Light that lights all lights“we look for that light eternal
that does not come and go
the screen upon which life plays
cognised in staid stillness slow” ~ Unseeking Seeker
I flow like silken ripples
through mirrored lakes,
a lotus sprouting from
mountain streams,
soaked in the saffron
warmth of summer’s flare,
jeweled in citrine pearls of purity.
Awaiting...

The Law of Spiral SpringsRobert Hooke caused quite a commotion
In the academic ocean
When in spite of his Gown
With a lady of the Town
He enjoyed simple harmonic motion
Not before had he seemed so spry
That nobody could deny
He’d a verve and a pep
And a spring in his step
As he...

If only you knewmelding with the shifting hues of a scarlet sunset
dissolving ego identity while playing with a child
taking in the breeze wafting through pine trees
invoking grace by making heart soft and mild
relinquishing cravings with nonchalant ease
oh worthy hermit, what is that awareness
innate vibrancy that does not come...

Holder of the FlameHolder of the flame of bliss awareness
Cognised by presence, in tranquil stillness
Each hue new, although generic code same
God is love; we may give Him any name
Filling voids within, with joy in fullness
Deluded is thought of separateness
Empathy births interconnectedness
We all are one,...

Secret LoveCaress of grace sublime, shows on our face,
of peace that surpasses understanding;
a jigsaw puzzle others cannot lace,
our aura both gentle and commanding.
It’s not that we don’t share but few can pair,
with the road map that leads to joyous bliss,
stemming from soul’s inner light, self-aware,
borne by...

Defying delineationWe are advised to show, not tell
but if the abstract be real,
to speak of when the ego fell,
requires us not to think but feel.
The light we see, when eye’s single,
may be pointed out to, not shown,
as when polarities mingle,
birthing rapture we alone own.
Silence holds cosmic...

Light that lights all lights
Have you ever seen a candle glow,
the one that is whiter than snow.
The special brightness it will show,
it can light up a room for all to see.
“we look for that light eternal
that does not come and go
the screen upon which life...

The Vaporised Selfpractice makes perfect, so let’s get to it
until we feel each nuance deep within
soft rhythm taking us to the summit
the table is laid and the lamp is lit
inviting us to silence ego din
practice makes perfect, so let’s get to it
playful forgiving heart and ready...

I Reminisce I MissI reminisce, I miss
the bliss continuum
when narrow thought
interrupts dynamic stillness
imagery memory brought
oft in serpentine spirals
rooted in and birthed by ego
being a bubble imaginary
yet intruding rudely
owing to blockages within
still in mind body resident
onto which images anchor
seeking my attention
hoping that I indulge
thereby granting the illusions
new lease...

Slipping Into Slumber‘Eat when hungry, sleep when sleepy’, adage,
simple enough, for a child innocent.
Why then with insomnia, war we wage?
Methinks, due to bubbling thoughts resident,
we stagnate, mired in ego sediment.
As both the prisoner and tormentor,
spectator, as well as the conjurer,
freedom lies by living in the present,
moment...

Thought of the DayEach soul journey is unique ~
Into which no one can peek
We may share but none can pair ~
Save those who are self-aware
Secrets hidden in plain sight ~

Breath of God
Breath of God
God’s life force moves through us,
cognised as breath flowing,
enabling mind-body.
Why for then do we dwell
in egoic thoughts shoddy?
God’s life force moves through us,
yet we feel incomplete,
feeling not bliss rapture,
deafened by thought flow din,
that lowers soul stature.
God’s life force moves through us,
that we...
