Stay Home

STAY HOME

Nothing exists but the Self
All things arise and dissolve within the Self
Find the Self which was never lost
And Be


Lay down your burdens
They were never yours to carry
Stay and rest
Where you have always dwelt
Give up your fake job
In the “make me happy squad”
Board the train
Of divine unemployment
Where you can relax
Until the next station appears

Stay home today
No need to scurry here and there
Searching for your Self
You are here, now, always
Stay home
And watch the comings and goings
From the unmoving
Unmoveable Love that you are
