Dive into the dark depths
Of the unfathomable sea
Of the baffling human mind;
Explore the concealed layers
From its surface, ever active and restless;
Slowly sink into the sub-conscious
And the more powerful unconscious mind
That regulates vital functions ceaselessly,
Remaining silent and invisible, all the while.
* Move deeper until you reach the source
  And find life's perennial spring
   From from your innermost being
  Into the boundless universe, ever expanding,
  Beyond the confines of the sensuous mind.
  When this inward journey, spiritual,
   Brings insight into the subtle working  
   Of the hidden mind, you emerge wiser
   And stronger than ever before
   To weather the storms of life, ephemeral,
   And realize man's fervent prayer -
   "Lead us from Darkness to Light"-
   " Thamasoma Jyothirgamaya " ,
    The ultimate aim of all mankind.
                       **  Narasimhamurthy, M.G.
* In order to achieve this, one should strive to discipline one's  body, mind and intellect and attain tranquility and poise. All religions suggest practical methods. In Indian Philosophy,  Patanjali's 'Ashtaanga Yoga' is very well-known.
