You are your own source
A wellspring of your Self
An outpouring dream
As waters of bodies
Become the cup from which you drink
Full of all that is forever you
The ambrosia from which you sip
Eternity swallowed by one dayThis garden is your ground
Where seedlings unfurl and twist around
Twist around, stakes and vines climb up
Losely widening what is unbound
Travelling sunward, The I, and I alone.
Sprouting softly shimmer tender
Have you not seen, how all opens on its own?
Little pieces of everywhere linger and waitFor a tide drawing back into itself
Towards the place to which you thirst
Absent of ties and free of past days
Gliding out forth, flight by night
Leaving the house to enter your home
Ways winged to where all of you resides
You are here, light ahead
Your own source of free and might -
Resounding through stillness
An echo quietly stirs
A pulse ripples into stream
Within the harmonics of the unspoken
Octaves tremble out of the unseenWhispers from before unfold
A Symphony woven in between
Heard only in the silence untold
From a single tune is born
A current, a string of wavesA chorus of souls, intertwined
Humming threads stitched into weave
Underneath a stem of tone
Rising deep recalls of home received
In melody untouched, yet deeply knownA song plays
Your sacred name -
Do not deny what is written for you by dwelling in its absenceThere is something wanting to be explored so eagerly that it can no longer be contained
Something that seeks to exist beyond you
With your hands so full, how can you grab the hand held out to you?
An egg does not resist the hatching of the birdling cracking its shell
Let the pieces fall out of your open hands
Welcoming the unmaking of that which is not yours
Make your heart the most gracious host
In prepare of the arrival of the beloved guest
Finding belonging in the readiness
Of your sincere invitation
-
Waste as much time
as you possibly can
Staring at the morning light
Forgetting yourself in the nothing
Letting your coffee get cold
Gently returning from the other world
Where you have wandered last night
Gazing out without a plan
Doing nothing but dwell behind
In that magical space of delight
Of twilight in between
Waking and asleep
Let your coffee get cold again
Waste perfectly timed
In the dreamy deep
Of the Don’t Mind -
The closest kind of gentle touch
on skin, softly holding your own hand
In love for Self from Self
we bathe, dissolving
the body eases in and blends
melting into deep reliefIn rest restored
anointed by slow repose
we marinade in loves making to itself
Savouring the hearts inhale
a softening of senses full
cherished in one's own embrace
of taste of sweet surrendered
a tender chill gives in
as whole -
Cease trying and drop into rest,
relax in the sacred undoing
where the era of will and wanting ends.
All your unfulfilled desires
are still lingering above you
lost in mazes of thick and misty greys
somewhere out of love
awaiting to be cradled or be crushed
with a swift slingshot of your mind's eye
and a loving heart
wanting nothing but to open right now
and handing you over to life's aid.
Real freedom does not need freeing
in a desireless state, unattached,
is where creation becomes play.
A hue of “what if” appears ahead as
trusting something you once knew
Suddenly you stop, wonder and see
the pendulum starting to sway
from potential to possible, a cliff,
edges dissolve, spilling into the new,
sun on your face, slight breeze
the weightless way, takes off
a freefall into faith -
What is not understood is mostly feared
The story of greatness tells us
About how the world can be so unwelcoming
To you, and to anything
To be outside of the usual
That it actually perceives to be more true
And terrifyingly beautifulSo do not let the world
Push you into places
Where your light cannot be seen
Where your beauty can’t be shown
Where you feel you have to remain
Burying yourself in solid black soil
Hiding deep down mountainous terrainIgnorance loves only what seems known
So don’t worry about the world
And being feared as were the gods
Allow yourself to be found
In the grand liberty of madness
By a solitary wanderer
Resting on your burial mound -
Why do you believe
you need protection or a shield?
Truth is your only armour
A solar disc that spins untouched
targetless from arrows beyond reach.Only a Saint has the courage to slay
by a swift thrust of double edged blade
the hungry ghosts
of smallness’ false deceitPower meets self mastery
by inner knowing unopposed
where all is warmly laughed at
and armours obsolete. -
In the quiet and unsaidAll truth rests undisturbed
The silent songs of heavens
Whir in absence of the word
When all the noises dim
A language felt by senses
Speaks of love unheard
Heart strings tuning in accord
A silent satin hymn
-
Do not resist exhaling
Let things fail and fall apart
Allowing breaking to be done
Do not turn and overstep Gods plan
Fighting chaos empty handed
From the threshold where you standDo not try to fix and mend
Your cycle of completion
In the turning of the change
Of what was meant to end
Do not refuse the leaving
Of what is ready to departIn order to become again
Let loose of holding on
Give away all you can
And do not waste your heart
On being someone
You do not wish to love -
Not all roads are meant to be walked
Not all ways are meant to be explored
You were never meant to know
Allow yourself to be slowly moved
By the quiet in your soul
Gesturing you gently
To pursue a lovers court
Inviting you to join into
That sacred dance amidst
The familiar and the new -
Never visit the same lands twice
never go back to the same place
keep the fires burning relentlessly
stoking up the flames
gift yourself a bonfire
of all your ruins and remains
throw in all your dust and dented dreams
while all is set on high ablaze
stories of storms that wrecked your life
plans filled with travels never made
your collected piles of pictures
of lovers that left or left behind
the names of ones that wronged you
mentioned endlessly on repeat
times when no one came to rescue
you from the hoarding of your mind
burdened by stocks of souvenirs
leave all your questions of what if instead
ignite your fire and stir up the heat
walk away from your regret
choose another road from here
never go back to the same place again
because all has changed since then
and so have you my dear -
Life does not ask you to explain
about what wanders you have made
so in return cease asking
why every thing is happeningLet yourself pause in blank space
there are no reasons and no blame
in the realm of everlasting source
all is causeless and the sameNo answer stays around for long
another question will arise
in the rummage of your mind
exhausted of the seeking whyEntrust to mysteries unwind
in embrace of all undone
without motives or a destiny
You are always free to fly -
When whispers of the ancient tales foretold
Unravel and untie
The veil thins of what one beholds
Revealing that which can’t be seen
By closed hearts and closed mind's eye -
Once you see
You are the Weaver
Of your own veil
Everything becomes illumed -
You are not here to forget yourself
and copy paste what’s long been done
There is no honour is self sacrifice
and in postponing your own song
Go in to wild and unpaved roads
and learn to love your ways alone
Follow your deepest longing fiercely
that God has planted in your soul
For you’ll never find a home of your own
wandering outside of that seeds belonging
