Selfishness And The Malady Of Our Nature. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

Selfishness And The Malady Of Our Nature.

Rating: 5.0


All the disorder and corruption
and malady of our nature
lies in a certain fixedness
of our own will, imagination,
and desire, wherein we live to ourselves.

We are our own center and circumference.
The Self has to learn to cease
to be its 'own center and circumference',
to make that final surrender
which is the price of final peace.

We are our own center and circumference. The self has power to cease negative traits. Self control is based on self wisdom that we inherit from God. We need to surrender before him and we can realize self and power. An amazing brilliant poem is well penned...10
