little-self

Some seek riches, power; control over three worlds!
Others seek wisdom, salvation; liberation from death!
What this little self seeks, he knows not
“I”-consciousness adds burden, shedding it he craves
What is sought, is an enigma
What is taught, is the dilemma
Lessons taught by others, liberate not
Wisdom attained by others, enlightens not
Self teaching is illusory, creates more delusion
Bookish knowledge is data, not creative den
Science, spirituality have divided in halves
Each has evolved around it, demarcated halos
Science intruded in Nature, (after) separating from spirit
Later is chained in box, oracles as religion
Domicile of each is in doubt, each is a cluster of ideas
Truth of their existence in veiled in divinity, Nature’s roots lost
- In science
Real (ty) lost in fables, ignorance breeds new parables;
End of search is you: know thy-Self.
