Like this a petite body, inside the body a mind
The mind contains a heart.
Body of the mind and mind of the body
Is there a link between the two?
Though identical, they roam the worlds unalike
Though together, they remain far apart
Is body a maaya or maaya the mind
maaya is illusion - the fading heart!
Maaya has a body, maaya has a mind
This is the maaya heart…
Mind's body has wings and an expanse of sky to fly!
Body's mind though melts, to flow it simply shies?
Detached from bodies, detached from minds,
Lingers in memory, rhymes in breathing, as darkness in day light
Perishes, persists, transcends to elsewhere…
This stagnant body, silent mind, and steadily beating heart.
