Magnificent energy, all there is
Infinite, boundless, perfect bliss
A drop from the ocean, a spark from the fire
Each soul comes forth, its greatest desire
To create a life, through which it may grow
And learn, and feel, and ultimately, know
The very perfection from which it came
To which it shall return again
The soul, a sculptor, with loving hands
Moulds its carriage, in the shape of man
The soul, a director, with loving vision
Chooses a life for its human mission
The mind is focused in time and space
The body is birthed, our world to grace
Patterns repeated; ideas, beliefs
Weave the story, of life, of grief
Truth forgotten, illusion deepens
Fear controls, consciousness weakens
Separation, self deception
Fantasy of our own invention
Actors on this worldly stage
Must untangle this web, this limiting cage
Reach within, and feel your soul
Your connection to the source of all
Find that essence, that magic spark
You’ve felt before, deep in your heart
Let it fill your very being
Change the world that you are seeing
Set intentions every day
Strive to be conscious in every way
Integrated, full and whole
Embodying your perfect soul
Beliefs and patterns interrupted
False illusion you constructed
Crumbles, powerless, to the ground
Love and joy and peace abound
Vision returns, with compassion you
Reach out, help others remember too
