I tried looking for my mind
But I couldn’t find it anywhere
I climbed the Himalayan mountains
Right to the top
Dancing with the eagles
I swam in the Dead Sea
Letting my body float
For who knows how long
I flew in a hot air balloon
Across the red Arabic sky
Sand as far as the eye can see
I ventured through the cold,
wintery forests of Russia
Taking refuge with the wolves
I blazed through the deserts of America
On a Harley Davidson
Riding with the coyotes
I studied with the shaolin monks
To calm my mind
In China
I rode horses on a sea of grass
Drinking fermented milk
In Mongolia
I walked through streets filled
With cherry blossoms
And people
In Japan
I fished salmon in the lakes
Of Alaska
Competing with the bears
But no matter where I go
Or what I do
I can’t seem to find my mind
Well done. When you find your mind, perhaps you could give me a hand… 😉

In a spiritual sense, the loss of our mind is a good thing! Beautifully written!

It’s a matter of perspective – mine is from that of a seeker and trying to understand the incessant chatter that goes on in my mind. One of the best books I read on the subject is “The Untethered Soul” by Micheal Singer. There is some science behind his message too. https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/get-out-your-mind/201309/the-science-beneath-the-untethered-soul-defusion
