Effortless Effort....

 

Effort for what?

To start the journey?

Journey where?

Your inward.

How to start?

Just close your eyes.

Is it where effort stops?

Having closed your eyes,

Sitting relaxedly,

With spine erect

Effort simple,

Not a herculean one,

Shall be to watch,

Observe your

Inhale

And

Exhale.

As you merge with observing,

Yeah

You are in complete

Nishta –

The stillness.

The Bliss state,

You transcend all

Maya.

No more effort.

There you throb

In bliss.

Welcome to that

Sweet state.

Once in the

Brahma Muhurta.

If possible, at Sunset.

In between,

As many times

As possible and

As you like.
