Understanding: The Never-Ending Loop

[JalJala]

We chase the truth, we seek the light,
But understanding’s out of sight.
We think we’ve found what’s clear and true,
Yet end up lost, as we renew.

Each answer we find seems to fade,
Leaving us in a shifting shade.
We try to grasp what makes it right,
But end up back in the same old fight.

The more we search, the more we spin,
Caught in a loop we’re stuck within.
What we hope to see so near,
Turns into fog, unclear.

Understanding is a never-ending track,
We run in circles, always back.
The more we try to solve the maze,
The more we’re trapped in this endless craze.

Life

I appreciate your precise observation on the poem. However, I see it from a different angle. To me, life is more about witnessing the present moment rather than trying to understand or analyze it. Understanding, recognizing, and experiencing are all aspects of individual perception—subjective processes shaped by our memories and personal biases. These can sometimes obscure the direct witnessing of the present moment.

Witnessing, on the other hand, involves engaging with life as it is, without the filters of personal interpretation. It represents the essence of the present moment, which can’t be fully understood or recognized, only witnessed directly. While understanding and recognition can be useful, they often pull us away from the immediate reality of the present, leading us into a cycle of confusion and disconnection. To me, life is best approached through witnessing the present moment without getting caught up in the loop of seeking clarity.

We chase the truth, we seek the light,
But understanding’s out of sight.
We think we’ve found what’s clear and true,
Yet end up lost, as we renew.

Each answer we find seems to fade,
Leaving us in a shifting shade.
We try to grasp what makes it right,
But end up back in the same old fight.

The more we search, the more we spin,
Caught in a loop we’re stuck within.
What we hope to see so near,
Turns into fog, unclear.

Understanding is a never-ending track,
We run in circles, always back.
The more we try to solve the maze,
The more we’re trapped in this endless craze.

We chase the truth, we seek the light,
But understanding’s out of sight.
We think we’ve found what’s clear and true,
Yet end up lost, as we renew.

Each answer we find seems to fade,
Leaving us in a shifting shade.
We try to grasp what makes it right,
But end up back in the same old fight.

The more we search, the more we spin,
Caught in a loop we’re stuck within.
What we hope to see so near,
Turns into fog, unclear.

Understanding is a never-ending track,
We run in circles, always back.
The more we try to solve the maze,
The more we’re trapped in this endless craze.

Amid the chase, we lose our way, In seeking light, we find the gray. But though the path seems ever long, In every step, we're growing strong.

The truth we seek may shift and sway, Yet it's the journey, not the stay, That brings us closer to what's real, In every turn, new truths reveal.

So let's embrace the twists and bends, For in the search, the soul ascends. Understanding might elude our sight, But every quest brings us new light.
