Who is there without trying to escape from his own self?

Who is there without trying

To escape from his own self?

Only the courageous one,

Who is in harmony with himself,

And so with the totality and almighty,

Can sit face to face with his own self

Needing no further veils of engagements

For covering, escaping and forgetting the self.

***************

With the bullets and bombs

One can face and defeat

The external enemies hiding in others.

*************

Except with enlightenment

That will harmonize one

With himself and with the whole,

One can’t face and defeat

One’s own self

With any of the talks or walks

Or with any of the bullets or bombs.

*************

For one to pass time

With no job and engagement

Is equal to cease to exist

For any meaning,

Hence get bored

Or get afraid.

Time is something to be passed and wasted

Through any kind of acts and engagements

Even if such acts engagements are against

The interests of their innate nature.
