Twice born we live on Thoughts rested, die cast, within the void vast, aliveness awake has nothing at stake. Peace that's thus imbibed cannot be described, in time stretched stillness; path to soul's wellness. Agendaless soul, blissful, vibrant, whole, mode - embrace, release, flows through life with ease. Bliss beats heart's joy lifts, our consciousness shifts, becoming love's flame, which mind cannot name. Once desires are shorn, here and now twice born, ego dies, we rise; in rapture, heart sighs. 26-November-2022

absolutely beautiful write. I see you saw the universe with in during meditation? I wonder how many others have had that experience. I was quite young at the time and it scared me so I opened my eyes to be grounded again. enjoyed..Nancy

The universe is within us, yes. We are the whole and also the crystallised organic form. As such, there is no paradox. Duality and contrast can only be felt in limited form, which we wish to experience. The problem arises when we are hypnotised into believing that the mind-body is all there is to us. Then meditation helps us remember who we really are, with God’s grace.
