Within the Veil

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Most people think happiness is accumulation of things or possessions. However, real happiness is found within us.

We are like a spark of light whose nature is bliss and joy. Unfortunately, this joy is covered by our defiled mind that is filled with greed, lust, anger, hatred, false beliefs, delusions, confusions, etc. Covered by all these, we cannot see our true nature of light and love. We cannot access our happiness. Only by removing all these defilements can we begin to see and feel the love and light within us.

Within the Veil

Beneath the chase of fleeting things,
A spark of light forever sings.
Its melody, a joy divine,
A love eternal, wholly thine.

Yet shadows fall, a mind unkind,
Greed and anger twist and bind.
Hatred blooms, delusion sows,
The spark within obscured in throes.

We wander, lost, with heavy chains,
Clutching dreams that yield but pain.
Blind to truth, our essence hides,
Buried deep where stillness abides.

But peel the layers, dark and dense,
Untangle webs of false pretense.
Each burden dropped, each lie unlearned,
Reveals the light for which we yearned.

A bliss untouched, forever pure,
Awaits the soul steadfast, secure.
For joy is not in what we hold,
But in the love our hearts enfold.

The veil will lift, the spark will glow,
When streams of truth within us flow.
Happiness, our native air,
Awaits the soul that learns to care.
