come down mountain, flow to the sea, keep on returning to me

this features a verse from the Katha Upanishad 2.2.7
योनिमन्ये प्रपद्यन्ते शरीरत्वाय देहिनः ।
स्थाणुमन्येऽनुसंयन्ति यथाकर्म यथाश्रुतम् ॥ ७ ॥
yonimanye prapadyante śarīratvāya dehinaḥ ।
sthāṇumanye'nusaṃyanti yathākarma yathāśrutam

'Some jivas (dehinah) go into wombs to be embodied; others pass into the immoveable, according to their karma and to their knowledge.'

"Some souls enter the womb to have a body, others go to the plants just according to their work and according to their knowledge. The philosophy behind this verse is that everyone of us is born to not be born again. We are here to know that you are never born, that we will never die and that we have to give up the disease of becoming. This is why we are born and until this is locked into our heads and hands, we will keep going through the struggle of feeling limited. Inspite of perfect lives, we still feel incomplete. This is because no permutation or combination of the external that is ever going to make us complete. How can one feel this completeness. It is by Krita Atma (to feel the Atma). The word “Krita” refers to the “Satya yuga”, also known as “Krita yuga”. Krita is when there is total integration between one’s thoughts, words and actions. Krita atma means one has integrated with the spirit."
