The third eye, guru chakra and crown merge,
becoming as it were, a seamless whole,
a band of steel, from which bliss does emerge,
mirroring God’s light, which scriptures extol.
Bliss drips from third eye right down to the root,
completing this the grid that loops our form
and as all vertebrae in spine reboot,
the only doing we do is conform.
Totality of Self is now one node
and so in truth there remains no centre,
our heart’s acknowledgement to God an ode,
joyous beholding bliss horses canter.
There is nothing to say, much less to do ~
We become the flame as bliss beats renew
Three days ago, my ophthalmologist performed my first cataract operation,
All went well I must say,
But I am seeing double today,
So please everybody who I have answered with persistent determination,
Excuse my typing, incorrect spelling and my intense unrelenting frustration.
Sky merging with earth
An illusion called horizon
Life merging with pleasures
An illusion called success
Square meals and a cozy sleep
Minus craving for endless keep
Loss and gain howsoever deep
Contentment is a joy with sweep
When one amasses the heap
Lure for more and more beep
Fears, alarms and qualms creep
Worries, not the serenity steep
Life is lovely and precious, not cheap
Delight and fulfillment one may reap
With tranquility and calm, not the leap
Life’s blue waters are not ankle-deep
Caged in feeble form,
rainbow spectrum is too small,
to express my love for you.
Let our souls commune,
osmotically mingling,
lighting the lamp of pure bliss.
I enter you as a cloud of unknowing.
Mystery slips through willing flesh,
a single pulse of amazement
beats the one heart.
You will never be mine
for we are now beyond
being kept,
we are the thoughtless thought,
the mindless mind, that which surfaces,
from beneath the thin skin of existence.
We unknowing clouds,
far beyond any maladroit understanding
of sex.
Evening merging Night
Touching my birthplace,
River Holy Ganges flows in delight.
After sunset, me standing on stream strand
watching tranquil twilight
and evening merging night.
Before fading, depressed diffused rays
infusing vermilion on pellucid sky.
Parrots perched on nests.
Framing flowery garland, egrets flying by.
My forgotten love whispers to sigh.

The merging
Presence that propels light,
enables love to graze
in pastures of delight,
renewing throb of bliss
thus, every day and night.
Presence that propels light,
master of space and time,
manifests a dream world,
to feel it’s own bliss chime,
as flag of love’s unfurled.
Presence that propels light,
beyond all opposites,
breathes in each electron,
seen as ripples in space,
welcoming each newborn.
Presence that propels light,
pours Itself into us,
joyous feeling heart’s surge,
becoming as He,
the day soul and God merge.

head-heart agree
God’s light seeing
thus being free

My heart is in your soul
My soul rises in your spirit
Our spirits merge

To feed off rain
Then live on pearls again.
Silent echoes melting,
Whispered lips releasing
Music’s primal song.
Silence.
Punching holes within
The fabric of our lives.
Transparent skin,
Translucent words.
Nova Stars,
Like we,
Explode with Love.
A river of light moves along the top of a dark mountain range
Beneath light silver clouds, floating in the sky this winter day
The cold air is still, as it freezes the snow just recently fallen
Leaving white tipped tree branches reaching outward in mid air
Over millions of snowflakes spread all over the frozen ground
Like millions of positive sparkling thoughts, waiting to be found
As the day moves forward, the silver clouds darken to gray
It will not be long before more snow will fall that is on the way
Another pristine layer of a blanket will be spread to see
Where the beauty of the sky, meets the ground in front of me

Merging the trinity
By: Erastus “Popyeny” Shipuleni
@December 2020
Not always do I get what I want,
Neither does my request materialise as requested,
Nor desire implemented as desired.
Do I know why these occur?
Cause of denial,
Over power by pride &
Refusal for admission.
Road to fruitful life.
Admit the creator,
Merge the trinity, (Mind, soul & body),
Self-acceptance, forgiveness & release.
Be present & act.
Accept & be as created.
Manage within my reach.
“thought rested awareness manifests our presence
blissful and aglow, in divine entwined parlance”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The witness stance interferes with experience
Object, being so observed, becomes self conscious
Spontaneity marred, as also innocence
Recognising then that each touch is sensuous
Let the trance like dance be playful exuberance
Singular consciousness gyrations beauteous
Attention softened, flowing then in nonchalance
Essence of presence in joyfulness celebrates
Aspect allowing savouring each bliss nuance
Ego dropped away; no agenda on our plate
The taste of life partaken in stillness sedate

(syllabic Terza Rima)
to bend
in surrender
ego yielding
to the soul
within our heart
both are us
with this difference
ego identity
soul universality
ego grasping
soul connecting
flowing
versus stagnating
seeking
versus being
the way
simple
we melt
to merge
ego with self
the gross falls away
we cease to sway
abiding in silence
of innate innocence
16-November-2020
Moment to moment
The moments entwined
Sensing the current
We plunge deep therein
Meditation trance
Having melted
We become that
Which has no name
Pure and unstained
Flowering
Transcending
Becoming
The mist
Pristine
Bliss
