Verse 18.4 revisited on 29-December-2021
18.4
“The universe is but a thought in Consciousness
In Reality it is nothing
One who sees the true nature of existence and non-existence
never ceases to exist”
We look not askance
At consciousness in trance
For unless subject and object merge
We experience not in fullness the bliss surge
However when our attention is distilled
Voids within with God’s love filled
There remains no separation
In single pointed attention
Our consciousness expands
Higher mind instantly understands
That the universe is contained within us
All of creation but thoughts of love and animus
A dream world manifest by heart’s desire
Once cravings consigned to the pyre
All that is, is God consciousness
Absolute non-dual awareness
