Pave your own path and start walking,

Even when you are the subject of mocking,

Leave your footprints in the sands of time,

Bask forever in the sunlight of prime.

 

Have the courage to follow your soul’s reason,

Focus on soul guided actions with firm resolution,

Feel the harmony that emerges from your inner being,

Raise above the mind induced feelings.

 

Let your river of unbiased knowledge surge ahead,

Dissolving the impurity of ego on its stead,

To meet the vast ocean of universal consciousness,

Enlightened soul emerges in all prominence.

 

The inner light of soul radiates from the peaceful ocean,

That blinds are crazy emotions and whimsical notions,

There you meet your inner self and merge,

This is the moment when enlightenment surges.

 

When conflict does not form basis for biased thought,

In the cobwebs of prejudices when you are not caught,

When we live in the light of the soul,

We are enlightened beings in whole.
