Why was I born

Why was I born

1 min

Why was I born, I don't know.

What's the purpose of my life, I don't know. 

Any purpose my existence pre-supposed, I don't know. 


What all I know, is to be good and do good, 

That's what my scriptures taught. 

I live to my heart's content and I have no discontent.


A wanting person will always remain a wanting person,

That's what my Guru taught, 

I have no need unwanted to fulfil.


 Bereft of wants to fulfil 

 I am a full, complete person,

I am complete is my true nature.


I discovered at last 

and blissful becomes the life I live.
