To creatures of lands, seas, skies.

MANTRA

 She sees in bearded baba
 a radiating white light
 follows him with trust and peace

 alone in the bed meets him
 for mantra in the ear
 only to discover

 a rapist narcissist
 reciting his ode to sex
 in three-word phrases

Oh how you educated civilization

When done with poetry

Report my Irish American journalism

And earth will get literated



When did today's war start

Without Irish ink

The bambinas know no reason well
This you have to bring with your bibles

Body body body


Birth certificate fraudy
Body moving
City be getting down

Octopus

I wonder why 
we fight
among us
with delusion 
of grandeur!

God is an 
Octopus,
a formidable 
ramified power.

Buddhism
Christianity
Hinduism
Islam
Judaism
Sikhism
Taoism
and 
Zoroastrianism
are His
long appended 
arms
with which
He controls
our life on the 
earth.

Why should we 
fight!

Premium Member Chanting

Higher consciousness can be attained through chanting.
"OM" is a popular chant within many a religion,
including but not limited to Jainism, Hinduism and Buddhism.
I do my share of chanting now and again,
but I don't chant "OM," I chant "Amen"
a chant that while chanted can also sung,
Amen, Amen, over and over again.

The Unnegotiable


You may argue I might argue
Truth is laughing at corner
Unshaken unbothered

The Unnegotiable

You web words, I refute
I web words, you refute
Detached and immovable

The Unnegotiable

I pretend to listen
I know you pretend to listen
Beyond realms of words

The Unnegotiable

You love your truth
I love to prove how it is not
We negotiate in circles 

The Unnegotiable

Premium Member Silhouette of Shiva

Falcate glistening moon tonight, upon the starry sky shines bright, the satin smooth milky moonlight, flowing through Himalayan heights, silhouette of Shiva in sight, a time to pray in god’s own light, heart is calm within and quiet, crescent moon’s divine bright midnight.

Premium Member Shakiti Is a Goddess of Shaktism

Shakti is a Goddess of Shaktism 
Spirit of Hinduism
Also called Anaadi, meaning no beginning or end
Or Nitya, meaning forever

Shakti takes a backseat to no other deity
She is the Supreme Brahman
Representing primordial cosmic energy
Creative
Sustaining
Protector of the villager

Shakti is the woman creator of the universe
Shiva, male aspect of same divine being is secondary
She is omnipotent

Christ, avatar.
One Christmas star
Cosmos ajar.
Life dusts disperse.

A child of God
Like trees in sod.
All on Earth laud.
One universe.

Premium Member Religion and Science

I have copies of the bible of many denominations,
along with the many teachings of hinduism and buddhism, 
and judaism as well as a copy of the quran,
but I am not at all a theologian or a religious man.
I am not so much a man of faith as I am a man of science,
but that doesn't mean that I wouldn't have any of this literature in my home.
I do find their images to be very beautiful and their poetry very moving.

Alan W Watts: Rip Great Lapsed Pastor

I
Alan Watts says we live forever
In children if we can bear
There is no joy in going on, ever
And ever as a dying tree or flower

II
He was a brilliant Brit, knew nirvana!
Died as American, in California
Barely making 59 years, once pastor
Presbyterian in Pennsylvania

III
I need to research why he quit
He was undoubtedly good at it
For faithfulness few scholars matched
His authenticity, universality. Unmatched

National, Not Tribal

As some Indians (dot, not feather) go to great lengths to ingratiate themselves by obsequious behaviour (bob your head if you agree with me) could it be the origin of the expression, 'To curry favour'? Tho' hunger knows no bounds forget the fatted calf despite the nation suffering from starvation by more than half they'll curry a horse but not a cow those bovine ungulates are holier than thou

Green Thumb

At the bottom of our garden there's a wayward wandering Jew but I have yet to spot a crawling Christian or dot a hiking Hindu I'm adding to the landscape if it takes me all week going in steadfast search of a meandering Moslem or a sauntering Sikh yet as no rockery looks good without and planting both who could really resist for the ladybirds bees and butterflies a creeping Catholic and a bustling Buddhist

Hidayat Khilji

The Life Bringer or The Big Bang
Theory Explained
Seven plus seven=chodan
Six plus eight=chodan
Five plus nine=chodan
Four plus ten=chodan
Three plus eleven=chodan
Two plus twelve=chodan
One plus thirteen=chodan.
Now what we got seven times chodan.It means seven shots or saat phayray in Hinduism. Actually the big bang is g-ng bang and hidayat is sain tich krich vich.
Are we clear?
Yes Sir,
Good.
Saat Janam saat phayray
Aik tetar do batayray..
