Dharma and Karma
Engaging in action, based on dharma,
without anticipating an outcome,
generates for the earth soul, no karma.
Such desirelessness is found quite seldom,
for all that monks yearn for, is God’s kingdom.
Looking from afar, at their detachment,
we secretly admire their contentment,
wishing that one day we too do ascend,
standing erect, blissful, luminescent
but are loathe to let go, will to love bend.
