Being You

You must isolate from the crowd 
To be able to assess the crowd 
To think unlike the crowd 
Though in the crowd 
To be you

My Fight

My fight is not about fists and kicks
My fight is about absorbing pain and defeat
My fight is not about climbing the highest peaks
My fight is about self-realization overcoming self-deceit

Premium Member A Necessary Evil

Politicians, a necessary evil: 
you can't live with them…
and they won't let you live without them. 

I finally realized why some of our 
best actors are so dis-likable off screen -- 
I think it is self realization, 
and a desperate need to escape

Is not time
Is not space
Is not an object
Is not a subject 
Is not religion..
Yet all of these are
made only of it...
It is Self realization
It is what
must be known
before any-thing
can be known..
And..it is not an it..
Amazing...!

Understanding

Understanding
by Lanier Thomas

Sitting by the campfire
Under the burning stars
I think of what my life
Has brought to me in scars.
I suddenly realize
In the flickering glow
These have brought true delight
And it was only thus
My soul was made aright
And I am what I am.

Tcc

His smile wakes up my soul-
his laugh is my laugh-
his curiosity peaks my deepest wonders. 

His strength is built from endurance,
and self-realization. 
His strength is given to me;
within every second. 

His abundance of wisdom and love-
oh, his abundance of wisdom and love. 

- CS

Self Realization

Without your eyes, there is no Grand Canyon or Redwood
With SELF, there is both selfishness and selflessness
Stop thinking, start meditating: I have taken, what may I give?
Jesus chose to yield His will, to obey Father. In Jesus I rest
The Incarnation, God taking on flesh, mystery of SELFishNESS

Premium Member I Listen

Hearts agonies-grilled
Tears brim-filled
They pour out.
Like heavy rains after a drought
Vivacious are their aches.
Bearing all, mind breaks
I sit
Physique-psyche knit
I'm not a psychiatrist.
Nor an emancipationist
No solution I give
I'm not corroborative.
Volcanic fire-blaze
Ignites optimism-rays
I never ensure
Cure
Self-realization
Causes transformation

Premium Member Sesquipedalian Self-criticism

Sesquipedalian, sounds like an alien
Syllables trailing from your tongue like a train
Seems like you'd rather leave words in a lather
Forming like foam from the rain in your brain

Eye's water, this slaughter of discourse dissection
Is deserving of mid-course correction at least
If only your colleagues could change the direction
Of this Grand Panjandrum in pedantical feast

Premium Member Kundalini

Divine Spirit within me
Coiled like a sinuous snake
This bubbles with energy.
It creates an inner ache.

There's restlessness in my soul.
There's an unquenchable thirst.
It leads me towards my goal.
In this Spirit I'm immersed.

My consciousness is waken.
Conscience fills with compassion.
My existence is shaken.
Life is light with dispassion.

My self-realization
Leads me to liberation

The Element of Water

Making efforts for self-realization,
start changing attitude by perspiration, a little HYDRATION,

INVIGORATE you to set right goal,
then you get pious way to the soul, a Northside pole,

PRECIPITATION of greed envy lust,
CRYSTALLIZATION of desires is must, fulfillment of thirst,

its the REQUISITE for success label,
senses become fully IMPERMEABLE, as waterfall bearable.

Fewer Days

My days are numbered
I sense scant few
no count on precisely
but know that its true.

I might make some changes
if only I knew
though change is unlikely
not having a clue.

Looking out over yonder
past some fog in my brain
no foretelling the future
as the days they do wane.

Passing thoughts
.......introspection
not a fatalist view
just a self realization
the days remaining are few!

Dearly Beloved

Dearly beloved, I say to you only.
Keep you in the heart,and only you,lord,
in your own world, I say in this world.
Dearly beloved, I say to you only.

Whenever you see me smiling,
The heart then becomes my self -realization,
The feeling is yours.
Mind strings are also added,when you are together,
Dear born of our heart,I say to you only.
That's what I say from the heart.
Dearly beloved, I say to you only.

Premium Member My Thoughts

My thoughts run deep
So deep I can’t sleep
The way they wind
Continue to grind
Through my mind
Extensions of fears
Memories of past tears
Further my determination
To have self realization
Past used to fuel future
As I control new venture
Navigating uncharted water
I have become a self-starter
Or have I always been
Myself I have to prove again
If I can put action in motion
Turn these paper thoughts
Into real life devotion

Book of Changes

I consult the I Ching with a question
Only I myself will ask.
Giving Taoism my full attention
Three pennies I will cast.
Six casts in all will yield a hexagram
Chance determines each line.
The bottom three shows plainly who I am
The top three will divine.
Depending on the hexagram result
In it lies a message.
The book of changes I must now consult
Determines the presage.

Wind followed by wind
Is self-realization
One continuum.

Premium Member Inner Teacher

Inner Teacher

We were taught many things
and we believed from the start..
A cultural dogma we inherited..
A truth assumed obvious 
for all of those years..
Seeming never to have attended to 
our inner teacher..
This teacher avoids books and Google
allowing experience to grip in clarity..
In lesson #1 
we find the perennial error: 
of mind and matter separated
as our years expected..
Other lessons follow with
Teacher-realization
Self-realization..
Education's new beginning...
