Vatsala connects with her inner self, the divine core, and seeks strength from the off-white light. A poem of peace and prayer exclusively for Different Truths.

I close the mundane blurred eyes,
Within seconds, open the inner eyes, all-bright,
Now I can see some light off-white
It’s neither linear, nor spherical
but homogeneous, continuous, undoubtedly eternal.

To the off-white light
that generates the universe generously
now connects the subtlest, the minutest part
within me.

I have no fears,
I feel no anger,
I don’t have vain questions
to answer,
To the Divine I feel closer,
I dwell in a realm genuinely safer.
