High on Waves

Avadhuta Gita

Why dost thou weep, friend? Thou hast no age.
Why dost thou weep, friend? Thou hast no mind.
Why dost thou weep, friend? Thou hast no senses.
I am the nectar of Knowledge, homogeneous Existence,
Like the sky.

Why weepest thou, friend? Thou hast no sickness or death.
Why weepest thou, friend? Thou hast no misery of birth.
Why weepest thou, friend? There is no change for thee.
I am the nectar of Knowledge, homogeneous Existence,
Like the sky.

Why dost thou weep, friend? Thou hast no lust.
Why dost thou weep, friend? Thou hast no greed.
Why dost thou weep, friend? Thou hast no delusion.
I am the nectar of Knowledge, homogeneous Existence,
Like the sky.

Thou hast not the nature of non-attachment in the slightest,
Nor hast thou in the slightest the nature of attachment.
Thou hast not even the slightest of the nature of desire.
I am the nectar of Knowledge, homogeneous Existence,
Like the sky.

Thou hast no name and form even to the extent of allusion,
Nor any substance differentiated or undifferentiated.
Why dost thou grieve, O thou of shameless mind?
I am the nectar of Knowledge, homogeneous Existence,
Like the sky.
