Progress and Comparison

Progress comes when progress stops,
Like the stopping of a ticking clock,
Like time becoming a timeless lot,
Like life becomes what is and is not.

Comparison, a useless activity,
Uniqueness, the only reality,
Stop comparing against another,
Eliminate the duality altogether.

Success, a self-created ideology,
Its just a simple psychology,
No one is a prodigy,
Everyone is just biology.

Performance, just an idea,
Just another comparison,
Creating an inner fear,
Of not making it, my dear.

Steer towards nothing,
To have access to everything,
Taking no stance,
Makes the Universe sing.

Bring yourself to zero,
You are nothing, nothing,
Then you will be a hero,
You'll be something, something.

One thing is very clear,
Peer into oneself,
Find a silent place,
To clear the piling shelf.

Never will life be the same,
Life loses its apparent game,
To all the Gods, a shame,
Nobody left to blame.

Fame and forture is yours,
Universe works it all out,
Transcend self-created laws,
Accepting all the flaws.

Perfection is possible,
But not the perfection you know,
Perfection is not trying,
Perfection is the inner glow.

Show your true light,
Share your inner wisdom,
Challenge your apparent sight,
Don't flight and don't fight.

Height of life is humility,
Might of life is tranquility,
Key of life is nothingness,
Face of life is oneness.

Vaheguru. Vaheguru.
Vaheguru. Vaheguru.
Vaheguru. Vaheguru.
Vaheguru. Vaheguru.

I had a desire to write about my current state of nothingness, even writing about it cannot really describe it and does not make it true that I am in this state, since I have lost the ability of comparison. But reading all the 12 stanzas, which mainly wrote themselves, I could only say Vaheguru! And this completed the 13th stanza of the poem, taking the reader into ecstasy. Sat Naam.
