Gemini Garden, Silent One
“We are all petals of imperfection sharing the same sun” - Silent One
Let’s state in plain words, who we really are,
which most certainly is not the body-mind.
Floating rudderlessly, we’ve drifted afar
because head and heart are not with love aligned.
In truth we’re living light, shining like a star,
known not because we are gripped in ego’s bind.
Be this as it may, the map’s not the terrain,
so how may we by touch, this wisdom ingrain?
God’s grace both immediate and intimate,
is ever present if we choose to receive,
for which we must ensure desires do not bait.
In staid silence, soul asks ego to beg leave,
upon which we find ourselves at heaven’s gate
and then there remains no load we need to heave.
The false falls away, delusion disappears,
then in the vibrant bardo, God’s light appears!
