The Self - New Poem and Ruddy Sunrise

I was asked to argue for the persistence
Of the Self, as by Vedanta proposed,
The essential being of our existence,
Behind mind/body which comes and goes.

For this Sankara gave the following views:
'Awareness persisting through all mind-states,
Is therefore eternal', needing no reviews,
As there’s not a time when it lapses or abates.

'Also by memory of all states we can recall
That we are the same one experiencing,
So this Self must be changeless and eternal',
For it’s never ending or recommencing.

However, for us to truly know our ‘being’,
We need to deeply investigate on our own,
So beyond these propositions we're seeing
That which is present ‘ere we're full grown.

In this very moment and all that have before been,
There are sensations by body and its senses detected,
Thoughts and mental images, appearing on the ‘screen’
Of Awareness, so that mind can process what’s reflected.

This Awareness is a constant perceiving presence,
Whereas all else are objects that come and go,
So this presence is our true fundamental essence,
That has witnessed our life’s ‘experience flow’.

Persisting in all states and by memory ‘known’,
Awareness, by which mind/body are ‘seen’,
The eternal essence we can call our own,
By which we've experienced all that's been.
