You and I are Free Forever

You and I are Free Forever

A poem written by Master to Rajarsi Janakananda May 5 1949.

My Little One,

You and I are one.

In Mother Supreme

In Her Eternity's dream.

When this Earth melts in the cosmic death

And our bodies dissolve, as they must,

Still our souls as a blended starlet will shine

Forever, ever expanding in the Divine.

This life is not only a dream,

But a dream

That already has come and gone

In the Mind of the Divine One.

Thus, do I behold with Eternity's eyes of old

All our earthly business pressures

Scant successes, struggles, and nightmares

All already dissolved in Time's cosmic molten stream

Flowing from Her cosmic dream.

You and I though nigh,

Are no more here

In this cosmic motion picture.

Since you are gone

There is no worry,

Struggle none:

Only to calmly remember

We dreamt our dream and now are with Her, only Her.

Dreams are disturbing and hard to take,

But each dreamer should dream half-awake.

Nightmares and beautiful dreams

Are true awhile, but never as they seem

So good or bad, whatever be coming,

Remember you are dreaming, only dreaming.

This dream lies that we are here,

Prisoners of a clot of earth

Chained to life and death

While we are already free-everywhere

'Tis delusion that tells

Salvation and freedom are far away

'Tis wisdom that knows we dwell

In everlasting freedom now and always.

In wakefulness of samadhi's light

Forget all dreams of the cosmic night

You and I are free forever

Now, e'en now, in the Cosmic Mother.

Where we are

No scratch of worries can ever come near.

You and I forever are

Shining in Her Love's star.
