My mind is contaminated with material lust,
I am struggling with myself to do what I must,
I read all the books written through the ages,
I searched for the wisdom known to sages,
Nothing ever helped me conquer my mind,
The hardest I struggled, was harder to find,
But, one day morning laying in bed,
Found the answer to the search I made,
Change the vision to change the mind,
This is the key you were looking to find,
External knowledge enlarges the brain,
You may forget it, alas you may refrain,
I tried to listen to that inner sound,
Heard something and yet was found,
Change the vision, the eye of the mind,
Things will appear so different in kind,
See not the body, but what drives it so,
That changes the vision from days ago,
The woman you see who seems so lusty,
Is merely a soul and that is less costly,
The tree that grows up towards the sun,
Is just a soul bound to roots deep down,
The change should occur in just the vision,
This was the gospel of those with mission,
Change the vision to change the mind, the inner sound hange the vision, the eye of the mind, soul bound to the roots, , very fube expressions dear poet. liked it very much. tony
