Heart, tempestuous and wild Delights in the dance of contrast Although knowing it will not last Frolics about like a playful child Mother and Father join the play Name of the game is separation Hide and seek, before their union Foiled by heart that does so sway Mother coiled, fast asleep at root Waits for desires to be relinquished Thoughts fade, ego is vanquished She as kundalini, has time to reboot Journey’s long, from root to crown Erst fears and beliefs a blockage There yet remains instincts savage Feral lust addictive, yet to drown Getting past sacral, next is navel Power, domination and dark fear Envy, hatred, contempt in high gear Demons, dragons, of folklore fable Swadishtana and Manipura playoff Can Ida’s water calm Pingala’s fire Fuelled by our ego, nurturing desire An impasse until hearing love cough Heart centre both turbid and calm We may liken it to eye of the storm Place of rest, in bliss currents warm Sins cleansed by love’s healing balm Rising from earth and waters deep Having traversed life trial by fire Breath of air’s welcome, for we tire For into the void, we need to leap Material plane ends, all we hold real Twinkling stars scattered across space Hold promise of boundless divine grace Are we ready for the ineffable ethereal Although heart to throat a jump away Rainbow colour shifts from green to blue Cleansed in heart, fresh like morning dew Void’s our home where we choose to stay From jugular notch to the Adam’s apple Soul orientation determines meditation In timeless time distilled is our attention When manifests God’s surreal miracle Ascent upwards into the vast head ovoid Formless presence sans our lower mind Past knowing erased, beliefs left behind One with That oneness, by God buoyed Be we yet in form or the infinite universe It matters little for we meld with the stream Wisdom downloads endlessly then beam We dance with joy without need to rehearse Soma nectar flows, we see vibrationally Then comes about male-female balance When energies equalise, erect our stance Hirayangarbha splits in head enigmatically The seed having sprouted, begins descent Via Amrit nadi, back into the heart centre Divine union, fusion God Himself does mentor Since free will chose to grant love consent Soundless thunder, bliss ignition continual Then illumines root to crown central vein Baptised by Spirit, twice born, free from stain Each life breath is heightened bliss renewal Epilogue Shakti unites with Shiva as Ardhnarishwara Our form is transmuted thus from within When veils are lifted, bliss throbs on our skin As indivisible God essence we’re as Ishwara 28-February-2022
