INWARD TURNING

Driving the mind inwards, to Self Realisation,
He grants safe passage through life's stormy ocean.
What frail soul will ever be excluded
From the presence of the Holy Supreme?
No matter how depraved or deluded,
His mercy ne'er ends, 'twill always redeem,
Raising the soul from the depth of depression,
And  free one from the `I am the body' obsession.
From passion that churns desire and aversion,
His fresh breeze wafts clear equanimity,
Enmeshed no more in worldly adversity,
Never perturbed by praise nor foul enmity.
We learn that there's the greatest giving
In knowing all are the Self, and are so truly living.
