Desireless Poems | Examples

Premium Member birth and death

Self in singularity 
lustrous and self-existent
polarises itself
to feel contrast
in fierce winds of duality 

a form is shaped
from the elements 
propelled by breath of God
mind and intellect 
with bliss rooted in heart

upon death Self exists form
the five sheaths dissolve
then if soul is desireless 
it too reunites in the Self
wherefrom it arose

however if soul has desires
that desires be fulfilled
it reincarnates again and again
until heart becomes quiescent 
whence soul’s eye becomes single

Premium Member Thought of the day

as of heart’s desire
a thought spiral is born
designed to manifest a form
with which our ego plays
but if we be desireless 
the illusion crumbles

Premium Member Zen Mode

relativity
evokes response
heart yet equanimous 

the witness is desireless 
in, within but not of
dance of illusions

Premium Member Ceasing Striving

Ceasing striving, poised in the void
We play out our life role
Fearless, desireless, by love buoyed
Bliss throbs make us feel whole

Journey without movement 
In quiet contentment 
Love’s our sole sentiment

Joy reviving
Ceasing striving

Premium Member Be To Become

Choose
with care
oh hermit,
resonation
reflecting desire,
discerning the impulse
arising from mind-body,
versus the divine sublime pulse,
for which head must first meld with the heart,
whereupon we stand erect, love aligned.

Abiding in thought rested awareness,
our body becomes a receptor 
magnetised by bliss in fullness,
thus in but not of the world,
zestful yet desireless,
the self transmuted,
as love and light,
doing as
God does
will.

Premium Member All Is One

One is in all; each of many in one
Underlying truth known, when we dissolve
Pure of heart, in Gods domain are welcome
One is in all; each of many in one
We are that which sages seek to become
Desireless and love enabled, we evolve
One is in all; each of many in one
Underlying truth known, when we dissolve

Premium Member Only If

If
only
we be still,
embracing life,
as it does unfold,
without narrow craving,
thus fearless and desireless,
then, as staid witness to ourself,
we are within but not in the world,
joyous mist of bliss, free and unfettered.

There then thus, no doing, that need be done,
save slowly shedding off old thought forms
rooted in ego borne cravings,
which seek to demonise us,
shrouding us in darkness,
even though the light
within us shines
in the cave
of our
heart.

witnessing dream images rise and subside 
within hidden passageways of mind now surfacing
nonchalant eye smiles enjoying the joy ride

mindful presence celebrating aliveness glides
in and out of hearts desires now manifesting
witnessing dream images rise and subside 

ego borne cravings of lower mind take us aside
beseeching our indulgence amidst illusions spiralling
nonchalant eye smiles enjoying the joy ride

mode non-judgmental, no thought we deride
as we embrace and release without stagnating
witnessing dream images rise and subside 

fearless and desireless, God inside, divine beside
lower mind vaporised, gently soul thus flowing
nonchalant eye smiles enjoying the joy ride

vibrant emptiness bliss vivified, minds not low tide
all destined doings done although we do nothing 
witnessing dream images rise and subside 
nonchalant eye smiles enjoying the joy ride

What Is Happiness

We all seek happiness
But what is happiness have you ever pondered?

When our senses are gratified
We experience happiness

At the moment when we are happy
Mind is satiated.

This means absence of desires
contentment
satiation 
gives happiness

If we are desireless, thoughtless
we would become eternally happy

Premium Member Rest Oh Hermit

Rest, oh hermit, in the void of silence
Feel the tease, of divine entwined parlance 
Love embraces all, never judging merit
Desireless and fearless, standing erect
Live a play, not ego driven project

Let us rekindle childlike innocence 
Our presence centred, living in balance 
Cravings of ego let us now eject
Rest, oh hermit

In stillness we hear, voice of our conscience 
With universal mind, in resonance 
Imbibing soma nectar, bliss emits
Know that path of love is always correct
God connect yearning, our sole dalliance
Rest, oh hermit

Premium Member Walk the Talk

Choosing emptiness
As way of living
That divine love fills
Hollow voids within
We drop all seeking

Desireless self
Vibrant with bliss
Agendaless
Exuberant

We melt in
Joy current
In our heart

Lower
Urges

Fade

Premium Member What Comes and Goes

What comes and goes, holds for us no allure
Play of lower mind, awareness endures
Positioned desireless, in stillness slow
Radiant luminosity aglow
Self existent, unbound, vibrant and pure

Ego borne desires seeking an encore
Blown away like a leaf, always unsure
Myriad illusions, merely shadows
What comes and goes

In timeless time, desires surface no more
Allowing then, bliss currents to inpour
In alignment, mind body too, mellow
Fragrance of love divine, gently follows
Ego vaporised; no one keeping score
What comes and goes

Premium Member Desireless Love

Love
a thirst 
desireless,
burning yearning,
love in love with love,
to dance and celebrate,
moment to moment entwined,
in slow motion, teasing caress,
embrace, hold and release renewal,
self existent, vibrant consciousness play.

Love displays beauteous hues in colour,
bubbling joy and empathy for all,
in non-judging, ready embrace,
ascending to compassion,
radiating pure bliss,
childlike purity,
joy pulsating,
at all times;
divine 
bliss.

Premium Member Dream World

The dreamer dreams, becoming the object
How may the object awake as subject
Unreal object is but a thought beam
Our desire impels thought as a life stream
Bubble bursts when the object does not react 

Cessation the way to exit this net
Desireless entity, its course corrects
Void like space and ungraspable like steam
The dreamer dreams

Ego fictional does urges direct
Entrapping attention to deeds suspect
Hypnotic bind from which we cannot wean
Vaporisation alone reclaims sheen
Object vanishes, our stance then erect
The dreamer dreams

Premium Member Desireless Yearning

Mind body in spacial, tranquil calm
Enlivened by a blissfully purring heart
Joyous peace in the eye of each storm
As rapture ignition each moment restarts

There is in this play, no doing being done
Save choosing to be in love alignment 
Aglow in the heart, our spiritual sun
Mindfully aware in contentment 

Seeking replaced by yearning
In as relinquishing all ego doership
Resonating for with divine connecting 
Acceptance in surrender being our worship
