The Teacher And The Taught

As the Teacher took His place,

Under the Peepal tree,

Eager faces did he see,

To know,

To Learn,

To go within,

To that infinite space 

To know how to Be! 

As his soft voice,

Floated words of wisdom,

Of the knowledge

That was handed down,

To Him,

He shows us 

A way to connect to the teacher inside us

To ignite the fires of learning,

To open up to the Bliss 

That lies dormant,

Within.

Seek it not in the mountains 

And rivers,

He says,

Seek it not in plains

And seas,

Seek it not in places and people outside of you,

Seek it in the depth of your soul,

In the silence within.

Tuning into His frequency,

Practicing his teachings,

Diligently,

The Ultimate Reality,

Fills the void,

Becoming 

The all-pervading Bliss,

And then there's nothing more,

Or less!
