THE UNBOUND IV: FROM THE ABODE OF DECEPTION, TO THE ABODE OF PEACE
The journey
from the abode of deception
to the abode of peace
is not easy at all.
But then,
every journey begins with the first step:
So now that I have started,
I cannot stop
or falter, or fall.
The path is straight
and the light shines brighter:
The devils do not frighten me now,
so, with the goal in sight,
I must keep moving ahead,
without being clouded by doubts,
or lured by temptations,
or waylaid by seductions..
Yes, I must keep marching onward,
and onward, till I succeed...
Divine guidance and help,
strengthen my being,
within and without,
as illusions and delusions,
Have no sway or power,
over me anymore...
Thus, I must not give up now,
or allow myself to be entrapped
by falsehood and guile,
or become charmed by sweet songs,
Full of empty promises and lies.
I have to be firm,
and stronger than ever,
and, with my Lord God's help,
I must make sure that
I reach my destination:
The abode of true peace,
and the sublime elevation,
which awaits me there...
Everything leading there,
shines clearer,
as I cross the hurdles,
and the obstacles posed,
By those abiding, in the abode of deception:
Yes, I find myself, finally drawing nearer,
To the abode of peace, in a higher dimension.
