Tripping Over Joy
What is the difference
Between your experience of Existence
And that of a saint?
The saint knows
That the spiritual path
Is a sublime chess game with God
And that the Beloved
Has just made such a Fantastic Move
That the saint is now continually
Tripping over Joy
And bursting out in Laughter
And saying, “I Surrender!”
Whereas, my dear,
I am afraid you still think
You have a thousand serious moves.

cosmic hug to you, o wayfarer.
Hi,
Nice poem. I saw your Google profile. Do all students at Maharishi University practice TM? I have a webpage about meditation on my website. Here is my Google profile: http://www.google.com/profiles/ginkgo07
