Grim Arithmetic

Poem:

The surging death toll is a grim arithmetic. Due to Covid-19 I have been meditating a long time. It is good not to waste time with death on the horizon. You can exercise a lot and push your metabolic age down to 39 and hope you survive. If you made future plans you can cancel them all. It may be easier to do Simran when you have nothing to plan. You can stockpile spiritual books from the library and then get to keep them. If the internet goes down you could just develop your Third Eye. You do not have to be a High Priest to do systematic increases. You can become acquainted with death as suggested by Plato, Proclus and Porphyry. Instead of waiting in line you could change your Mind. You can radiate your throat on the way to your Third Eye.
