Walk of life

Walk of life                                                                                                  

Do we not all go by God’s grace
whatever walk of life we tread?

Grace to counter the dominance of Mind,
Maya’s deception, the dishonesty

of an ego without compunction. 
These malefic three creating the illusion

within each ordinary human being
of superiority, distinction, enislement

and the resulting blame and disavowal of others.
Jesus, Baba, Saint Francis each embraced lepers

in our shared humanity but also as a symbol
of the disfigurement and adulteration

each of us suffer, must uncover
and accept in ourselves and others.

We’ve been tricked out of our humility
and prohibited from our righteous service

as the slaves of God we could be, the slaves
to Mercy and Grace and eternal Oneness.

O child of God, the difficult-to-grasp truth is
that we all receive the same beneficent grace of God.
