Lalla-Naked-Song
Lalla lived in Kashmir in the 14th century, when many doctrinal streams were merging: Shaivism, sufism, Vedantic non-dualism, and other -isms, but Lalla is beyond religious categories, a living combination that cannot be described in those terms.

When the mirror of my consciousness became clear,<br />
I saw that my family and others I<br />
love are the same as me.<br />
The "you" and "I" thought<br />
does not occur.<br />
The entire world is God.<br />
* * *<br />
Lord, you exist<br />
as me. Your power moves,<br />
and I start walking.<br />
A prior impulse is the only difference<br />
between us. Other than that,<br />
everything I am is You.<br />
Life is given.<br />
Nothing is earned,<br />
so learn to serve others,<br />
not your own desire and greed<br />
and ego. They steal your energies,<br />
whereas devotion builds your strength<br />
and protects the intelligent flame<br />
that leads to the truth within.<br />
* * *<br />
Meditate, and grow humble.<br />
Watch anger and wanting<br />
turn to ashes.<br />
Study the ground, <strong>Lalla</strong>,<br />
as a sign of attainment.
