Excellent Reflecting on life and death at a viewing of departed friend Random Reflections. : Maya-A Dream State. by Niyuta

Once the Doer that reigned within with vitality, the prowess of youth. Where is the valor and wisdom you had? Now, the Doer has departed from the shell, upon departing, it took the accounts of life, Karma, the sum total of the life you led. Lifeless as a corpse, handsome as you were. Fulfilling the destiny-dust to dust, returning. The life lived was nothing but a dream-Maya. Author Notes Doer mentioned in the poem is the spirit that resides and never dies. Once it is free; only the shell is left and all that ego one harbors in the heart for the looks and accomplishments of life lived come to nought. Its a delusion(Maya) one lives as a mortal.
