Awake weary pilgrim

How can we see, if we be blind to touch of God, loving and kind, for though He seeks to set us free, if we be blind, how can we see? Mind of our soul, within heart sleeps, insentient to love’s bliss beeps, so we must awake, to feel whole; within heart sleeps, mind of our soul. God’s light within, our ego veils, incessantly presence assails and as we sink deeper in sin, our ego veils, God’s light within. Our ego dies when thoughts recede and with love as our sturdy steed, our consciousness reaches new highs; when thoughts recede, our ego dies. In timeless time, we merge with God, ocean of love that leaves us awed and as we so heavenward climb, we merge with God in timeless time.

today I do feel like a weary pilgrim :-) but your words reminded me 'to be beyond ego's veil.' When I do, weariness dissipates. Enjoyed your words today.

Not easy to forget oneself. We do think we are gods. But as we realise we are not, then bliss must uplift us. A poem that has many merits.

It is simple really, Victor. There is no Victor, as in identity. Drop thought, be still. Enter subjective awareness, that is, awareness with no object in view (thought is also an abstract object). Then, the true being which makes Victor seem to exist is known, as living light of Self in singularity.
