Notes About The Poem


Symbol of the crown chakra,  the Sahasrara, gateway to universal consciousness 

__________________________________________________________________________

A Child Recalls

By my enabled senses five, attention externalised, I beheld the magical world of myriad objects, reflecting their luminous auras. As I exhaled, the world disappeared and through my open fontanel correspondent to the crown chakra, I entwined with universal consciousness, melding with God’s blissful domain of boundless love and soft white light. My subtle body felt God in-dwelling all forms, breathing His life force by His sublime pranic breath, magnetically energising each being by Holy Spirit. Then sadly, as my body aged, to my dismay, the fontanel closed, thus severing the divine connection. I now feel incomplete.

dreams hold forth promise
cajoling us to let go~
for God is within

Your, "A child recalls" is a creative write. A child does remember many things about their young life. Have a great/blessed~~day/weekend................

Thanks Paula. This alludes to our connection with universal consciousness, which we were born with, slowly blurring as fulcrum shifted from heart to head. Meditation reverses the process, shifting back to the spiritual heart centre.
