MY ETERNAL FRIEND
Deluded as ever, I seek the one inevitable primordial sleep
but in ignorance of Self, 'mind's eye' can look only so deep
There the dark is darker than darkness, there is no beacon
Deep in centre I feel a thud, though there is no new reason.
My 'Eternal Friend', though about your ways I often wonder
Yet you are the only "Real", I know it in complete surrender
In times of need, you know my need, now you are my need
Tired of fleeting pleasures, with folded hands to you I plead.
There is this mind trapped within, and a mind there beyond
Lips have spoken all they can, and eyes seen all they want
Make this vision pure with effulgence and glimpse of Thee
Release me now of this bondage and let this prana be free.
An internal chatter, external noise, my mind needs a balance
Affairs of this world now enchant me not, it is time for silence
Unspoken sound of Oum heralds this silence I have no doubt
Beckons the 'eternity' within to merge into the eternity without.
In That silence, rests the speech there is beyond the speech
sound beyond sound, and light beyond any brightest of light
Merge my being in this soundless, part-less supreme Reality
My Eternal Friend, grant me this, I shall ask no more of Thee.

Respected Vindu ji:
// My 'Eternal Friend', though about your ways I often wonder...voice of my heart also //
It is heartening to hear you resonate with my sentiments in the poem. Yes, after all the name and fame and accolades, the real peace is only in the inner silence that merges in HIM, like a natural passion, without trying.
Thank you for your appreciation.
Regards.
Vijay
