18.81
“The sage neither yearns for fulfilment
nor frets over non-attainment
His mind is cool
and brimming with sweetness”
Desire being for connecting
Not for attaining
For if the connection is seamless
We are in divine entwined blissfulness

Verse revisited on 11-March-2022
Be our seeking relate to this world external ephemeral
Or of benedictions manifest within the body internal
As long as an identity claims ownership on boons
In deep hypnotic trance our awareness swoons
Failing to recognise the universe’s within us
Thus outcomes any, why for make a fuss
Delighting as petals of heart lotus blossom
Unveiling Christ consciousness in our bosom
Revealing soul’s God-essence as spirit unbound
Imbibing love by touch, with our feet on holy ground
Lower mind drops away and with it disappears desire
In but not of the world, our blissful aliveness, a living fire
