A Wizard's Way

A Wizard's Way

There are seven stages,

say the wisest of sages,

in the evolution of human

consciousness.


This perennial philosophy

seeks to attain the kingdom

where levels of freedom petition

to break the boundaries in the prison

of known and past conditioned.


The population circulates

in the waking, dreaming, sleeping states,

blind to the ability of the mind

to spontaneously orchestrate

space and time.


Mythic symbols

refer beyond personalities

transcendent of thought

in this transcosmic unity.


Death is always stalking

behind the mechanics of creation

and even captures masters of meditation

who seize the moment in celebration

to hand out invitations to their

weddings with eternity.


Infinite universes co-exist

in this symphony of existence

where dreams are illusions

because manufactured in the brain,

making waking reality

just the same.


The end of (1)Innocence

marks the birth of the (2)Ego,

here fear and attachment take

precedence over the self,

being sacrificed for self image,

wearing social masks to hide the (3)Achiever

reaching higher for desires:

approval, money, power,

as guilty (4)Givers give

out of ego gratification

whereas the (5)Seeker seeks to give

out of love and compassion,

while true searchers surrender needs to

defend, predict, control,

but gain glimpses of a (6)Seer's soul

who becomes an alert witness 

to roads played out by the ego

so is seldom overshadowed by the scenery

until directly experiencing the self as

(7)Spirit

where aware of connection to all matter

and lives in this world, yet

not of it.
