feet of the masters

put your life into the search
press your head against the
feet of the masters
as the sannyasi that has cast
his burden off
to be like the foreigner
which means he is no longer
connected to his homeland
he is single in his search
as a sun that shines in the
cloudless sky
alone and in full light

measure your days by
what you let go of
and not by what you
gain
then you will be content
with very little
and not seeking more of
this or that
as a man does not come into
life with things
he does not know about
objects
but only feels love and goodness
that warms him
and pleases him well
and where does this goodness
come?
from God alone
and nowhere else
see, this is the most important
to be of goodwill and service
to God
and then forget all about
everything but his perfection
in which the heart opens
into and fills up with
yeah friend,
put your life into the search
and forget your little self
be still

  1. Namaste, thank you. Be still, let the world disappear. Measure your days by what you let go of and not by what you gained. This resonates here. Very appreciated. OM Shanti
