KNOW THE SELF - KNOW THE GOD

 

KNOW THE SELF 

                   - KNOW THE GOD

God has given each its  nature

Each is free to act  in its God-given nature

God watches, not interferes

Water flows down into sea,

Goes up into clouds

And comes back  to earth

It’s a full circle

Air flows all over

Goes into humans as oxygen

Goes out of them as CO2

Goes then  to the trees and

Comes back to humans as oxygen

It’s a full circle

God has created full circles

Everywhere, for everything

For humans too, it’s a full circle

Death to birth to death,

It goes on and on,  all the time

Everything goes on in full circles

The earth, the solar system, the galaxy

The insect, the bird, the animal and the man

All move in circles

In their own god-given nature

Our humane nature however,

has the potential

To break the full circle

And free our self by our self

first, and foremost,  

we must know the self, our own self

This Is the path and the goal

We can’t know an atom fully

Before we know our self

Who knows god

Among those who pray him?

He who knows the self

Is the  one ; the only one

who knows Him

He unshackles the circles

Breaks free from god-given nature

And becomes closest to God

Knowing the self

Is knowing the god within

Knowing the self

Is knowing the bliss within

Knowing the self

Is knowing the all-knowing within

Knowing the self

Is knowing the never-changing truth within

Knowing the self

Is all that there is

For you and me to know
