Analysis of The End of Time or a Beginning?
Why seek contentment in the body,
why look for what cannot be found,
is that which perishes substantial,
is matter mightier than Mind?
Did the Creator make a flower
to bloom today, tomorrow die,
did He not breathe eternal power
into the beauty seen with inner eyes?
Did not creation come to be
as witness to the Spirit good and free?
Then, not the end but a beginning, new day
dawns in awareness, to unfold, to stay.
