Breathe Stars

Dare to live! Stop insisting on chasing after death. Stop trying to die! Quit the grand delusion. You shall never die! Grow your wings and fly to the mountaintop of your world. Breathe stars. Bravely go alone. Only you can do this. Regularly in your day–exercise conviction, visualize. Take in golden, fibrous threads of starlight, of sunlight. Take them in through the nostrils. This is nothing less than soul’s power-fuel. Inhale slowly and experience the gentle music of love’s fire, as flames would pull up a chimney stack, up pipes of ovens. Faith builds with such breath practice. Greed cooked away. Anger melting. Ignorance surrendering to ways of knowing. Transformations to flowers. To gratitude. To generosities. Prepare that your purpose shall speak to you. Breathe starlight. Are you surprised that you feel no heat? Your unique timelessness awaits your recognition.
