Poems

From darkness to light
To make our Life bright
We must go from Gu to Ru
And for this we need a Guru
We must find an Enlightened Master

Vivekananda had Ramakrishna
Chinmayananda had Sivananda
Meerabai had Ravidas
Shivaji's Guru was Ramdas
Do you have an Enlightened Master?

I, too, was chasing pleasure
I never found the true treasure
Till my Guru sent me on a Quest
I overcame ignorance and won the test
This happens with an Enlightened Master

Who is a true Guru?
Who can overcome our darkness, Gu
Who can show us the light, Ru
We are Awakened by a Guru
We need an Enlightened Master

The Guru is our Mentor and Guide
In our Guru, we can confide
The Guru will create that Illumination
From this, we will get Realization
Liberation happens with an Enlightened Master

The Guru is the GPS that shows the way
He gives us direction, every day
He activates our intellect to choose what's right
We overcome ignorance and with the myth we fight
If we can find an Enlightened Master

Is the Guru easy to find?
You can't, if you are a slave of your Mind
The Guru comes to us with God's grace
Not if we are running in the world's race
Have you met your Enlightened Master?

There are many Gurus, who is the right one?
With the right Guru, Life's battle is won
For it is the Guru who will unlock the door
With him, there is Peace, Love, Bliss and more
We must find an Enlightened Master

The Guru begins our Initiation
He cleanses us with Purification
He has an answer to every question
He teaches us the right lesson
We are Awakened by an Enlightened Master

The disciple must be a sincere seeker
With obedience, we will arrive quicker
The better Guru is one who is stricter
He is sincere, not a trickster
We must get to an Enlightened Master

To succeed, we must obey
We must trust and not disobey
We must take all doubts away
The Guru, we must not betray
Then we'll reach our goal, with an Enlightened Master

Life is nothing but a circus
It is the Guru that gives us Purpose
We overcome all anxiety and stress
We discover Eternal Happpiness
These are the rewards of having an Enlightened Master

If we are in search of God
If we want to attain the Lord
The Guru leads us to Self-Realization
And then, takes us to God-Realization
We must hold the hand of our Enlightened Master

What would I be without my Guru?
There would be no Ru, I would suffer in Gu
In Gu, darkness would be my life
Without Ru, light, there would be strife
I am grateful that I found my Enlightened Master

If you want to be free from suffering on earth
If you want to be free from Rebirth
If you want a meaningful Life
If you want Happpiness and don't want strife
It's time to find an Enlightened Master!
We all have an Ego, it is there in our head
It will go along with us till we are dead
It is the one that, 'I', 'me' and 'mine', has always said

It is the Ego that causes anger, the Ego that causes hate
It brings in agony, pushes peace out of the gate
Alas! We suffer through life with it and it’s too late!

The Ego has a best friend, It is our rascal Mind
The Mind fools us to believe that the Ego is 'I', we find
Together the Mind and Ego become ME, in which we grind

As long as the Ego is ignorant, we will live as 'I'
We will not go on a quest, we will just cry and die!
It's time to ask the valid question, 'Who am I?'


Am I this Body? No, I am not! One day, it will go
I came 9 months before, after that the Body did grow
As long as I don't Realize this, I'll suffer through the show

We all suffer the triple suffering after we come to earth
It is the Ego and the Mind that makes us take this birth
If we Realize we are the Soul, then there is no rebirth

How can the Ego be Enlightened? We must Realize the Truth
We're not the Body or the Mind, get to the bottom of the root
We'll Realize we are the Soul, that will be our fruit

The Ego can't be annihilated, it can't be killed!
But it can be Enlightened, if the mind is stilled
This will never happen, if with ignorance, we are filled

It's the Ego that is responsible for revenge and greed
It makes us proud and selfish, this happens indeed!
But when the Ego is Enlightened, we can pull out the ****

'Who am I?' we ask, when we go on a quest
'I am not 'I',' is the rest of the test
Then, I will never die, this becomes our crest

When from man, you remove the Ego, you will Realize God
As, when to God, you add Ego, you get man and lose the Lord
We can be Enlightened with this equation, which we forgot!


The truth is that we are not the different Bodies, we seem to wear
We are in fact, the Divine Soul, the Supreme we all share
But to realize this Truth is truly very rare!

When the Ego is Enlightened, we Realize, we are all Divine
Manifestations of the Supreme, we are all that Sunshine
But we are lost in ignorance, in pleasure and in wine

When the Ego is Enlightened, there is Bliss, Love and Peace
When we let go of the Ego, agony and anguish will cease
Little do we Realize, the Ego's big disease!

'Not this, Not this,' The truth is, 'We are that'
Not the Body or Mind, we are the Soul, in fact!
The Enlightened Ego is the one who bells the cat!

The Ego that is not Enlightened, believes, 'I am 'I' '
It lives and it suffers and it cries till we die
But the Enlightened Ego is blissful, Realizing, 'I am not 'I''

The Enlightened Ego saves us from all misery on earth
When we Realize the Truth, then there is no rebirth
So, Enlighten the Ego, priceless is its worth!
