with each enablement bestowed
ego urges need to be stowed
for which we need to be watchful
as a debt to God by us owed


Premium Member Zen mode

Here and now in feeble form dome
Mindfully subtle body comb 
Invoking thus bliss magnetism 
Giving rise to the mantra Om

ego lowers, spirit raises 
in the void our presence grazes
unbound is delight of our heart
singing for God endless praises

Premium Member Zen mode

mind rests so there is no debate
we have no agenda to state
in the timeless now bliss beats wow
we happily embrace our fate

Premium Member Thought of the day

let’s get together, sing a hymn
from the heart, an ode to Him
then hush the blush and be still
we are He, we are God’s limb
god


Premium Member Zen mode

when awareness drops we react
recognising this as a fact
we choose consciousness correction
by forging with stillness a pact

Premium Member Zen mode

resting mind that weighs and sizes
at source wherefrom bliss arises
we rest as presence self-aware
imbibing offered surprises

Premium Member Thought of the day

freedom through renunciation 
if be our playful flirtation
we can then embrace and release
each thought and offered sensation

Premium Member Thought of the day

world a stage, ego the cage
where fire of desire does rage
tame thought tempests of the mind
slow down child, turn a new page

Premium Member Thought of the day

glorifying what we attain
looking at others with disdain
if our heart’s left lagging behind
methinks we still wear ego’s chain

Premium Member Zen mode

all being one, a seamless whole
sees every node playing its role
tango dancing in slow motion
performing for our blissful soul

Premium Member Thought of the day

what tidings will the morrow bring
caress of love or a bee’s sting
fate any, how do we respond 
will our heart continue to sing

Premium Member Thought of the day

Awareness sans love is inert,
heart’s joy unable to assert,
so of what use is that knowing,
which bliss magnetism cannot spurt?

Premium Member Zen mode

in jest the universe does test
if there be a load on our chest
so this dance divine we approve
outcomes any, we’re by God blest

Premium Member Thought of the day

waves of thought forms rise and subside
surfing the gap we smoothly glide
consciousness holding memory
forever pulsating inside

Premium Member Zen mode

magnetic mists both cool and warm
conjure within us a bliss storm
as God’s conduit, here upon earth
all we do is gently conform

Premium Member Thought of the day

given that we are living light 
child of God always shining bright
enlivened by Holy Spirit 
why for then do we crouch in fright

Premium Member Zen mode

pain arose, a discordant note
soul yet afloat in a bliss boat
doing nothing, simply looking
plunged into the void, in free float

Premium Member Thought of the day

there comes a time when desires end
we neither ascend nor descend
yet there’s spontaneous intent
a pulsation with which we blend

Premium Member Zen mode

ego dies and with it desire
yet our heart is always afire
resplendent in the light of Self
borne by bliss beats that do not tire

Premium Member Thought of the day

the path is this, simple and stark
trusting God, we leap in the dark
we follow love’s scent for ascent
rising along an upward arc

Premium Member Thought of the day

after affirming ‘I am’, pause
we are awareness without cause
resting in subjective knowing
free from attachments, free from flaws

Premium Member Lapped Child

Tears stained her good skirt. Lapped child, he’s fair hurt. Kissed knee with first aid. Soft wiped the laud dirt.

Premium Member Zen mode

a blob of bliss rests on our head
magnetic pulse by God’s will led
wherefrom soma nectar in-pours
touch divine to which we are wed

Premium Member Zen mode

centred everywhere bliss beats rise
each nuance imbibed in surprise
as ignition in renewal
bliss spasms bringing with them sunrise
