Look Inwards

Look inwards - - - - - - - - - Turned upside down No stone unturned left And have swept the heaven But nowhere found All through life What he wished and longed for This is not a thing material That is visible And can be found everywhere At the cost you wish to pay for In philosophies abstract And in truths abstruse Interested are a very few When you say Be still and know the peace within Instead of looking outside for happiness Look for consciousness Behind the consciousness And experience infinite bliss within Like a Himalayan musk deer You are running hither and thither Worn out and dying Searching for the source Of the musk fragrance Scarcely realizing that The musk smell Originating from within Still hoping against hope I see a slender ray of light Creeping from your solemn heart That betokens an ampler dawn Suffusing you with infinite light
