Premium MemberThe polarity secret

Polarities

Are appearances of 2..

Perspective and words

Opposites and  boundaries

Always accomplices..

Yet that secret: Polarities

Are not 2...

Premium MemberThe polarity story

Polarity

The polarity story

Of sameness

And difference..

On page 1

(The only page):

The difference illusion

Pops up when

Difference is known

As difference...

Premium MemberVoid of polarity exchange -ITQ

Melding with sunset’s fading light
Before the day turned into night
Magnetism rose, heightened delight
I drew in God’s grace, byte by byte

The happenstance was simply this 
From head to toe, I felt pure bliss
Caress of Divine Mother’s kiss
Rapture leaving nothing amiss

Void of polarity exchange 
Oft gives birth to soul stirrings strange
Enhancing vibrational range
Signalling it’s time for a change

Lamp of love’s lit in cave of heart
Feel therein bliss ignition start

Premium MemberAcid and Alkali Dreams

(Dark Pool of Light, 2011 original oil)

Acid and Alkali Dreams

Two sides 
Of the same coin 
Through different filters
Day and night
Pure and adulterated
Sweet and sour
Slippery and sharp
Regular and extra-ordinary
Working together
To keep the balance
By keeping us always
A little off 

Neither this nor that
Always some doubt
On the spectrum of possibility
Dancing with the Moonlit Knight
This bittersweet
Specter
Of day

Premium MemberThe Polarity Tree--

The polarity tree..

Another label and story

But what is there without 

Labels and stories..

It is a pine tree with

Nothing atop and a

Wide flaring skirt below..

Nothing and everything..

Sameness up and down:

Nothing appears as

The branches and needles..

Enter the characters the

Individual needles

Multiplicities increasing

As Nothing seems to recede..

Yet Nothing does not recede

Only the needles seem to move

And live and die.. 

Sparseness and denseness

Higher and lower

That's a continuing story...

Reverse Polarity

Sometimes, what the mind desires 
Is not what the body aspires 
Sometimes, what the body wants 
Is not what the mind hunts

Elements that are strong 
Are not always meant to belong 
For, the strong are meant for the weak 
And the hopeful to the bleak 

Opposite poles of the universe 
Meant to function together in reverse 
For, futile is positive 
If there is no negative 

There are those who always dream 
There are those who always scream 
But balance is necessary 
To conquer disharmony

Reverse Polarity

Direct, straight, and true,
to the sun the crow doth fly to you.
High above the event horizon,
on Icarus currents, his outstretched wings fly on,
and in the heat of his passion, only to suffer some fowl doom.

Alternating her course, the leviathan swam,
not nearly as ancient as the great “I Am.”
Deep beneath the bluest of blue oceans,
she glides to and fro in a sinusoidal motion,
and to her calf, she shares her devotion, to preserving the secrets of the land.

As the fulcrum of awareness shifts, soul don't go adrift
Affirmation: We are more than body & mind connection 
Let us leave all attachments behind and vaporize,
like space.  Mesh with the sun, recognize that we are One.

Like a caterpillar at the beginning stages of life 
the egg, the larva (caterpillar), the pupa (chrysalis or cocoon) and the adult
we are solid matter at birth, 
Our souls remain in a cocoon stage until we decide 
to explore its fibrous non-matter lignon.
Anima is to our souls what the cocoon is to the chrysalis.  
A thick protection goes over our souls and the only way 
to get it to be a viable spirit, is to use breath and 
MEDITATION as our key life chi.
We may not be butterflies, but we have our very own 
pupation pitfalls, we are human having a 
human experience, with a spirit that wants to be free 
to fly. 
When we respect our souls and give them proper nourishment,  
time and space, they will embrace the human body as it heals. 
We  are spiritual souls inside a framework made of flesh and blood. 
And only when we teach ourselves how to relax, breathe 
and accept all that encompasses us, can we truly find inner peace.

He said, she said
“Not this, not this”
Whereas I continually thought it was so
Eventually though the question arose
If not this, am I that?
I came to know 
that ‘yes’ and ‘no’ were equally true
and so I sat 
in the void between those poles.

Reverse Polarity

The mermaid is all void in her double mind
as she struggles to be in sea and shore,
caged in the paradox of fiction and real. 

She climbs up in life with reasons and rules,
chasing possessions, keeping all scores,
yet someone else she finds  on the throne.

a stream of consciousness now flows  
clinched fists open,  no longer she holds on  
that necklace of diamonds , worthless stones. 
 

In her own Garden of Eden, a new cosmos,
sip by sip millions of moments she drinks.
No boundary of self , a Non-Dual universe.
Her Grey Matter : Black and White merged.

REVERSE POLARITY

Polarity is the relationship, 
between an opposite doctrine, or belief.
Read Joshua eleven, eleven,
child can understand … so simple and brief.

(They smote all the souls—with edge of the sword,
utterly destroying them) … Souls, You!, Me!
(There were not any left to breath) … Souls breath!
Souls not invisible, can die … now see.

Think soul is invisible, cannot die?
Joshua told the truth… please don’t cite lie!

Why does my consciousness get swiftly corroded?
Why my conscience finds itself in contradiction?
Why with strange thoughts, words, and actions mind get loaded?
Why betwixt likes and dislikes there's constant friction...?

Soul soft, as a gentle tender breeze gets soon swayed,
The spirit within, by cares and worries, is hauled;
Cracks in the axle of awareness make verve jade,
My senses, like birds and beasts, in slavery, stalled...!

This is, hence, I have decided to cleanse myself,
All that is making me drown in the sea of dread,
Should be shed and the soul should become a fresh shelf,
Wherein humanness should its motherly wings spread...!

In a bodiless, celestial space now I swim,
All that entrapped me, like a hunter's net, are gone;
Desires defeated heart and mind possess no whim,
Cleansed of all pitch dark clouds I see a dazzling dawn...!

Renunciation and detachment have been born,
And have started dwelling in me, making me light;
Indifferences, like dust in the gale, are blown,
My bond with each being has become rightly tight...!!!

Reverse Polarity

Linage totally broaden,
Spun before the darkness;
Nothing be closed bantered-black,
Horizontal dismissed toggle;
Lists topsy-turvy tracks,
Vertical crevices

Lever rests supported pivots,
Supported cryptic; 
Representation essential role,
Bi-polar toll;
Black darkeness reverse polarity;
Now of this is clear to me?

God's gift a perfect soul,
and the freedom to change ...
I can choose all my thoughts;
oh, God is in the wind,
he helps untie life's knots !

God's gift a perfect soul,
a journey infinite ...
divine strength in my veins;
bodies wither not souls,
faith breaks all rusty chains !

God's gift a perfect soul,
I can switch direction ...
my music is earth sounds;
I let negative go,
and my soul has no bounds !

God's gift a perfect soul,
let his spirit float down ...
surround me with his love;
whisper words just for me,
till my soul is above !
