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.
