Unalloyed Poems | Examples

Premium MemberMy dream within a dream

surfing the bardo in deep trance
before me appeared the goat head
I glanced at Baphomet askance
afraid to be by his hand led
as he pointed out at five gates
where dreams within dreams hypnotise
domains where dark desire checkmates
our soul’s light which first ebbs then dies

on waking up from this dark dream
a line of thought occurred to me
on what if life is a thought stream
for here too soul’s light I don’t see
so deepening contemplation 
I paused in the vast vibrant void
poised therein in thought cessation
whence I saw soul’s light unalloyed

as pure awareness self-aware
drenched in bliss mists feeling complete
in a realm outside time and space 
I remained still there as a dare
aligned with love’s sublime bliss beat
whence beholding clearly God’s face
with His heartbeat I chose to pair
exchanging a playful love tweet
entwined with Him in close embrace

Premium MemberSutra 15-16 from The Holy Science

“Just as the objects seen in our dreams are found, when we awake, to be insubstantial, so our waking perceptions are likewise unreal—a matter of inference only.”

~ extract from ‘The Holy Science’


Being the dreamer and the dreamed,
how may we in the dream awake
as long as thought spirals are streamed?
Let’s make our mind calm like a lake!

With thoughts rested, poised in the void,
we as awareness self-aware,
reclaim light of Self unalloyed,
whence ego cravings we outstare.

Thought cessation is then the way,
for us to see and recognise
our true essence as clear as day,
beheld only when ego dies.

Let’s be with love and light aligned ~
We’re living light, not body-mind

Premium MemberClear sight

Depending upon words as symbols employed,
we may label the absolute Self as God,
the substratum of existence unalloyed,
recognised in staid silence when heart has thawed,
that pristine presence, no longer by thoughts toyed,
dissolves all opposites, giving love our nod.
Everything that exists, is but God’s heartbeat,
mirrored as bliss heat that makes us feel complete.

In meditation space and time disappear,
where all that exists is the Self as God’s flame,
renewing itself in itself without fear,
Absolute Self motionless, always the same,
highly dense bright darkness and as we draw near,
we see the ultimate truth in life’s end game.
Obtaining clear sight, the mind of our heart knows,
that we are all in the boat God Himself rows.

Premium MemberConceptual vs factual

in the heart of the absolute
an intent arose
to manifest as a soul seed
then see how He grows 

hiranyagarbha: cosmic egg
shaped like head ovoid
was the first manifestation 
pure and unalloyed

both immanent and transcendent 
Self as living light
crystallised then as body-mind
where ego blurred sight

earth life’s real and yet a dream
twirled by gunas three
yet light innate cannot be caged
silence sets us free

knowing this not, we pray to gods
concepts we’ve been fed
adept at brainwashing ourselves
truth’s as good as dead 

in a state of inner conflict
head and heart apart 
God smiles at us when we choose love
that’s the way to start

boundaries blur when love awakes
pheromones mingle
in samadhi we transcend mind
our soul’s eye single 

the seeker who sought disappears
Self alone remains
this is the way, weary hermit
to shed ego chains

Premium MemberCage of duality

Destiny any, there’s a common thread
in the unique journey of every soul,
going through life, playing their ordained role,
attachments gripping fickle heart in dread.
False is the narrative which we’ve been fed,
ego the villain, who inner light stole,
veiling soul’s sheen with thoughts as black as coal,
negating heart’s love by living in head.

Melding head with heart, we exit the maze,
making in staid silence, our eye single,
whereupon by shifting into the void,
our inner presence wakes up from its daze,
rapture heightening as bliss spasms tingle,
revealing our Self, pure and unalloyed.

Premium MemberFlickering awareness

we soften attention
ego thins out 
wisdom downloads follow
erasing doubt 

kundalini rises
we enter the void
bliss is enabled
in pure heart unalloyed

stillness deepens
light of Self is revealed
though we know who we are
heart is not fully healed

completion awaits
as we come undone 
our heart intuits
God and we are one

made in God’s image
we are living light
His presence is sensed
in bliss beats that delight

be this as it may
even as we burn
for the quietus
we await our turn

testing presence in solitude
as magnetism builds amplitude
we are poised centred in the void
with love and light fully imbued

cosmic egg as our head ovoid
as also pure heart unalloyed
both entwine and with love align
no longer by ego decoyed

gathered under the oneness sign
burnt in fire of bliss mists benign
both immanent and transcendent 
God alone is for who we pine

Premium MemberEmptiness

What was once important is now mundane,
since we look neither ahead nor behind,
resplendent in light of Self, free from stain,
with pulsations of divine will aligned.
There is no time, yet dream images flow,
enlivening existence with their glow
and yet they are but shimmers in the void,
orbiting our heart, pure and unalloyed.

unsteady are our steps, for we are inept,
so simply shifting into the vibrant void,
with the glue of attachment no longer kept,
we are no longer by dark desires decoyed,
since thoughts before they arise, we intercept,
in time revealing light of Self unalloyed,
which although we always were, are and will be,
becomes a recognition that sets soul free

Premium Memberpoint of potentiality

in tranquil repose, we so chose
to discard conditioned belief 
whence like the phoenix, bliss mists rose
granting soul much needed relief

formless presence poised in the void
drew in its heart, scattered intent
that essence of light unalloyed 
grants agape love soul’s full consent

in staid stillness, energy peaked
breath retained, awaiting release
kissed by the mist, heart now love-streaked
breathed out grace with nonchalant ease

Premium MemberMade in God’s image

To discern the truth transcending space-time,
befriending silence, we entered the void,
where emptiness was filled with bliss beat’s chime,
revealing soul’s light, pure and unalloyed.

“The silence faded with a soft embrace”,
leaving in heart love’s benign after-burn,
that as God’s grace entwined us with vast space,
our presence reached the point of no return.

We saw our Self, shining as living light,
being that which is in God’s image made,
with each node of form dancing with delight,
we saw far more than for what we had prayed.

The seeker who once sought, does not exist ~
All of him that remains, is a bliss mist

SILENCE

"Boron in its crystalline carbon structure, I am glad to be!"

Mesmerising whispers of silence..
Settle down quietly below the fire.
Bolstering support of silence..
Upholding pristine unalloyed promise.
Learnings and lessons of silence..
Carving a rock into the star.
The sturdy clutch of the silence..
Embracing the most promising touch.
Silent steps of the silence…
Galloping along proudly through the stride.
Glittering candor of the silence..
Gliding together forever thru the stars

Silent attempts of the silence..
Gracefully bowed and proudly vowed!

Premium Memberpause the cause

“may gifts of silence illumine our mind ~
childlike heart becoming loving and kind”
            ~ quote by poet


as we gather pebbles in our heart’s nest
we may do well to pause and then reflect 
that all we hold onto death’s tongs will wrest
leaving our deluded soul here shipwrecked

play of life is in incessant motion
where we cannot cross the same river twice
a quiescent heart ending commotion
whence each moment in time is paradise

gifts of solitude strengthen fortitude 
that poised in the void by thoughts not decoyed
our aura is with love and light imbued
revealing pure light of Self unalloyed 

contrast desire with soul’s eternal fire ~
search for truth within, in silence inquire

Premium MemberThe pathless path

Someone asked us how we began,
in as what was our truth search plan
and the path to which we were drawn
to perform a consciousness scan?

We sleep when we’re prompted to yawn,
awaking to vibrance of dawn,
table laid for joy readymade,
soul transforming as life flows on.

Let us then call a spade a spade,
saying God’s always at our aid,
which we know not, for we’re in thought,
assigning our ego a grade.

In strobes of love and light we’re taught,
recognised if heart be not taut,
for which if we befriend the void,
we’ll frolic carefree as we ought.

No longer then by mind decoyed,
childlike heart pure and unalloyed,
lighting the lamp of love within,
God’s grace ignites our head ovoid.

Life is a dream, know there’s no sin.
Breath by breath let’s anew begin.
God dwells in the cave of our heart.
He calls to us; plunge in therein.

Premium MemberThe Music of Waves

“The sea casts a magic spell with the ever- rising breakers and the melody, the clanking of waves produce. It amazes us with the wonders hiding within its caverns. Without drawing any boundary or barrier, it rushes
to touch or submerge everything on its way”--- Quote by the Poet.

What engrossing feel overpowers me,
As I loiter along the sandy strands of the sea.
Waves whisper their goodbye as they recede back,
Girdling the shore with a garland of foamy blooms.
A zephyr comes tickling and tangling my hair
Seaweeds sway back and forth as waters shoot up.

Beneath the sand, when wavelets on my ankles kiss,
Like a child, I long to jump into the wobbling mass.
I let the water braid my hands, to savor its coolness.
Though I don’t like its chaotic depths and crashing tides,
In the music of waves, I enjoy a moment of unalloyed joy.
The sea is indeed a sanctuary of never- ending epiphanies.
