Essence: Reconciliation

What a peculiar interlude,
As boundaries dissolved
And I felt the indivisibility
Of all

But then later,
Hatred burst forth
And I brought mindfulness to it,
Or so I thought,

For as I finished
And got up,
The oddest feeling overcame me,
That I’d been deeply deluded,

It was as if,
I’d been someone else,
Some alien being,
Totally foreign,

Shocked and dismayed
I turned away
From this unpleasant experience,
Rejecting it,

Then later,
When feeling more connected
And having time to
Concentrate,

Turned inwards
Once again
And there it was,
This intense ill will,

What to do?
I considered,
Then held it with compassion,
Spreading joy and happiness throughout.
