Heart gentle eye mindful Poetry Contest
"A person experiences life as something separated from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of consciousness. Our task must be to free ourselves from this self-imposed prison, and through mindfulness and a compassionate heart, find the reality of Oneness." Albert Einstein
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
through mindful eyes,
I am alert but calm,
relaxed, collected,
no thought at all
not fear infected
knowing thyself alone
is the light of awareness
one’s true home.
Therefore, everywhere I go,
I am at peace,
in gratitude, grace, and ease
blissfully being nothing,
as free as the breeze,
going my own way as I please.
I see no others
There is only one indivisible spirit
all are lighting the dark, and we are innit,
people of all shapes and sizes
searching for guidance
when the light is already inside us.
One’s own gentle heart is one’s spark,
the truth of who we really are,
the spiritual insight
Oneness beyond duality
choiceless awareness is true clarity,
self-realization beyond body and mind,
as one is formless spirit
the light of love itself,
one’s true essence,
timeless presence.
not a separate identity
but the One Spirit that is everything,
and everybody, it’s the light within,
the Seer behind all eyes
immortal and Divine.
