We were put on this earth with nothing,
And we can't leave, even with one thing.
In between, We get attached to everything,
On earth everything is temporary and needs understanding.
Possessions, status and all kinds of relationship,
Wealth, success and achievements, not in our grip.
All that we gain today will be lost tomorrow,
Even the strongest tree perishes, once it fully grows.
Everything changes including your body,
But the soul stays intact and not greedy.
Your body is a temporary form of transit,
To the next journey, when time comes you exit.
None can harm, hurt or own your soul
Passing through containers should be one's goal.
The soul is our true self, one should realise,
It is eternal and free, expect to reprise.
Pleasures and pains only causes suffering,
Just transcend with experience and in developing.
We are just a part in a play that is divine,
Filled with ups and downs, loss and gain.
All that exists on earth, does not belong to any,
Though with wealth and possessions, there are many.
We are just custodians of all materials in world,
That is the message even the supreme once told.
Once we accept the divine order of life,
One will be free from all kinds of grief.
Birth and death is like changing one's attire,
A process continues until the soul gets retired.
