I’ve
started a religion
A
religion of The Self
All
those other testaments
Should
be put on the shelf
No
more silly praying
To
some shrouded higher being
No
more senseless sacrifice
To
gods we are not seeing
The
Way of The Self is self-contained
It
does not need promotion
It
flows within, through thick and thin
Like
waters in the ocean
But
knowing of The Self, indeed
Is
not some selfish thing
For
that is where your love comes from
Like
waters from a spring
We
do not have commandments
We
have no holy laws
We
simply embrace everyone
Despite
their many flaws
We
don’t demand your loyalty
We
do not need your money
We
do not charge admission
To
lands of milk and honey
We
don’t condone dependence
We
promote self-reliance
No
overlords or council boards
We
put our faith in science
Care
for yourself and mind your health
You
want life to be good
We
don’t care what you eat or drink
Just
do things that you should
We
do not care what clothes you wear
We
don’t demand donations
We
do not hate our brothers
Who
come from other nations
We
do not care what makes a pair
Be
they husbands or wives
You
can have more, if you dare
We
don’t control your lives
So
sing a song, and smile and dance
Arrange
all your ducks neatly
For
who knows where we go from here?
Just
love your life completely
But how can it be a religion without guilt?! Just kidding. I like the sound of this. :P
