Soul Torment
04:58
|
|||
Torment begins
After one fails to
Decipher the laws
Of nature
Poison, corrosion
Moral erosion
Takes place
Resulting in
Soul torment
Emotional imbalance
Mental disillusion
Relations sever
Prosper only to
Witness downfall
Friendships are a farce
Family members turn distant
Love is an expression
Unworthy to be felt
Soul torment
Spiritual perception
Pierces through deception
The laws of nature
Unseen but present
Disobey at your own peril

Altars of Redemption
05:02
|
|||
Too often we transfer the blame
For the wrong we have done
The Creator is not responsible
For the things we have done wrong
Moral transgressions have consequences
Failure to comply causes degradation of life
What is beyond normal comprehension
Is not necessarily false
Too often we think we are masters
Everything is in our grasp
If that is so why do we suffer
Mortals perish that is the law
Law is created by a higher power
Governed by forces beyond our control
Forces we can’t see exist
As does our Creator

Incarnations
05:00
|
|
||
It is foolish to assume
That one life is all we have
What we sow we reap
In this incarnation or the next
Some are born rich, some poor
Some healthy, some crippled
There is a universal law
That dictates the destiny
Destiny is self-written
Shaped by our choices
There is always an option
To do good or bad
Our choices mould our destiny
Through incarnations
The only way out is to evolve
Progressively in every incarnation

Root of Suffering
02:19
|
|||
Suffering
Compels one to change
To look within
To find the root
Suffering
Is a teacher
Without suffering
There would be no change
Suffering
Makes you appreciate
The things that you
Take for granted
The root of suffering
Is your ignorance
Of the universal laws
Common to one and all
|

Circle of Life
03:55
|
|||
Circle of life
Geared by deeds
To be reaped
What you have sown
Trapped in this life
Without any memories
Of the past
Future is what you make yourself
Scattered hopes
Bittersweet experiences
Longing for deliverance
From a higher power
Justice is served
Destiny is self-made
No one to blame
But yourself
The only way out
Of this circle of life
Is not death
It is the knowing of the imperishable Self

The Seven Gates of Hell
02:41
|
|||
Criminals
Evil doers, sinners
Have a place for them
In the seven realms
Of increasing severity
After death
They are not free
They are confined to the
Nightmarish chambers of
Hellish suffering
Penance has its forms
You can't escape your fate
Guilt is your only companion
Help is in guise of temporary relief
One's life is not meaningless
Not to be wasted in the gambles of delusions
For like the seven gates of hell
There are indeed the seven gates of heaven

Destiny of Mortals
04:42
|
|||
Chaos regimes
Influence hordes
What is condemned
Leads to damnation
War, plagues, famines
Destruction through the aeons
Is nature’s way of restoring balance
To the world that is rotting
Ultimately good prevails
Kingdoms are toppled
Mass genocide
Victimized are freed
To be a part of this madness
Is upon the individual
What others do, is not necessary
That you should do also

Arena of Souls
03:23
|
|||
Metaphysical entities
Roam in the realms beyond our own
Contact is possible
Through evil and spiritual means
Evident through the ages
Communication with the dead
Is a secret art
Forbidden
Possession is possible
Through the contact of disembodied souls
History is proof of its existence
Medical science is futile
Dream is the portal
Through which messages are transferred
Everyone has had that experience
Few realize its meaning
|

Hatred Breeds Suffering
04:03
|
|||
Contempt for humanity
Hatred for individuals
Despise the notion
Animosity
It is a boomerang
For it attracts those who you
Hate the most
Preoccupation
Wishing for the downfall of others
Brings the downfall of our own
Catastrophic redemption
Invokes the suffering
On our own self
The more you hate
The more you suffer
The more you suffer
The more you realize
That hatred breeds suffering
|

Sins of Mankind
03:17
|
|||
Jealousy
Of the pernicious kind
Causes self-destruction
Through karmic retribution
Hatred
Decimates peace of mind
Causes mental imbalance
Emotions raging out of control
Greed
Wanting for more than desired
Causes endless dissatisfaction
Never content, never happy
Treachery
Is the worst of all sins
Causes magnified suffering
For betrayal of trust and faith
Suicide
Is irredeemable
Causes one to be reborn in dire state
For transgressing the life of a human soul
