Shiva, blessed light

Shiva the blessed light
free within as the self
without covers
thou is within all
now

Shiva the blessed light
sitting inside as beauty and peace
everlasting
substantial in fullness and glory
what all is made identical to
minus the drama driven way
thou is within all
now

Shiva the blessed light
that cannot come under the spell
of maya
that is without separation
and has no name, face or form
and nothing to prop itself up
or take itself down
as there is nothing other within
only this
thou is within all
now

Shiva the blessed light
beautiful as the manifest
in emptiness
and as spirit pure and holy
undying
untouched by sorrow or change
eternally free
thou is within all now

Shiva the blessed light
that does not come or go
that does not fear, pray or lament
being happiness and joy
unencumbered in itself
what is there to do
or to seek?
when all is pure peace
and has never not been
beauty that is
uncovered
when mind stills
thou is within all
now

Shiva the blessed light
filled with grace
glorious as the open sky
deep as the oceans
and steady as the mountain
range
filled with majesty
unsoiled by personal experience
at rest eternally
thou is within all
now

Shiva the blessed light
untouched by birth and death
distinctly different in nature
than mind
not taking or giving
not adding or subtracting
not following
or staying behind
only here always
within stillness
and light
thou is within all
now

Shiva the blessed light
equal in heart and grace
unto all
true to all
here as pure presence
for all to come into
and be set free
never to sorrow again
or be reborn as shadow
thou is within all
now
