Start a Quest to Discover the Purpose of Life

Who are you and Why are you Here? 

Why did you come to Earth, my Dear? 

Begin your Quest, do not Fear!

After 40 years, I started my Quest

I had the Guts to put all Beliefs to Test 

The Reward was Worth it, it was the Best!

I am not ‘I’, I Realized the Truth

I Searched and went to the Bottom of the Root 

It was my Quest that gave me the Fruit!

I am not this Body, this Body will Die

The Mind, I cannot find! How can it be ‘I’? 

The Ego says ‘I’, but it’s a big Lie!

We think life is just to have Fun

We live and soon, life is Done

Like mad people, in this Race we Run!

What is the Truth, Why this Human Birth? 

What is the Reason we Came to Earth?

The Quest will help us Answers, Unearth!

It all begins when we Start our Quest

Many Questions we list and we don’t Rest 

One by one, the Answers Attest

To get to the Truth, we need a Master

An Enlightened Guru will take us Forward Faster 

It is the Master who is our Spiritual Partner

It all begins by Overcoming Ignorance 

Transcending the Ego that Creates Arrogance 

The Truth and the Myth, Realizing the Difference

Therefore, first, there is Purification 

And soon there is Illumination

And finally, there is Realization

The first Realization is, ‘I am the Soul’

This, in the Quest, achieves my Goal

But what in my Purpose does this Play a Role?

The Soul is nothing but a Spark Of Unique Life

I Realized this and now I am Liberated from Strife 

Otherwise, with myths, our Life is Rife

The Realization helps us move Ahead

And Ultimately, in that Moment when we are Dead 

We are Liberated and United with the Lord, it’s Said!

Our Purpose is to become One with God

To Realize, within is the temple of the Lord

The Quest helps us see how our Beliefs are Flawed!

We always thought God was in a Temple or Church 

And then we started the Quest, the Search

To attain the Divine, we had an Urge

Are we just meant to Live and Die?

First, we must find out, ‘Who am I?’

We must Discriminate the Truth from the Lie

We may appear to be made of Bone and Skin

But the Truth is that we are the Divine that Lives Within 

Alas! This Ignorance is our Greatest Sin

It is our Mind that makes us Blind

It is the biggest enemy that Makes us Grind 

In the Purpose to find, we are Left Behind

So, first, we make the Monkey Mind a Monk 

It happens when we remove from it All Junk 

Till then, it seems we are Eternally Drunk!

The moment we transcend Body, Ego, and Mind 

In that moment, Life’s Truth, we will Find!

We will attain the One for Whom we Pined

When we move from Mind to Consciousness 

There are no thoughts, there is Thoughtlessness 

Then, there is Peace and Love, Eternal Happiness

Then, we Realize there is no Heaven and Hell 

These are lies that People Tell!

There are no Devils and Angels that Dwell

We are Liberated from that Life Race

Where we are running to be an Ace in the Chase 

The Quest helps us Live with Grace

In the Quest, we Overcome all our Trauma 

When we Realize that Life is a Drama 

Everything that happens is Controlled by Karma

At first, we would Cry and look at the Sky 

We would just Suffer and ask God, ‘Why?’ 

Till we Realized the Truth, Who am I?

We Realize two things we don’t control on Earth 

We don’t control Death, we don’t control Birth 

It is then we learn to live with Mirth

We Realize we are not the Mind and Ego, ME 

We are not the one in the Mirror whom we See 

Then, we are Free to Be who we are Meant to Be

It is in that moment that all Miseries Cease 

It is the Quest that gives us Peace

We Realize all this, Piece by Piece

At first, we had believed, ‘I was I’

The Quest revealed that this was a Lie 

I am the Soul that will Never Die!

It is the Quest that Cuts all Strings 

It Liberates us, the one who Clings 

It helps us fly, it Opens our Wings

We Realize that Pleasure Comes and it Goes 

But Eternal Bliss, Forever Flows

Upon going on a Quest, this Truth Glows

The Mind that otherwise says, ‘I am Everything!’ 

It is exposed, it is a Rascal, not a King!

In fact, it causes All Suffering

It is the Quest that Makes us Shine

We Discover that within, Lives the Divine 

Then, there is Eternal Sunshine

Without the Quest, there will be Death and Birth 

Ignorance will make us Return to Earth

The Quest Liberates us from Rebirth

How can you remove the Darkness in a Room?

Can you Sweep it away with a Broom?

The Quest brings in Light, that will Eliminate all Gloom

We all arrive from the very same Womb 

But Foolishly, through Life we just Zoom 

And Ultimately, we reach our Tomb!

Without a Quest, life is like a Circus 

We are Clowns living without Purpose 

It is the Quest that makes life, Precious

Start your Quest or you will Suffer Again 

The Mind will pour Thoughts like Rain 

And it will Push you down the Drain

For Thoughts don’t Knock, they Enter the Door 

Uninvited they come and Push us on the Floor

The Quest Pushes the Mind out and Shuts the Door

We all live in this World and Crave

Of the Mind and Ego, we become a Slave 

It is the Quest that makes us Brave

The Quest begins when there is Yearning 

The Yearning is what starts our Learning

It creates that Passion that keeps us Burning

 

Otherwise, in the Mind, we are all Caught

In Toxic Emotions, in many a Poisonous Thought 

The Quest ties the Divine Knot

When we start our Quest we Venture 

Then we let go of Worldly Pleasure

And we achieve our Life’s True Treasure

Without the Quest, there is no Light

We live with anger, jealousy and we Fight 

The Truth remains Far, Out of Sight!

Ignorance causes all the Blunder

It creates misery, it Creates Thunder 

Realization makes us Surrender

Are you looking for Happiness and for Bliss? 

The Quest will lead to eternal Happiness

Start it now, it’s not something we should Miss

It will start with Self-Realization

And Ultimately, lead to God-Realization 

March ahead without any Hesitation

It is the Quest that will give us the Purpose of Life 

It will Liberate us from Misery and Strife

We must cut through the Myth with a Sharp Knife

So start a Quest, don’t just Live and Die

Find out life’s Purpose, ask the question, ‘Why?’ 

Do it now! Start with, ‘Who am I?’
