“The Dissolving Heart”
How many keys
played for seeds
bleeding a life
read, received
cast out
in the left field
planted in the heart
of karma to become
new life reflecting
inwards out to another
holding the echoing
music kept safe
still heard
and felt
for what it is
keys
and notes
found in the heart
played without
the score
separate
but never
apart
love opens
the closed,
the misunderstood
detached
freely
disengages to
all that was war
leaves it
where it belongs
in the past
dissolved.
no more.

“We behold what we are, and we are what we behold.”
The Bhagavad Gita
“The battlefield is a perfect backdrop, but the Gita’s subject is the war within, the struggle for self-mastery that every human being must wage if he or she is to emerge from life victorious. THE.” ‘
The Bhagavad Gita
“Perform all thy actions with mind concentrated on the Divine, renouncing attachment and looking upon success and failure with an equal eye. Spirituality implies equanimity.”
The Bhagavad Gita
“Asceticism is giving up selfish activities, as poets know, and the wise declare renunciation is giving up fruits of action. “
Krishna.The Bhagavad Gita
“When a person responds to the joys and sorrows of others as if they were his own, he has attained the highest state of spiritual union.”
The Bhagavad Gita
“I am Sama Veda among the Vedas; I am Indra among the Devas; I am the mind among the senses; I am the consciousness in all living beings.”
The Bhagavad Gita
“The law of karma states unequivocally that though we cannot see the connections, we can be sure that everything that happens to us, good and bad, originated once in something we did or thought. We ourselves are responsible for what happens to us, whether or not we can understand how. It follows that we can change what happens to us by changing ourselves; we can take our destiny into our own hands.”
Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa, The Bhagavad Gita
“The awakened sages call a person wise when all his undertakings are free from anxiety about results; all his selfish desires have been consumed in the fire of knowledge. The wise, ever satisfied, have abandoned all external supports. Their security is unaffected by the results of their action; even while acting, they really do nothing at all. Free from expectations and from all sense of possession, with mind and body firmly controlled by the Self, they do not incur sin by the performance of physical action. They live in freedom who have gone beyond the dualities of life. Competing with no one, they are alike in success and failure and content with whatever comes to them. They are free, without selfish attachments; their minds are fixed in knowledge. They perform all work in the spirit of service, and their karma is dissolved.”
Ved Vyasa, The Bhagavad Gita
“Seek refuge in the attitude of detachment and you will amass the wealth of spiritual awareness. Those who are motivated only by desire for the fruits of action are miserable, for they are constantly anxious about the results of what they do. When consciousness is unified, however, all vain anxiety is left behind. There is no cause for worry, whether things go well or ill.”
Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa, The Bhagavad Gita
“A gift is pure when it is given from the heart to the right person at the right time and at the right place, and when we expect nothing in return”
The Bhagavad Gita
