Puff the magic kripto...one puff and you are immortal..can you puff?

Lead me from dreaming to waking.
Lead me from opacity to clarity.
Lead me from the complicated to the simple.
Lead me from the obscure to the obvious.
Lead me from intention to attention.
Lead me from what I'm told I am to what I see I am. Lead me  from confrontation to wide openness. Lead me to the place I never left, Where there is peace, and peace - The Upanishads
*note* lovely song Puff the magic dragon quote"The lyrics for "Puff, the Magic Dragon" were based on a 1959 poem by Leonard Lipton, a 19-year-old Cornell University student. Lipton was inspired by an Ogden Nash poem titled "Custard the Dragon," about a "realio, trulio little pet dragon."

Lipton was friends with Peter Yarrow's housemate when they were all students at Cornell. He used Yarrow's typewriter to get the poem out of his head."
Anyway..I'll post the lyrics..here they are:
Puff, the magic kripto,
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called nirvanas swamis,see?
Little Jackie Paper
Loved that rascal Puff,
And brought him strings and sealing wax
And other fancy stuff.
Puff, the magic dragon
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honah Lee. Oh!
Puff, the magic dragon
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honah Lee.
Together they would travel
On a boat with billowed sail.
Jackie kept a lookout perched
On Puff`s gigantic tail.
Noble kings and princes
Would bow whene`er they came,
Pirate ships would lower their flags
When Puff roared out his name. Oh!
Puff, the magic dragon
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honah Lee. Oh!
Puff, the magic dragon
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honah Lee.
A dragon lives forever,
But not little girls and boys.
Painted wings and giant rings
Make way for other toys.
One gray night it happened,
Jackie Paper came no more
And Puff that mighty dragon,
He ceased his fearless roar.
His head now bent in sorrow,
Green scales fell like rain,
And Puff no longer went to play
Along that cheery lane.
Without his life-long friend,
He could not be brave,
So Puff that mighty dragon
Sadly slipped into his cave.
Puff, the magic dragon
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honah Lee. Oh!


Puff, the magic kripto...
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called nirvana sea..you see?
So I composed this never heard stanza
Behold the magic dragon
Wake him up
And he will puff you up
Into immortality
Like kripto was puffed
Why can't you get puffed up too?
I know why..
You are afraid not to become it..
Kisses to the grasshoppers..
Don't be..just puff the magic dragon inside you
And trust the magic dragon powers inside you.
But you must puff it first,so the kripto inside you can puff it  back,with amazing powers..beyond your grasshopper beliefs..trust me...
It takes a puff,only one..to became immortal.
Ponder,grasshoppers..one puff.
I know you can do it.
Thus spokenth the mahayogi:)
