Master



Questions in the head
Mind giving answers
Just a balance in progress
Each his  own witness

Takes time to realize
Minds echo doesn't materialize
Thinking not minimized
Brain trained
Answers customized

Guilty about quest
If it's for material progress
Spiritual progress
Guiltless process

Time warp on thoughts
Endless ocean of questions
Dead end for Solutions
Whole shebang no conclusion

Times of grief
God the chief
A daily brief
A cure called relief
Hinges on the word belief

Web of unreality
Dual role playing
certainty and uncertainty
Slowly turns to Spirituality

Mind to clear
Questions so dear
Answers far yet  so near
A compulsory factor
Is the  need for a Master

Quest for self knowledge
Mind wandering outside
All answers inside
Determined for an Answer
Follow the Master

Journey Prepaid
No rent paid
Time on earth
Status quo
Till death beckons

Self finds self
Like a maglite
In a movie hall
Our Master
Throws light

Without  the teacher
There is no driver
Reason for your birth
No more plans to
Visit mother earth
Answers to all
Provided by one

A Spiritual Master
Money not his aim
Spreading the knowledge
Where he leads his carriage

Get in the last one
Before he picks another one
Ride the carriage
Full of knowledge
