What was said vs understood?

[Unseeking Seeker]

In the beginning, all that was, was living light eternal
Vibrant in time and space dissolved ineffable peace
Pulsating endlessly in a singularity transcendental
Sans identity, with no attribute, we were and still are
One without a second, awareness self-aware
Feeling complete thus, as a receptor of God’s light
Our true essence, made in God’s image, in heaven
Required no coming or going or doing to be done

To be enabled as a transmitter of love and light
That we may do on earth as it is in heaven
We, as the individuated essence of God, consented
To lessen ourselves by entering a realm of duality
With memory erased and awareness differentiated
That by first descending and then ascending
We garner knowledge of sunken vibrations
Co-creating with God therein, His sublime luminosity

Thus, what is termed in the scriptures as fall from grace
Is in truth merely polarisation of our eternal light
That dwelling in this density upon earth in organic form
We feel pang of separation as also the joy of union
Recognising that agape love is the only unifying force
Yet with the veil of forgetting plunging us in deep trance
We begin to believe decaying mind-body as our true self
Failing to comprehend that ego identity is but an interface

With this preamble, the conceptual understanding is clear
That if the baton of our awareness lies in hands of the ego
Our soul, whose light is veiled, is forced to live in darkness
Cause of our suffering being a shadow cast by lower mind
Then just as narrated in Plato’s allegory of the cave
Bemused by illusions, we trauma bond with delusion
Conjuring imaginary worlds speaking of sin, birthing anguish
Fearing hell, being but an untruth holding us in captivity

Given our piquant dilemma, our fate seems sealed but not quite
In His infinite wisdom, God has instilled in us His love and light
He speaks to us as the voice of conscience in soft whispers
However, to communicate with God, we must internalise attention
For which the incessant chatter of thought spirals must cease
Thoughts in turn are spawned by misaligned desires of our heart
Therefore to enter silence, we must meld with the vast void
Poised in a state of no-mind, attentive and receptive, we awaken

The blueprint now known, we must choose to walk the path
It is a journey without movement to wake up in this lucid dream
All that it takes is to first recognise we are not merely this form
The next step is to do nothing, save remaining in tranquil stillness
Just as water seeks its own level, divine magnetism is drawn in
Hitherto dormant nodes within form are energised by Holy Spirit
Polarities separated during our descent, reunite creating bliss
In timeless time ego falls away and we reclaim inner light of Self
