Of Soham

[Guest guest]

AH! Oh Mother today

i sat in your yearning -

it felt like a depth -

beyond understanding.

 

I saw it arises -

from within -

when i refuse compassion -

when i refuse to love.

 

Its source is in my belief in me -

this feeling is your yearning for me.

 

Such huge compassion for me -

if only i can accept -

yet how can i -

when all that i do is your doing?

 

Ah! I see! I must meditate -

I Am He! So'- Ham So'- Ham

i am the giver -

and the receiver too.

 

All this around me -

is nothing but my attempts

to pretend i am not HE!

 

This life - this limitation

is nothing but the fruit of denial

denial of So' - Ham, I Am He!

 

Such confusion - such pain -

all denial - all distraction

from So' - Ham I Am He! -I Am He!

 

Billions of things - countless atoms

All emotion - all nothing but denial

denial of So' - Ham, I Am He!

 

Oh Mother, So' - Ham, I Am He!

Teach me this truth of So' - Ham.
