Lose all sense of self

When you lose

all sense of self,

the bonds of

a thousand chains

will vanish.

  1. Dear Rekha,
    I made a difference between myself and my Self and expressed this in my poem below. Myself is ego and is outside oriented while Self is inside oriented and is united with all, like the drop of the Ocean. Myself separates as Ego, is duality, but my Self is my higher Self in me…
    Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts and words, dear friend.
    All the best
    From heart to heart
    Didi
    Believing in your Self, in my Self
    I don’t believe in myself
    But I believe in my Self
    Between myself and yourself
    Mine and thine
    There is a vortex
    A hidden shrine
    Lost and burried
    Sand of mind
    Noone seemed be worried
    Eyes so blind
    Possessive hands
    Feed the ego
    Separating ourselves
    From our Selves
    You are me
    And I am you
    So I don’t believe in myself
    As I am your Self
    So you don’t believe in yourself
    As you are my Self…

      1. Welcome, my dear Rekha 🙂
        That is the merging into Oneness. So Christ that also: “I and my Father are one”, Paulus said so too and many competent Gurus as well. It is also said: As we think so we become and when one thinks the day whole of the Beloved One – he adopts His colour and is getting One with Him. Dr. Harbhajan Singh, Gurmukh of Sant Kirpal Singh also wrote a book: “Forever one”

        From heart to heart
        Didi
