Death of Ego, birth of Wisdom

in #poetry8 years ago

Although you seem to be our best friend and seem to work for us, you are our deadliest enemy, ego.

You pretend to be really existent and in harmony with reality but you are not, ego. You are an assumption and lacking a solid basis.

You, ego, seem reliable and reasonable but you are not what you appear to be. You are the great deceiver.

You seem to be permanent, ego, but in reality you can die.

Following you, ego, drags us down into suffering. You pretend there is no alternative to you but there is.

Your death, ego, is waking up from a nightmare and the beginning of a new life. It is the opening of the gates of wisdom.

You, wisdom, are not found in the sphere of ego but you show your face in non-duality.

Although paths and vehicles exist that bring us closer to you, wisdom, you are beyond all bias. You don't belong to any group, philosophy or religion.

To you, wisdom, my true nature, my true guide free of limitations, I pay homage!
