star systems and suns,

in gloried splendor I forever dwell.

Freed from tearing travails

my soul takes wings

and soars to celestial heights

where silence rings and sings.

None there to disturb my sleep,

enchanting the silence deep,

reflecting on what liberates

I raise a stair to the ultimate.

A whisper from infinite:

"I shall come again

to hew a heaven on earth

dear me! keep aloft your spirit

let it be not put out."

"I am not alone

many others before me

in different tongues have sung

of family of one earth.

My mission,

to sow seeds of this timeless truth

on the earth entire

to awaken the new dawn of spring.
