ah to leave the world behind
yet be part of its mix of truth and lies
attached to the anger of what i am not sure
prejudice has deep roots in fertile ground
and its watered from delusion and ignorance
yet the difference in making a difference
means something must move change from some point
so much is not right in me but now i know
forgive me dear fellows  |

As an American in a volatile, polarized nation this is my vexation. As we are pulling apart we are tearing at the seams.  |

its a very divided world maybe it has always been like this ,division within divisions ,they all rest on desire or unfullfilled desire leading to anger and then loss of discrimination ,i desire unity with my fellow man a sharing a non possesivness a common purpose for the planet the soul and everything else that lifts us to creation love or whatever you may wish to see ,is this just another trick of the mind ,the needing for goodness ? or is indifference ignorance ,turning a blind eye the way or the only way ,my strength is weak and even with my practice this ritual of day to day inward glancing its hard not to be captured by the falsehoods of representations offered to my senses ,it does go beyond the bliss of self being the oneness of unity from within something else calls knocks on the door of heart sometimes its disbelief in the whole lot and times like joke that i already know the punch line to ,i grow ,we grow, change ,and some day everything will be something else but deep inside something hurts and its not my ego but my soul that wants to be free so that others may see my freedom and want liberation to love ,ah i can but dream or is that what i am already doing blessings and love from my heart to yours

Keep your eyes on the prize, Kumar! We're closer than you think. It's right here...on the horizon.
And remember: even the suffering and delusion are divinely created. We wanted to make the movie of life full of diversity (emotionally, physically, spiritually), and haven't we succeeded?!
World peace will be all the more sweeter—knowing that we have progressed through an early stage of violence and transformed ourselves like butterflies coming out of cocoons. A profound contrast will be provided for us. Ahhh...enjoy the change.  |
