Time-bound Self and Timeless Self

Blessed are those whosavour the Beautyand Majesty ofthe AlmightyEver grateful for beingloved

Blessed are those whowent throughhardship upon hardshipStrengthening internalresolve withexperiences andwisdom To face the vitriolictides of time

So heed the call fromthe intellect of yoursubtle heart As you venture andrediscover theglimmering imagesOf eternal knowledgebeyond your wildestimaginings Cajoling you, to thinkout of the box andseek the elusiveparadigm shiftsEnnobling spiritualisedminds

Yet humans choose toignore their souls’moral compassEntrapped within thecultural decay ofmaterial addictionsand infantileposturingsA solemn reminder ofprimordialdialecticalrelationships Balancing attributesthat contradict yet complement each other

So, we revitalise thepower of truth,justice andcompassion Urging our boundlessand borderlessintellect To break away from anoppressive cultureThat isolates, zombifiesand freezes positivemindsets

Such valiant effortsoffer a glimpse ofthe moving imagesof eternityIn your reflectingmirror Harmonising yourtime-bound self withyour timeless selfSo let every day beyour birthdayAnd heed the call ofthe Universe tocome homeAnd embrace the rootof all Existence
