A Diamond In the Rough

It is the spirit that so graciously gives us peace and keeps us inspired and optimistic during this amazing life. Let no one talk down to you or degrade you which in many cases, cuts like a knife. Where malace, envy and hatred abide, make a concerted effort to bring forth and inject love. Where there is pain bring empathy into the atmosphere and where there is wickedness, show righteousness from above. Slumbering within all off humanity lies magnificent skills, untapped powers and amazing ideas, all emanating from pure thought. Open your mind to a new reality, one that includes a perfect mind, a strong body and benevolent spirit which the school systems have never taught. The cultivation of inner awareness is simply a state of liberation, a state of transendence. As life unfolds as the peddles of a rose, it reveals a glimmering translucent diamond, a clearing of the soul after repentance.

Yes Wayne there are wise words here. Is transcendence the same as meditation ? If so I already practice it. But Peddles of a rose confuse me sweet Wayne, I know of Petals of a rose only. Anyway I really enjoyed your poem.

My dear friend, meditation is the path to transcendence. Being born again doesn't mean being sprinkled with water on the body or being dumped in a pool. One is born again each time you raise your consciousness to higher levels of dimensions and meditation is the path to higher vibrations. May you and yours be blessed
