Streets of solitude

let’s say it like it is
no one else can feel
zing of bliss magnetism 
that imparts zest and zeal

alone in midst of many
we share but none can pair
rapture within that rises
of consciousness self-aware

life as impulsed unfolds
we play our role as ordained 
yet from fears and desires
soul’s been long since unchained

we see through subterfuge
with a kindly eye
within each form we see
God’s presence draw nigh

vibrant in aloneness
as we are breathed day and night
boundaries blur, clear light dawns
betwixt bliss beat’s delight

both immanent and transcendent 
encased in feeble form 
how may we delineate 
our heart’s toroidal storm

You are so ascetic and hermit like, carrying bliss and God's peace in your body and soul. Unlike ordinary mortals, you don't seek company, but seek grace and fulfillment in 'vibrant aloneness' when boundaries blur and clear light dawns betwixt bliss beat’s delight." So beautiful a poem and so beautiful an experience. Stay blessed dear Seeker friend.

I’m no ascetic, Valsa, rather I enjoy the material gifts of life that have come my way but that said, yes, I’m not in the rat race to accumulate wealth and more or less remain in thought rested stillness. I was fortunate to imbibe bliss in permanence, which occurred by the spontaneous activation of the kundalini … it happens after a complicated process, which is guided by invisible adepts, we are just a receptor. I’ve written about this here and there but counsel that no one should attempt to force the process.
