Guest guest Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 SELF ABIDANCE Deep poise in Self alone is sure release From nescient net of perverse mental pain. Only a practiced well skilled subtle brain Can swim the lake of light in perfect peace. When one's wander-lust does end and cease, And restless mind keeps quiet on restful plain, Like dry parched dust settled by summer rain, Abiding still at heart will calmly please. By sharp sword of steel discrimination keen, Between the false unreal and truly real, The pinioned mortal soul may also feel Joy divine, detached from worldly scene. Soon mental mire and wounded body heal From trouble toil of torrid thought's machine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
