THE PATH AND THE GOAL

1.Seek the Supreme Awareness, seek the One

Seek the Substratum of all, reckless one!

When the time to depart reaches close

You won’t be saved by quote and prose

So seek the Ground of all, seek it now!

 

2. Stop craving for wealth, dear fool!

Cleanse the heart and be ever mindful

Whatever you get by your own effort

Enjoy that alone and always be a sport

Just seek the Ground of all, seek it now!

 

3. So long as you can earn and save

People will show concern and behave

But when creep in old age and disease

All their care, respect and word cease.

So seek the Ground of all, seek it now!

 

4. Pride not in your youth, wealth and power

Time wipes off even the mightiest tower

Knowing all this as an ephemeral game

Awaken and kindle the divine flame

Hence seek the Ground of all, seek it now!

 

5. Prayers, pilgrimages and austerity

Avail not; nor does any strong pledge!

For, who is devoid of self-knowledge,

Remains in bondage for an eternity

So seek the Ground of all, seek it now!

 

6. In silence or in great celebration

In company or in deep seclusion

Whose mind revels constantly in Unity

He alone enjoys the bliss of Divinity

Just seek the Ground of all, seek it now!

 

7. A new birth; one more in the tomb;

Another helplessly lying in the womb;

Impossible to avoid this terrible fire

Unless one realizes the Self Higher

So seek the Ground of all, seek it now!

 

8. The goal is within thy own self

The real path is thy own consciousness

All you need is deep alertness

Delve within and know thy real self

So seek the Ground of all, seek it now.

 

9. Thou that art, That thou art

Realize this within thy heart

Embrace the path of meditation

And reach thy true destination.

The Ground of all is thy own Self.
