Salutations to The Divine Mother
Who envelopes us in a bliss shower
God’s divine essence aglow in our heart
Innate aliveness enabling each breath to start
Effulgence of a thousand suns dispelling darkness 
Entwining our mind-body to the That oneness
Moment to moment in a joy continuum 
There remaining no...

what avail, awareness without freedom
why shines not, light of our luminescence 
our heart yearns for more, we must overcome 

we feel the rhythm within our bosom 
joy experience in fleeting transience 
what avail, awareness without freedom

each sensorium wishes to blossom
not part quintessence but full effulgence...

enabled now for co-creation
our free will chooses
either blissful joy or agitation

within vibrant void of stillness 
ego thoughts rested
that that is is bliss in fullness

clues abound we see them not
as each breath renews
fickle attention in fears fraught

we shine bright as love and light
bewildered by shadows
delusion veiling...

“joy or pain, neither seek nor resist
vaporise to become, a bliss mist”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Turbid storms in realm of duality
Inevitably will bring to us pain
Fearful contractions mar serenity
Unless fickle ego, to rest is lain 

Pain bemuses whilst joy hypnotises
Either way unstable is our fulcrum 
Truth being life is...

Premium Member Effervescence
A surreal, blissful calm engulfs form
Of deep peace emanating from within
Magnetism sublime, neither cool nor warm
Benign burn playing gently on our skin

Bliss mists both transcendent and immanent
Enliven by transmutation heart’s core
Ignition renewal thus permanent
Celebrates is-ness like never before

No labels may assign how love does pine
Rapturous...

Equilibrium
Supreme Energy, fluid nothing, effervescent  Om:
Structured universal life, matter’s unfolding cosmos;
Exhilarating evolution, expanding along the physicals.
Nirvana, fusion of the body, mind and soul in equipoise.  

The body stays not, creation  demolish not.
Material consciousness oscillates, Atma explores.     
It is...

Gone
I want gone the silence of injustice
The tarnation we insufferably carry along

I want gone the vile of ignorance 
The dire ism we obstreperously preach 

I want gone the cold night of boredom 
The beauty of poetry it stole

I want gone YOU 
The residuum of smile...

Death of a loved one

Fifty-five years! More or less! I did not know, then,
How, to your adieu, o mother, I said Amen;
Later, like the ache of an amputated limb,
Existence, like a gloom-glaring jail cell, grew grim...!

I know, from the frail earthen pitcher of physique,
Your soul,...

Imagination
Hence, I plunge into imagination to encumber suffering,
Athwart are the horizons wider than my pride,
I, one but three, such a symbolic trope, the Trinity,
A gorgeous exaltation gorged into voracity, itself.

The good is near me! The evil - inside of me!

The principles of distortion underlay the...

Premium Member Power of Silence
Here we are and here we begin 
in silence, going in within
Images bemuse, so we be still
feeling bliss tingle on our skin

Voids within form begin to fill
Nectar divine does overspill
We imbibe bliss by magnetism 
shaped gently, upon the anvil

Head and heart meld in body prism
Vibrant...

20.8
“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...

“Is each breath devoid of ego residuum?
Does love colour our aliveness continuum?”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Each
moment
is poignant,
in pregnant pause,
seeking our embrace,
suffused in tenderness,
infused with childlike wonder,
to fill the void with love and light.
Oh hermit! Let our glance be gentle,
that the recipient bursts forth in dance!

Moment to moment, all moments...

Toyed by mind
We build a script
Then hang on to it
Gluey identity bind

Discarding all belief
Simply thoughts rest
No load on our chest
Soul gets some relief

Vibrant emptiness 
There is no seeking
Feel soma seeping
Rapturous blissfulness 

Immediate and intimate 
Cognised in stillness 
Pristinity of aliveness
To bliss beats gyrate

Life like images...
