Why do we abandon the
true essence of ourselves,
and accept minds shuttered
and shadowed?
Why do we avoid the joyful
soul and crave a life of limitations?
Fresh and eternal transition
awaits before death.
Take refuge in the quiet voice
that speaks within every soul.
Plant the seeds of self-truth and
ascend in perfect balance.
A mind full of light
progresses faster.
