7The Abstract Core

Why can’t Each one of us Realize

Liberation, Enlightenment or God

If it is a state

of our own — Consciousness?

All Rituals and Traditions

are not completely useless

Some have hidden precious truths

but, truth mixed with lots of Errors

and also lots of Untruth

How can that Tradition be good

If, Instead of gaining Wisdom

you end up following Untruth?

Most Rituals

and most Traditions are Infections

Passed on by previous generation

to us, and then from us to next

Don’t let Rituals and Traditions

Occupy the place

Of Wisdom that’s in you

Keep away from this folly

Or you may become a lost Man too

When we observe the history and life

The Abstract Core7

The Abstract Core

of all the Great Masters and Teachers

We find

Rebel and Iconoclast were all of them

Each one of them broke away

from the myth and belief

That Truth can be had

from Someone-else

All dependence on another

is an obstacle and hindrance

This dependence cannot lead you

to the experience of the Independence

‘This’ Non-Reliance

‘This’ Non-Obedience

Brings Inner Freedom

And Reveals to you the Fact

The Fact that can neither

be received nor learnt

‘The Words’ that got transmitted

From disciple to disciple

May be Absolutely True to the ‘Letter’

But how could they transmit

‘the Reality’ behind ‘The Words’?

Why can’t Each one of us Realize

Liberation, Enlightenment or God

If it is a state

of our own — Consciousness?

All Rituals and Traditions

are not completely useless

Some have hidden precious truths

but, truth mixed with lots of Errors

and also lots of Untruth

How can that Tradition be good

If, Instead of gaining Wisdom

you end up following Untruth?

Most Rituals

and most Traditions are Infections

Passed on by previous generation

to us, and then from us to next

Don’t let Rituals and Traditions

Occupy the place

Of Wisdom that’s in you

Keep away from this folly

Or you may become a lost Man too
