bliss of peace

[Guest guest]

The bliss of peace is too good to be disturbed.

A man fast asleep hates to be awakened and

ordered to mind his business.

The bliss of sleep is too enthralling to be

sacrificed to the work born of thoughts.

The thought-free state is one's primal state

and full of bliss. Is it not miserable to leave

such a state for the thought-ridden and

unhappy one?

 

Of one wants to abide in the thought-free state,

a struggle is inevitable. One must fight one's

way through before regaining one's original

primal state. If one suceeds in the fight and

reaches the goal, the enemy, namely the thoughts,

will all subside in the Self and disappear entirely.

The thoughts are the enemy. They amount to the

creation of the Universe. In their absence there

is neither the world nor God the Creator. The

Bliss of the Self is the single Being only.
