LIBERATION

From Liberation is there anything to gain?
Freedom from suffering and endless rebirth,
That's the precious pearl of Realisation's worth,
So from sadhana never cease or complain,
There's need to cleanse the mind from ev'ry stain,
The end of life's dream isn't the end of mirth,
For with emancipation there's no drought or dearth
Of perfect joy and blessed bliss beyond all pain,
A life of sunshine without dark disaster's reign.

A Pilgrim climbing slowly up the mountain path,
Was refreshed by a shower of grace divine,
'Twas as if washed pure and clean in a sacred bath
Of Love, much sweeter than costly vintage wine.
So from Liberation there's no need to fear,
The keynote is persistence and effort most sincere.
