Ambedo Amigo

Shifting into silence, letting go of lower mind Hitherto ego bound attention seems unfettered We wonder what delightful pastures it will find Intuitively going where rose petals are scattered Meditational attention, poised without anticipation Yet retains in the background a hum magnetic Mind body hollowed out in a mode of cessation Osmotically imbibes subtle vibrations eclectic Guna Rajas rested, the polarities latent resident Are Tamas as inertia and Sattva pristine stillness The universe responds as of our innate sentiment Joy or melancholy as chosen by consciousness Cognising images, we draw in memory imagery An instinctive reflex mind body based response Thus unless the ambedo arises from pleasantry We may be entrapped in emotions left to chance As we be so we are and as we are we do become Thus it is not in the melody or vacuity per say Rather upon aligning inner and outer with love one Do we shift to the centre, thereby ceasing to sway What we are searching for not a fixed coordinate An essence of presence whose fragrance elusive It is only in resistanceless flow of stillness sedate In connecting, not grasping, we feel a calm pensive Shift from ego separateness to interconnectedness Wherein we recognise unity in seeming diversity Being but the beginning of vibrant spacial wholeness Until we directly see the deep underlying reality What then is ambedo but a letting go off of all bondage Our eternal awareness choosing to reclaim divinity With identity vaporised, there being no fear to assuage As one with oneness we throb with bliss in continuity 29-October-2020
