Experiencing Interruptions?

"Reality or Fear of Illusion"

💫 This world around is,
It's just an illusion.
We see everything here,
A creation of our mind.

💫 Throughout our lives, we gather fears.
And we fight them with swords.
Having met snakes on the road,
In sweat we run away from them,
So not daring to approach fear of this.

💫 If we had come closer to see That it wasn't a scary snake at all. A rope of threads lay on the ground, But our minds created horror...

💫 So, too, this world,
Is just illusion's might,
Yet we invent tales of fright.

💫 Books on this have been composed,
But we have forgotten how to read.
It's easier to believe in lies,
Than to seek knowledge deep inside.

💫This rope metaphor,
Forgotten from long ago,
Wasn't crafted by me, you know.

💫This is a window to TRUTH, so open it.
A window to a beautiful world,
Where maya does not live, know this,
Where reality exists forever.

💫 And it has been waiting here so long,
In the moment of "Here and Now,"
You will see its power.

💫 And eyes will open instantly,
Irrevocably, timelessly,
Know YOURSELF entirely.

💫And this rope metaphor,
Forgotten from long ago...

💫This is a window to TRUTH, so open it.
A window to a beautiful world,
Where maya does not live, know this,
Where reality exists forever...

💫 This world around is,
It's just an illusion.
We see everything here,
A creation of our mind.

💫 Throughout our lives, we gather fears.
And we fight them with swords...

Song Description: "Reality or Fear of Illusion" is a deep and emotional song inspired by mystical understanding and philosophical ideas from the Upanishads. The story of the song unveils an illusion represented by a snake, which is actually just a rope lying on the ground. This metaphor reflects our world, which is an illusion created by our minds.

Creation Story: The inspiration for this song came from a close person named R., who knows about my ability to create rhyming poetry and has a deep mystical understanding. One day, he shared with me a story from the Upanishads where a snake symbolizes illusion. This story impressed me so much that I spontaneously felt inspired to create this incredible new song, which "was born" faster than ever before.
