with heart the root and head as the flower
our soul presence from the vast void looks in
as dew drops of bliss bestowed by Divine Mother’s kiss
cause at our core rapture ignition to begin
tempestuous yet tender is the caress divine
ethereal magnetism grazing feeble form
a slow seduction for which we pine
surrendering to this benign bliss storm
angelic butterflies perch on our head ovoid
partaking of soma nectar flowing through our veins
sacred pollination whence delusion is destroyed
allowing us to gently free soul from ego’s chains
such are divine secrets hidden in plain sight
transformative is God’s kiss which does so empower
internalising attention that we metamorphose
with heart the root and head as the flower

There are not one but too many opinions and views.
Not promoting self-growth, but more what you'll lose.
An imagined past of wayward direction.
Now understood through intimate reflection.
Sought after days of laughter and vitality.
Produced by a substance to the pending reality.
Waking up resentful, with dignity scorned.
Wishing you picked up when your conscience telephoned.
Remorse rears its head in numerous ways.
Mainly anxiety-driven for hours and days.
Self-deprecation then societal acceptance.
To atone and excuse our own self-neglectance.
Internalising the notion 'it's just what we do'.
Realising they know a version, non-existent, of you.
They look for that person they created and yearned.
But what was constructed and taught can then be unlearned.

Early days of childhood were carefree
Our joyous centred presence frolicked in play
Then we grew up and bound ourself to a mind tree
Tail began wagging the dog when desires held sway
A self-centred stance made our heart contract
In the labyrinth of life, we had lost our way
The joy heart sought, we clearly lacked
So one day we decided to change our routine
Internalising attention and forging with love a pact
Dwelling oft in silence, we regained our soul’s sheen
Bliss magnetism filled us as soundless thunder
Our sinful heart was now pure and clean
Deeming all souls one and none asunder
In thought rested awareness we were at peace
Regaining lost pristine innocence, a magical wonder
Life is a gift from God, we’ve taken on a short lease ~
Be assured on surrender, our inner joy will increase

Gentle eye, mellow heart, love outpouring
Our void like presence, spacial and vibrant
Magnetic bliss currents, enlivening
In stillness, to each nuance, sentient
At first stupor interrupts staid silence
Over time, silence displaces stupor
Assigning thus, innocence preference
Signalling consciousness fulcrum stabler
Upon internalising attention
Within the domain of our heart, spacial
Our divine connect prioritisation
Reveals blissful hues of Gods miracles
The pathless path; journey without movement
Vibrational ascent, in contentment

Upon internalising attention
The amplitude of oscillations slow
We sense an osmotic percolation
A fragrance divine, making our heart glow
As radiance of magnetism heightens
Combined with elixir of vibhuti
Our auric field, magically brightens
Essence of presence in serenity
Mind body vessel, becomes a temple
Our inner sentience blends in fusion
Aspect of oneness, shaped on the mantle
Bliss continuum orientation
Moment to moment, all moments entwined
Joy epitome, no meaning assigned

Looking inwards, in firm transformation
Simply, internalising attention
Moment to moment, all moments entwined
Dwelling in the here and now, as assigned
Being but God search prioritisation
Ego vaporised, mind in cessation
No doer here, in this meditation
Thoughts are rested; nothing to be divined
Looking inwards
Void of stillness, chooses bliss elation
Our innate, flowing orientation
Lower mind to restful slumber consigned
Child like innocence, here and now is primed
Paravritti is our transmutation
Looking inwards

Fear
of death
envelopes
all other fears;
annihilation
of who we think we are,
as in a separate self.
This delusion, our suffering;
identification with body,
though knowing that it is ephemeral.
Upon internalising attention,
in thought vaporised meditation,
we connect with the universe.
Our consciousness shifts gently,
reveals divinity,
being we ourself
hidden within;
eternal,
pristine,
pure!

Upon internalising attention
Significance of external recedes
Divine connect our prioritisation
In totality: thought and word and deed.
Ego weakens as we no longer feed
Low feral urgings and cravings transient.
Child within awakes in joy innocent,
Living out life in spontaneity,
Nestled in bliss, our native element
Is-ness of being-ness thus permanent.

Observational quietude centreless
yet immersed in attention quanta
each packet of trance upon release
stretches void of silence continuità
As internalising attention in stillness
is distilled as our default orientation
stagnative fears and desires recede
throb of bliss our flowing meditation
Innate affinity choosing prioritisation
the potential desire becoming kinetic
manifesting reality as ourself chosen
pull of void alone bliss pulse eclectic
Gradually thus recalibrating our core
resonating with divine omnipresence
mind body identity shifts in alignment
becoming one with the bliss essence

Even as the heart keeps on ticking
and breath by grace gently flowing
let us check if our reflex orientation
is in resonation with love pulsation
in an unbroken continuation
