What are we rushing for?
Blind wealth?
Arrogant fame?
Superficial love?
We have been taught
to reach the goals very fast
to be always the Number 1
in the rat race
Even relationships need to be
planned, systematic, down to Earth
In pursuit of this illusory mundane,
We often become
stressed, depressed,
antipathic , egoistic,
inhumane, vain
O Human Race!
O Friends!
What are we rushing for?
It is shallow
nothingness,
nullity,
dullness,
It is a living death
Let’s take a deep breath,
Learn to let everything go,
No bonds, no pain, no regrets ,
Let’s connect to
the Divine
the soul within us
Over there we always find
Peace,
Liberation,
Bliss
O Human Race!
O Friends!
The essence of human life is
to discover the true self
to know the real God
Life often calls for a halt
in sublime silence,
perfect peace ,
It wishes our minds, bodies and souls
be merged in the wise poise
So Human Race,
My dear friends,
What are we rushing for ?
