777. Snake And Ladder

Rating: 5.0


It took many life times to make out that
Freedom is inside and I am outside shut!
Being a medley of thoughts, aside I sit
And search a way to reach within, but…

My own senses hinder the way
My own mind does not obey
Could not withstand their play
I search someone to stand by!

Omnipresent or Master a disguised form of God
May help my soul shoot from mind-pod
But unwavering faith is what they demand
From a true heart which I am deprived!

Through body with five senses and mind
Must I realize that they are themselves void!
Being caught in the beautiful universe
Must I transcend all dimensions diverse!

As a butcher feeds a goat just for his meat
World feeds me just for life-cycle feast!
Will I too die like a pathetic worm
Without realizing what is my true form?

In this snake-ladder game of karmas
If I ascend a few steps there comes
A downfall right to the beginning step!
Could I ever reach goal at the top? 010609
