Is the pivotal point
That moves one on
From the divided self
To the holistic self
The culmination of spirituality
The divided self
An inner awareness of chaos
Inner storm
The struggle between
Two souls within
Weakness of will
Versus higher life
Distress is experienced
In the process of
Such an inner struggle
Eventually the inner struggle
Of the divided self
Culminates in an emergence
Into inner unity and peace
The most salient features
Of this inner unity are
Heightened feelings, powers of action, and
New insights
Especially through experiences
Designated as mystical
One surpasses the inner storm
Of the troubled, divided self
And enters into the lasting, ecstatic
Unity of freedom and peace
