In the clutches of the mind

 
 

 

Someone who is in the middle
Of his demanding mind
Running after desires, worldly pleasures
Is a slave of his mind
Acts with ego, anger
Attachment, lust and greed
Remains unteachable
Until he understands
Learns through suffering and pain…

Ready for eternity?

 

 

The bridge from pleasures of the world
To become a tool in the hands of God
Is a way of making decisions
To live for Him, with Him eternally

Wishes and pleasures are tempting
Draw attention in all direction
Are not focused, absorbed in Him
Prevent full concentration

With stops and go indecisions are made
Preferred to bath in pleasures
To push off the ultimate decision
To enter into Oneness

As long as mind is besmeared with dust and matter
The soul cannot be ready for her last step
To live without ego in His light
To become one with the One

This bridge, a way from ourselves to “our” Selves
From our being to His Being…

Borrowed Happiness

 

 

Every possession only possesses us…
Embedded in our ego, mind
Imprisons, steals our attention
In the focus of worldly pleasures
To make us believe
We are the owner
Own, possessing things
Identified with them
Distracted for one reason…

Who is the real owner?…

Three ways: World, Heaven, God

 

 

Most people go the way of the world.
With a view to amenities and happiness
For money, lust, pleasure, prosperity, prestige
They sacrifice and forget their real task

Then there are people, pious egoists.
They put on the scales what they’ve done for God.
They want a deal with God: Salvation
But wear the belt of pride

Few are willing to give everything to God:
The body, the life, the head, the heart, the mind, the soul.
To lead a pure life, to surrender themselves completely
To love God without a reward

First way: Bondage of desire and attachment
Second way: Good deeds embedded in pride, demands
Third way: Complete surrender, true love

Path 1: Coming and going in the wheel of life/death
Path 2: Travelling between the worlds of beginning and ending
Path 3: Arrival in the true Home of God, Oneness
