Best Cognises Poems
Blue Is a Pluvious ColorHe said
remember me by the shape of my laugh
but I rarely saw a smile
climbing upon his image
left with no choice than
wrap those rare moments
seized with Polaroid seconds
I'm ordering them not to wear blue faces
as that was the only color he didn't want to...

LuminosityMoment by moment, we amble along
Nonchalant to life, as it may unfold
As we breeze thus, singing our own love song
Wondrous unfoldments within we behold
Vaporised presence has nothing it seeks
Present in the continuum vibrant
Bliss rapturous osmotically seeps
To each nuance felt, we are sentient
Mindful eye cognises divine...

Mindful EyeEgo as in-form awareness
Enables us to feel alive
However faulty perception
Distances us from God’s bliss hive
Mindful eye cognises each pulse
Both sensory and egoic thought
Viewing them with staid nonchalance
For our blissful soul is self-taught
What the mind-body combine feels
We neither renounce nor embrace
Being but learning for our...

Ashtavakra Gita Verse 20:820.8
“Where is the knower?
Where is knowing?
Where is the known,
or knowledge itself?
Where is anything?
Where is nothing?
I am pure Awareness”
Verse revisited on 27-November-2022
Standing in, within yet apart from the template of space-time
Beyond all phenomenal worlds, resides consciousness sublime
Positioned at a centreless fulcrum, devoid of any...

What Is Your Preference
Buddhist view on aversion and desire,
cognises oscillations between them,
thereby sidestepping consequence dire,
nipping thorns and flowers, before they stem,
equal in dark and star of Bethlehem.
Cessation by negation, age old ways,
far cry from the tantric, who to joy sways,
dancing at all times in celebration,
imbibing within bliss, that...

Ashtavakra Gita Verses 16:7 To 16:8
16.7
“As long as there is desire--
which is the absence of discrimination--
there will be attachment and non-attachment
This is the cause of the world”
16.8
“Indulgence creates attachment
Aversion creates abstinence
Like a child, the sage is free of both
and thus lives on as a child”
Desire being a pull
But...

What Is Realout of the frying pan, we plunge into the fire
succumbing thus to ego spawned desire
ephemeral objects, our ego aspires
where are we headed, oh hermit
our deluded cravings have no merit
fallen from grace, head and heart split
bewildered we are, amidst myriad external illusions
blown away like a leaf,...

Touched by Holy SpiritBeholding objects
And space that holds them
Polarities shift
Inner sentience
Cognises soul’s light
A strange fragrance
Of love pervades
Organic form
Which we ensoul
As we taste
Bliss nectar
Joy fills heart
God’s gong
Resounds
Grace...

Play of DelightPlay of delight, in each touch sensory
Imbibed in slow motion, sedentary
Caring mindfulness grasps it byte by byte
Merging to feel in fullness, lows and heights
In joyous dance, nonchalant and carefree
As we let go of, to get to, gently
No consciousness of body bond weary
Pristine awareness, cognises...

ConvergenceChoosing to flow
In stillness slow
Bonds untied
Energy field unified
Bliss does overspill
Spacial calm tranquil
Cognisance of presence
To inner sentience
In stillness does feel
Bliss in full appeal
Thus at ease
Duality does cease
Pulse within stillness
Radiance in fullness
Agendaless innocence
Cognises convergence
Kinetic and potential
As life hum radial
Reception of...

Wrist ChakrasA sudden flicker of space
Saw inpouring of grace
Activating both wrists
There is no mistake
Since we were awake
Endless are divine trysts
We catalogue this event
Of boons heaven sent
For record keeping
Mindful eye cognises
How magnetism rises
Within our form leaping...

Bravo
Mindful eye
Cognises
Fickle mind
Porous
Misaligned
Stuporous
Blown away
By thought forms
Like a leaf
Having fallen
Now at the mercy
Of the fierce winds
That abound
We celebrate
This delusion
Offering to God
The experience
Of limitation
In this lucid dream
Of earth life
Seemingly real
Hijacked by ego
Bubble of illusion
Which lives on
As long as
We feed it

Message SimpleMessage simple; love is Gods miracle
Innate effulgence of pristine presence
Continual is its subtle signal
Innocence cognises voice of conscience
Tranquil blissful calm, our souls quintessence
Heart our abode, where we remain joyful
Wherein we bask in self-luminescence
Message simple; love is Gods miracle
Current ethereal, caress...

Journey Without Movement“flowing like the breeze
with nonchalant ease”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Centred in the void
Connected everywhere
The void omnipresent
Yet anchored nowhere
Identity melted
Each throb a surprise
Presence in innocence
Cognises bliss rise
Thought rested stillness
There is no one here
Save aliveness innate
Awareness self aware
With doer vaporised
No aspect seeking
One with oneness
This form scintillating

Vicarious Knowing To No AvailDebates futile for each soul chooses it’s path
Doing what heart likes
Until making each breath, a Holy Sabbath
Thunderous bliss spikes
Fears and desires dykes
Wisdom of the scriptures, words etched in stone
Tested time and again
Yet each of us must tread the path alone
Feeling both joy and pain
Slowly cleansing...
