Internalised Poems | Examples

Premium MemberZen mode

as yet haunted by dream images
anchoring consciousness in the mundane
in the waking state we dwell in heart
to vanquish our subconscious mind insane

empty of concepts, attention internalised
silence our default orientation 
nonchalant to ripples that rise and subside
we are poised in all time meditation

Premium MemberHow I met God

attention internalised
thought flow rested
my heart was at peace 
though earth life tested 

I became a witness
motionless in vast space 
doing nothing thus
I invoked God’s grace

fears and desires ebbed
bliss magnetism was activated
no demons then remained 
needing to be placated

one night in vibrant stillness 
debts of love were recalled 
seeing misdeeds of my past
I was repentant and appalled

at that moment God appeared
in light soft white yet bright
He erased past transgressions 
and said it is alright

God then gently held my hand
and said be joyous on this earth
live out your life span in peace
with heart bubbling in mirth

He revealed we too are as He
made in His image ~ living light
earth is a school to grow in wisdom
love taking us on a wingless flight

such was my encounter with God
He reveals Himself when it is time
however we always hear His voice
betwixt love’s bliss beat chime

vibrant yet detached 
from desires and outcomes 
we go through play of life in motion
softened attention internalised
radiating love, light and bliss

Premium MemberIn Simple Words

breath by breath
as our life renews 
in truth we stand
in God’s shoes

He dwells within
giving life to form
we acknowledge not
so fail to transform

mind-body awareness
feels separate from source
owing to this delusion
we employ use of force

now we do need the ego
in order to survive
but if we neglect soul
how will we thrive

ego lies in head
love pulsates in heart
thus unless both align
life quest cannot start

liberation is simple
false identity we don
transient and illusionary
whence shorn we’re reborn

we’d do well to repeat
a million times if need be
we’re soul and not body-mind
reaffirm daily until we see

fears and desires recede
we live a life internalised
engaging with life as ordained
until our true Self is realised

just as water seeks its level
if we become an empty shell
God’s love and light fills us
and then all is well

Premium MemberSilent Thunder

Divine Mother’s grace
Holds us in tender embrace 
Being God’s energy transmission
Felt within as rapturous bliss ignition 
That all ego veils of ignorance drop away
And attention internalised, we cease to sway

What happens then is this: transfixed in bliss
Ego identity recedes; we see truth as it is 
Our true self shines as God’s living light
Reinforced by bliss by day and night
That we assimilate it within form
As the epicentre of this storm

blissful in inner silence
thus appearing withdrawn
the monk is oft misunderstood
since his attention is internalised

yet noticing the world's response
from time to time he surfaces
mindfully gentling his touch
in nonchalant playfulness

Premium MemberAshtavakra Gita Verse 19:5

19.5
“Where is sleeping, dreaming, waking, 
or even the fourth state?
Where is fear?
I abide in the glory of Self”

Verse revisited on 09-June-2022

Timeless continuum of here, now, this
Peace rippleless, humming with bliss
Holds steady internalised attention
As ever present divine orientation 
Wherein heart thus, void-centric
Radiates loving intent concentric
Be it in waking or dreaming state
Magnetic bliss throbs within gyrate
Each life pulse embrace and release 
Flowing gently, like the morning breeze
Dreams within dreams do thus renew
Witnessing linear time flow continue
Aware that we’re breathed by God
Of cause, not effect, overawed
Witnessed from fulcrum of stillness 
Be it day or night in vibrant blissfulness

Premium MemberThe Trinity Within

Self-discovery, a path beauteous 
The table’s laid, everything’s ready made 
When aligned with voice of conscience righteous
Bliss fills us as a consciousness upgrade

Ensconced in rapture thus, by day and night
Our attention is soon internalised
Wisdom downloads follow, clear is our sight
In timeless time, God within’s realised

Love, wisdom and power to co-create
The threefold flame of Christ within us glows
Soul presence celebrates at heaven’s gate
There’s no doubt, for we’re in the boat God rows

Oh hermit, know that we’re he, who we seek
God in-dwells within ~ let’s take a sneak peek

Our attention’s internalised,
wherein nothing is weighed or sized.
That that is, is magnetic heat,
enigmatic, thus not apprised.

Essence of presence is upbeat,
dancing carefree, to the love beat.
By thus being, we so become,
mist of bliss, no one can defeat.

Within our heart, resounds God’s drum,
accompanied by a bliss hum,
igniting form, from head to toe;
each node, heaven’s sensorium.

All being one, we have no foe.
There are no seeds we need to sow.
All that’s manifest, is but God,
as each life breath, He does bestow.

Attention internalised, we just rest,
abiding in thought rested awareness,
looking at dream images, as life jest,
recognising underlying oneness,
flowing thus in joyous, tranquil stillness,
with no trace of fear or desire within,
mesmerised by bliss throbs upon our skin,
as this dance divine renews day and night,
heart embracing all as our kith and kin,
we, here and now, obtain spherical sight.

Tranquil acceptance of what is as is,
irrespective of outer circumstance,
ensconced always in the joyous bliss fizz,
recognising life as a divine dance,
we be in continuance of vibrance,
mindfully weeding out our lower mind,
free from ego cravings, that seek to bind,
attention internalised, poised yet still,
resting thought flow and memory rewind,
as bliss magnetism, all voids within fill.

Premium MemberIf Thine Eye Be Single

in the beginning, we may say
we dwelt in stupor of separation
awareness dulled, driven by desire
oblivious to the vibrancy of bliss elation

senses externalised, thoughts blocking surprise
somewhere we lost our childlike spontaneity
enmeshed thus in a web of our making
boon became bane, joy the fatality

upon reaching the point of exhaustion 
we froze flow of thought, entering stillness 
our attention internalised in the void of silence
we felt strange stirrings within of ineffable joyfulness 

stretching the time continuum to deepen feeling
we melded therein by softening attention
dormant nodes within awakened
purring in blissful joy elation

we assign to our bliss no label
as the energy divine stabilised within
central funnel from root to crown radiant
cave within heart renewing throb of bliss ignition 

the happening both fortuitous and miraculous
wherein our presence was but a receptor
marked not end but a new beginning 
unveiling unknown bliss vectors

with lower mind vaporised
oneness recognised as vibration 
sublime fragrance accompanying bliss
soft divine light white sporadic manifestation

Premium MemberWinter of Our Discontent

“Arise, oh hermit! Schumann‘s resonance is rising!
In silence and stillness, feel within bliss pulsating!”

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

If now be winter of our discontent,
it signals darkness will soon yield to light,
attention internalised, thus content,
fear of death transmuted to bliss delight,
reverberating within day and night.
This affirmation, not a prophesy,
rather, a here and now reality,
cognised no sooner we enter silence,
imbibing bliss in continuity:
rapturous in divine entwined parlance.

The Islanders

The Islanders


We live in an Island
Surrounded by water
Both murky and crystalline
In water we put our trust
To protect us 
From the outsiders
Our lives are internalised
We become the outsiders.
We are the Islanders!
Our imagination is pixied
Our dreams not fluid
or solid but shattered.
Our faces closed. 
This paradox is not what we desired.
We live in Diaspora in Dystopia!

Therefore the water lets us down
Again and again!
A bridge over it, we build
to reach out to the others
Embrace otherness
To embrace compassion
Afterall the word is the very epitome of the womb
From which we are born!
The healing begins in our core!

 No longer are we Islanders.
But we are the tamers of the water
The builders of the bridges!
The healers and the healed.

The Pedestal I Put You On

Within my heart of hearts there lies
  a place apart, enshrined for you,
secluded away from other eyes,
  a refuge out of view.
I visit each time I watch you pass,
  hide there so your gaze can't see
this admiration internalised
  within the very depths of me.
Herein a deeper sense of love,
  a structure sunk in flower petals,
encrusted with longing diamond smiles,
  constructed out of precious metals.
Its nature transcends the superficial
  skin of sex and cold desire,
beyond such mere transience
  there burns a different kind of fire.
Yet you may never know of this,
  and I must only dwell upon
the truth of whether you deserve
  the pedestal I put you on...
