Control

there is no such thing as control

a friend of a friend of a friend

ego

just as stones on the beach
are gently worn away by the forces of nature
our egos are dissolved in time
through the grace of Mother

our world

The Divine creates from his will
Creation is but love manifest

Why do we scorn the very essence of life
And then spend our lives searching for that which we denied

Let us awaken to our purpose
To know ourselves as the One

We have taken this beautiful human form and made it ugly
We have forsaken our brothers and sisters
To pursue our selfish desires only to create pain for all

Let us find the beauty in each other and share ourselves
And rejoice in the knowing that we have been given life
To experience, to love, to be and to create

Let us sing and dance together
To the love song that emanates from the depths of the Self

Do not deny this feeling for another moment
Life is precious and it is calling us to rise

Let us awaken!

i searched many lives, paths and clues
i have found the doorway in a place i least expected
not in the scriptures
not in the mystery schools
not in the stars or in science

through your grace i find myself in my tears
a heart opening to the sun like a lotus flower

amma, amma, amma
you are a living presence
the potential of man is found in the love of a mother

grant me the courage to blossom
and follow you to the Self
to the inner sky that contains all the heavens

your light reveals my greed, lust and selfishness
there is nothing i could have done to earn this flowering
i am purified only through your divine grace

Society

It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.

Krishnamurti

hidden

god is as stars hidden in day

what now?

the current moment determines the next
(at least on the linear plane...)

so why worry about tomorrow?
act now instead and let tomorrow take care of itself

then what now?
dont worry about that either
flow, let existence act through you
be your part of the cosmic whole

you'll know what to do
the future will pull you to itself of its own accord
allow the next moment to reveal itself

yet you are making it all happen
but just who are YOU?

look inside, meditate on it
the you that you think you are is but a thought
behind the clouds you are found
as a vessel of the totality

this is the only thing up to you
will you play your part as your individuated egoic self
or as the universal Self

know yourself to know the Truth
this is the cosmic puzzle
that once answered cannot be spoken

the true path

the seeker is the sought
the traveller the goal
