EGO MIND

Egotistic mind is a devilish terror,

Continually leading us into error,

Wandering mad cap illusive and perverted,

It ever causes intent to be diverted

From Self Remembrance the primary aim of life,

The blissful state of sat chit anandda rife.

It must be controlled by disciplined rigour,

Using breath control and japa with vigour,

Otherwise 'twill waste life's ulitmate aim

To free oneself from samsara in the name

Of Truth and state of blest Self Realisation,

No more in earth's prison house but liberation.

So demon mind is a wicked merciless thief

To end his tyranical days will bring great relief.
