-Paramahansa Yogananda
by Angelis
Age Group: Adult
Vanished the veils of light and shade,
Lifted every vapour of sorrow
Sailed away all dawns of fleeting joy,
Gone the dim, sensory mirage.
Love, hate, health, disease, life, death.
Perished these false shadows, on the screen of duality.
The storm of Maya stilled
By magic wand of intuition deep.
Present, past, future, no more for me,
But ever-present, all-flowing I, I, everywhere.
Planets, stars, stardust, earth,
Volcanic bursts of doomsday cataclysms’
Creations moulding furnace,
Glaciers of silent x-rays, burning electron floods,
Thoughts of all men, past, present, to come
Every blade of grass, myself, mankind,
Each particle of universal dust
Anger, greed, good, bad salvation, lust,
I swallowed, transmuted all
Into a vast ocean of blood of my own one Being.
Smouldering joy, oft-puffed meditation
Blinding my tearful eyes,
Burst into immortal flames of bliss,
Consumed my tears, my frame, my all
Thou art I, I am Thou.
Knowing, knower, known as One!
Tran quilled, unbroken thrill, eternity, living, ever-new peace.
Enjoyable beyond imagination of expectancy, SAMADHI BLISS!!!
Not an unconscious state
Or mental chloroform without wilful return,
Samadhi but extends my conscious realm
Beyond limits of mortal frame
To the farthest boundary of eternity
Where I, the cosmic sea
Watch the little ego floating in me
Mobile murmurs of atoms are heard,
The dark earth, mountains, vales, lo! Molten liquid!
Flowing seas changes into vapours of nebulae!
Aum blows upon vapours, opening wonderously their veils,
Oceans stand revealed, shining electrons,
Till, at the last sound of cosmic drum,
Vanish the grosser lights into eternal rays,
Of all- pervading bliss.
From joy I came, for joy I live, in sacred joy I melt.
Ocean of mind, I drink all creations waves.
Four veils of solid, liquid, vapour, light
Lift aright.
I, in everything, enter the Great Myself.
Gone forever: fitful, flickering shadows of mortal memory,
Spotless is my mental sky – below, ahead, and high above,
Eternity and I, one united ray,
A tiny bubble of laughter, I
Am become the Sea of Mirth itself
