Living Inwardly
We may have achieved extraordinary growth
In life, in career, in wealth, in prosperity
But is it true a true measurement?
Of judging the human growth engine?
True human growth is the inward growth
Not outward, financial, nor physical
Not educational, religious, nor social
Not industry, space, nor security
But keeping the inward temple clean
To install the Divine Deity there
We must be always happy and cheerful
In all positive or negative circumstances
Stepping back from instant reaction
Saying absolutely indispensable things
Remaining immobile without getting shaken
Always living this life in a gratitude sense
Utilising the unoccupied moments to discover
To know why I am here?
Are we leading this life haphazardly?
By listening to inner call always.
