Stillness : Betrayal

The agitated, externalised consciousness shrivels when betrayed
By a loved one ... with whom self-serving expectations are bound
The boat is rocked, there is darkness at noon, tranquility is swayed
The root cause of disorder in our life is an egoistic orientation, unsound

Stillness recognises not betrayal, having in its pristinity no matter to do so
Stillness is vibrant presence: unexpectant, alive, unclinging & ceaselessly loving
Thoughts, fears, desires, attachments all disowned, distant, ebbing & slow
When betrayal meets stillness, momentary regret arises perhaps but no misgiving

Ego invariably self-servingly seeks, narrows, deludes & bisects
Either enmeshed in past-regrets or future-fears, never in the vibrant present
Stillness nonchalantly observes, outpours love, unifies & accepts
Free flowing & dissolved yet distinct, within the exalted divine current

The stillness continuum of divine-connect
Knows only unconditional love & warm embrace
Nonjudgmental, empathetic, mindful & honestly direct
Always One with the Oneness, face to face!

***

Epilogue:

A flower is trampled upon by an unknown
By a soul gone astray
Seeds of love within the flower deeply sown
Yet for the detractor pray

So exalted love is the flowers inner wealth
That even when condemned to decadence
With its last dying breath
It pours out loving fragrance
