~ The Calling ~

Friend, aspire towards clarity while you are alive,
Jump into experience while you are alive,
For, what you call “salvation”
Belongs to the time before death.
If you do not break the chains while you are alive,
Do you think ghosts will do it after?
The idea that the spirit will join with the ecstatic,
After this body is discarded ~ that is all fantasy.
What is found now is found then;
If you find nothing now,
You will simply end up empty hearted,
In the endless sea of birth and death.
But, if you reach out and experience,
The all-embracing Love of the Divine now;
Then in this very life,
You will have the face of satisfied desire,
And know true peace and fulfillment.
