Shivoham
I
am Shiva! I am the eternally Blessed One!
There is none else, no
force, no thought, no action beyond Me!
Strive to attain Me! All
I want is for you to be like Me!
What is this limited set of
knowledge you call “world” and “self”?
Bundle these two
together like a pile of sticks and burn them in Me!
I am
the Essence of your devotion,
The splendor of your silent
awe,
The fountain of grace bubbling within you,
Seek with
the cup of your mind a drop of My bliss,
And I will fill you
with My ocean of unending delight!
I am the eternally
Restful One,
The sky of awareness that knows no clouds,
The
river of peace that cools your nerves,
Let your mind dwell on
the lotus of your heart,
And discover My kingdom of boundless
silence.
I am the epitome of all Wonder and Bliss,
The
elixir of immortality that quenches every desire,
The sweet
nectar of heaven hidden within you,
Plunge yourself through the
eye of your spine,
And awaken to My festival of divine
ecstasy!
I am the Unimpeded One,
Reaching out to
every atom of time and space,
The supremely independent
Actor,
Who plays on the stage of your soul,
Realize this
within and master My divine play.
I am the Pulsating Throb
of existence,
The surge of creation made from twinkling energy
dust,
The Composer of your incessantly changing form,
Observe
with awareness the radiance of each breath,
And create worlds
within worlds.
I am the Lord of Destruction,
The
black hole that holds the universe in balance,
The divine secret
of rejuvenation is My very grace,
Fearlessly let your inner eye
gaze intently on My form,
And behold the dissolution of the
limited mind.
I
am the Absolute Knowing by which all is known,
The pure
knowingness that saturates every object,
The unseen witness of
your effervescent thoughts,
With profound nearness ask yourself
“who am I?”
Until the I’ness of I vanquishes the thought
“I am”
