He can empty his mind of thoughts
And let his heart be at peaceAnd smiles mysteriously with ease.
He is aware of the common entity
From where each being comes and goes
Returning to the source is serenity
With divine light his head glows.
He realizes from where he came from
That’s why he is naturally tolerant
Undeterred he sits braving the storm
Like a grand mother he is benevolent.
Immersed in the wonder of God
He deals with whatever life brings
He holds the almighty shaft and the rod
When death comes he joyfully sings. - Vasant Khisty
This poem is inspired by a thought by Lao Tzu a Chinese philosopher. He defines a person to be a master who knows the source from where he came from and where we all will go. He is humble, kind, benevolent and brave and in every situation he is smiling and witnessing the cosmic game unfold. The world has given us masters like Jesus, Buddha, Mahaveera, Sai Baba, Guru Nanak and many more unknown souls. We can hold and follow whoever we feel comfortable and walk in the direction they have shown us they will all lead to the source.
