Evoked: Concentration Rising

Here we go again,
Back to work
But in a happy mood,
Feeling free,

Lightness prevails,
Even in darkness,
Outside it’s gloomy,
Inside it’s cheery,

The clouds have cleared
And there’s a chill in the air
But it’s warm in here
And without any apprehension,

Bewilderment has gone through,
Along with the storm
And quiet prevails
All the way around,

Not minding the wind,
Disregarding the obstacles,
“Putting aside greed
and distress with reference to the world” (SN: 48:10),

I remain focused
And steady,
The mind unshakable,
My concentration unbreakable,

Mindfulness is here too,
Awareness and calm,
Peacefulness and hereness,
Ease and fearlessness,

Imperturbable and present,
Ready for whatever becomes evident,
Wholly immersed
In this.
