Value of Introspection - Vethathiri Maharishi

The state of Awareness
is the light of lights with which
you should rescue and steady
your untrained mind
that's now being tossed about
in a whirlpool as it were
of likes and dislikes.

Introspection intense
would charge your life with love
and Consciousness would develop
to trace its orgin.
Truth would shine forth
in pristine effulgence
and misery would abate
in the onset of peacefulness.

-- Yogiraj Vethathiri Maharishi
