It’s selfish to
desire liberation (however phrased):
union, bliss, realization;
to be free from affliction
when it means
abandoning in our attainment
our loved ones
(as well as the whole of humanity).
Yet, how might an
imperfect, 
in-the-flesh
sufferer offer any assistance 
toward liberating
others while hopelessly 
entangled in the
same snare?
The object of
liberation is not our human selves,
but the Godly
Self within each of us –
the cleaving of
the bonds, the clearing of the veils 
that bind the
true Self to Illusion;
that prevent
Truth from knowing Itself as True.
Surely if we are
One, with every individual liberation 
there is a
bodhisattva effect of some sort 
beyond the
incarnated self, a universal 
further shifting
of the tides, one day to sweep 
every entrapped
soul out to sea; to dissolve 
(for however long
forever is) 
the illusory
separation of God from God.
O child of God,
use imagination and rationalization 
to keep you
focused on the eventual Reunion.
