Spiritual Advancement

DS
Dr. Shehzad Saleem
April 2019 · 1 min read

Purity starts with the eye

Bidding lowly lust good bye

 

Over indulgence is checked

If soul with purity is decked

 

Follow what the heart says

Good conduct always pays

 

How we behave in strife

Is one tough test of life

 

When God's blessings abound

And His favours are profound

 

We must express gratitude

And have a humble attitude

 

A trial wealth and riches are

And yes that lambhorgini car

 

By vanity the soul is tainted

And with show off painted

 

The pure shall be in paradise

If only in time we can realize

 

Let it be our coveted goal

Home of the serene soul
