Gods Guiding Hand

“If you would merge with oneness, vaporise!
Be a child again, welcoming surprise!”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Immersed in limitation 
Shrouded in darkness
Feeling thus confined
We flounder about
Hither and thither
Searching for joy 
Bliss in permanence 
Yet our heart senses
That we are far more
Than this mind body
With senses externalised 
Lower mind fragmenting
Trying to piece together
The puzzle of life
Without success

Thus in delusion 
Hypnotised by illusions
We strive and struggle
Hoping for a miracle 
Which instantly appears 
No sooner we ask
As voice of conscience 
Echoing Gods will
Which has but one vibration 
Love unconditional

Here begins a struggle
Between head and heart
Between ego and the divine
Former seizing, grasping
The latter, sharing, connecting
We recognise 
That the voice of truth
Is that of conscience 
Yet, we fear to lose
Fleeting images garnered
Or which we yearn for
Since we are clinging
To ego mind body
Stagnating in ferality
Trapped by our own hand
Unable to escape

It is then
That God in His compassion
Extends us a hand
Showing us the clear light
Of immutable truth eternal
By posing challenges
By signalling the futility 
Of chasing a mirage
Illusionary thought forms
Which is what
All manifestations are

Thus when so graced
We begin to look inwards
In silence and stillness 
Thought rested awareness
Doing nothing
Simply resting
Poised in the void
Of no-thingness
Desireless
Fearless
Detached
Nonchalant 
Unexpectant 

In timeless time
In as ordained
Attention is softened
Thoughts are quietened
Ego cravings recede
The external fades
As we get to
Vibrant emptiness 

Thus we are
Thus we remain
For as long as it takes
Toxins within cleansed
Our earth life vessel
This mind body
Is readied
To receive the elixir
The magnetic impulse
Of Gods bountiful love
In boundless measure

The paths are many
We know them not
For we are not the doer
God alone is the mover
In childlike trust
Aspect allowing
We imbibe the bliss
Scintillating 

~~~~~~~

He is that who may not be named
We too are as He, oh hermit
Within heart as the turret
Our divinity unstained
