CROW  SHOWS  THE  WAY …

 

 

          O ye humans,

                      have you not observed

          the crow calling out

                      to birds of its clan

          so as to share and partake of

                      the food-material

it has spotted

                      on its own?

 

                                              Likewise have I known

                                                          the Bliss that is the flood

                                                                    of experience of the Absolute

                                                                                which bubbles and brims over

                                              in a surge of Perfection –

                                                          one vast expanse it is,

                                                                    stretched out before me!

                               

                                O, do come over

                                            in your multitude

                                to lap It up in glee,

                                            ere your physical frame

which you were born with

                                            falls as it needs must

                                when your life-span runs out…
