MASK
I am consciousness alone
Wearing the body-mask for the time being
And watching how the Cosmic Soul
Has put on the mask of the universe
I am related to everyone and everything
I am beyond death
When the time comes
I shall cast away the mask
And be one with the Cosmic Soul
:) So beautiful thoughts, merging with universe as one soul

ReplyDeleteyou are right in that connection between each of us...even as much as we try to deny it at times....and our rejoining together as one there in the end...
ReplyDeleteThe collective consciousness...yes...I loved this because I think we are connected and all part of the same cosmos. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI specially like that ending, being one with the cosmic soul ~
