THE LIGHT WITHIN

To discover the blazing light within
Is to discover the surrendered and innocent state
That is prior to any conditioning

To claim this and court it consciously
Is our inalienable right
As sovereign beings on this plane of existence

There is nothing wrong with anyone
Except thinking makes it so
But all this thinking is only the surface chatter
And deep below, way down,
Sometimes imperceptibly elusive
Is the blazing light
Of our essence

Throw off the shackles once and for all
And know the light that lights you
It is always there, but you have been wandering
Thinking you are lost, searching high and low,
For something that has never left you.
