Title: The senses and spirituality
Post by: Jitendra Hydonus on Nov 08, 2020 01:19 pm
The Mansion of Life

Or divine teacher, train me to recognize the difference between my souls lasting happiness and the passing pleasures of the senses. Keep my eyes open, that the senses deceive me not by wearing stolen royal trappings and the mirage-cloak of sacred happiness, and so disguised,  enter the mansion of my life.

Discipline my unwise wayward senses to spiritualize their pleasures that they may ever look beyond the illusion of glittering visible form to find a divine pleasure hidden behind the simplicities white robe.
