curiosity

curiosity is the hearts eye

romance

romance pales to love
but as loves servant
is a living poetry

i pray

to behold and carry the light
to love and to serve
to be complete within myself
without limitation

to quench my suffering with wisdom
and the patience to allow the divine flowering

the promise

just as the seed contains all it will ever be
the future of man is determined upon his birth

not every seed will flower
not every man shall bloom
yet all is perfect
for through the cycle of birth and death
the promise of attainment is inevitable

whether you be a rose, tulip or wildflower
in this illusion of time
each moment reveals your destiny

and do not mistake “will” as your own
for this is the play of the ego (the false-self)
remain the witness and observe divine force surging within
perform action only as His instrument
and delight in His flow
be the river and the course shall follow

* "Life on the Moon"

fight not your invisible enemies
for these are not battles that can ever be won
the real demon is the untamed mind
awaken as its master through self-inquiry
and enjoy the precious ride through infinity

Ive been listening to Lauryn Hill and coming to appreciate her spiritual wisdom...

"...truth comes from the inside not from the outside... we protect the outer man when our inner man is dying...... and we want to defend this curse..."

Khanna Uncle

living amonst us i took for granted your most special qualities
now you have passed and the tragedy is that I never touched your feet
bowing to your grace, humility and loving nature

you were divine and the most loving of persons
I thank you for the prayers you offered
for your peaceful nature, your radiant smiles
and for the softness of your eyes and heart

in your dance you were innocent and happy
you were someone that continuosly surrendered to divine will
suffering with such grace

you are sure to have an exalted birth
carrying your peace and understanding to the next world
you were a saint amongst us – a living example of godly nature

I offer my respect and prayer

myself

how can I truly experience beauty, love, joy
without seeing it within myself

doesn’t the bird sing
the flower bloom
from a love it feels inside

free will

there is no question of free will
the totality acts through us

true freedom is only had when we release our identification
with our egoic identity

our only responsibility is to act without regard to the outcome
being utterly spontaneous without interference from mind
will result in right action with no further karmic ties

action from mind is destined to bound to lead to karma
instead mind should be an instrument just as an appendage
from there wisdom may flourish

we

...our humanity is not an error.
