consciousness
If we wouldn’t kibitz
with consciousness
I would have liked to be
reborn as a human being
religion, science, culture,
business, education are
whizzing at the entire race
with divisions, decay, and
off-colour differences
people fighting in families,
communities, and countries
I’m not as lucky as those
bards who’d sing of praise
with words of accolades
no, I wouldn’t like to be
reborn with the weight
of depraved awareness

(@stormwolf)Hello Supratik, I think you are incredibly hard on yourself. I know how difficult it is to see humanity as a seething mass of the un-awakened putting their energies into fruitless pursuits and being led like dumb animals to the slaughter. People are often saying to me “what an incredible time to be alive!” I cannot see it and hope this is my last visit here, there again, my world view is that I chose to come here, now, so just have to grin and bear it. There is such division everywhere (by design) and so I now tend to… Read more »
(@supratik)Hello Alison, Thank you for stopping by. I do think you and I were destined to be linked. What you are construing as being hard is atonement, a deep realization, and then an acknowledgment from the heart that I have wronged. By ‘I’ I do mean the entire human race. I think it is still possible to see the light of infinite happiness and abundance if we bend down on our knees and seek forgiveness. Your stance is but natural it is bound to be that way. I have faith in the power of sincere thought, so my words try… Read more »
