Jinendra Swami - Truth



Truth is a pathless Oasis
Who can show you the path?
Have faith in yourself alone
And begin the inner walk

To experience Truth
Put all aside
All that you have heard
All that you have ever read
All knowledge of scriptures
  and the philosophical tenets
Put them all aside

Just be Aware of the Reality
Of this moment within you
Truth with a big T means
      -- "the truth about you"

Your own Awareness reveals
Truth about your self
...   ... though not the Ultimate Truth
Next moment is your Next Reality
And so on and on and on you walk
From Each moment to next moment
Just be simply Aware
Of the Reality that is within you  
Remain Equanimous
Each moment...    ...
...   ...   ...   as it arrives
Observe Through your Inner Eyes
The inner play, of your Body and Mind

As the inner walk progresses
Awareness of space
  and time ceases
Now ... a miracle is happening
Each moment of your daily life

Always remaining Equanimous
Alone you walk  ...   ...  
   and walk  ...  and   ...   walk
To the deeeeeeepest depth
Of your mind and heart
To arrive at the Whole Truth

To live truthfully
Let each moment of Truth
Bring you
To next moment of Truth

So, from this moments Truth
   to the next moments Truth
From Truth to  Truth  ...  to Truth
On this pathless path you move
Until you finally arrive
In this pathless journey
To the Oasis of Truth

Truth is so simple
   when revealed to you  
You will have the answer
   of Why and How to live

As you continue your 'inner walk'
The observer merges with the observed
In a flash is revealed the Unknowable
The Truth -- the Self is now Known
Beyond all doubts

Are you eligible to experience Truth?

First understand the difference between
   a 'Grahastha' and a 'Sadhaka'
A 'Grahastha' is always a 'smart-person'
A 'Sadhaka' may be 'smart' but is also a 'good-person'

Do you know?
A 'smart-person'  lives and acts for 'self-gain'
A 'good-person'  lives and acts for 'gain-of-Self '

To experience Truth
Be a  'good person'
Simply live and act for 'gain-of-Self '

Now don't hold on
  to your pre-conceived ideas and beliefs
Let go of all your old conceptions
Of  'good-person, smart-person,
    grahastha or Sadhaka '

In search of Truth
Be a 'Sadhaka'
Then you'll understand and see
   the meaning that hide behind these words  

The Laws of Life are so very simple
If you know the Truth
This Truth brings total synthesis
Between the 'Environment' and  'You'
Inward -Outward you now exist
In total peace and harmony

Be aware and perceive rightly
Then the words come alive and become meaningful
If not, they are like writings on water
Soon to disappear into meaninglessness!!
