In one dreadful winter night I awoke and found the Truth The self in me died And the duality melt To synchronize To become The I.
Now I am the Absolute The really Real Earlier... I was a 'being' A myopic over-bent A creature of false crisis Of Hamletian dilemmas Of Ramusian dualism Caught up in the concentric circles
I was one.... Spirited into myriad forms Of love and lust, Of desire and appetite. A pilgrim sojourning into the endless night Purblind by the dazing mirages.
I lost my way In the eternity of illusion Materiality held me Time bound me At the dead-end of my experience In the flash-back of my awareness I delved into the I And found myself in the Edenic Garden Rejoicing in the celestial music.
