Ihdamas Interlude B
[Omni Auspice]
Vanished the veils of light and shade
Lifted every vapor of sorrow
Sailed away all dawns of fleeting joy
Gone the dim sensory mirage
Love, hate, health, disease, life, death:
Perished these false shadows on the screen of duality
The storm of maya stilled
By magic wand of intuition deep
But ever-present, all-flowing I, I, everywhere
Planets, stars, stardust, earth
Volcanic bursts of doomsday cataclysms
Creation’s molding furnace
Glaciers of silent X-rays, burning electron floods
Thoughts of all men, past, present, to come
Every blade of grass, myself, mankind
Each particle of universal dust
Anger, greed, good, bad, salvation, lust
I swallowed, transmuted all
Into a vast ocean of blood of my own one Being
Smoldering joy, oft-puffed by meditation
Blinding my tearful eyes
Burst into immortal flames of bliss
Consumed my tears, my frame, my all
Thou art I, I am Thou
Knowing, Knower, Known, as One!
Tranquilled, unbroken thrill, eternally living, ever-new peace
Enjoyable beyond imagination of expectancy, samadhi bliss!
