quiet mindfulness
notices our inner cleansing
brought about in our stillness
as strange feral stirrings rise to the surface
which we then view with wondrous astonishment
being unaware that they were resident
within our subconscious mind
darkening our soul
we are nonchalant
whilst also surprised
knowing that ego is false
maya having immersed us in delusion
there being no shame in our past indulgence
essence of presence being pure and unstained
temporarily lost in hypnotic trance
from which it now unshackles
reclaiming divinity
in clear light
of truth

Bound to form, habituated to conditioned patterns of experiential thought and aspirational imagination interpreting sensory signals, yet recognising the inherent limitation of such stuporous indulgence, awareness gradually unshackles itself from these narrow fetters, embracing the omnipresent life pulse in an unbroken flowing continuum. Hollowed out form, empty and magnetised, imbibes the divine elixirous currents, automatically & osmotically assimilating the soma nectar into each pore of being, in a manner as ordained. There is no doer and thus no doing, the divine being the mover facilitating blossoming, awareness in witness mode, simply looking at boundaries between form & formlessness merging, into an unending wave of ecstasy in motion.
Who comes and who goes
No one here save pure presence
Vaporised as bliss

Nature draws me to Her beauty,
and curiosity
unshackles my soul, setting it free.
I experience a euphoric
natural intoxication
that opens my mind;
and fuels my imagination.
She exploits my fascination with life
and I feel deeply compelled
to forage an ethereal bond;
akin to a spiritual connection.
Nature and God are conjoined
offering me both life,
and the supernal peace
of an eventual death.

The sun’s devouring rays
Reveals an astounding sensation against the marvelous universe
It caresses the earth with warm hugs and gives life to the motionless gaze
Its auras are above nature’s designating exteriors
Its swaying beauty is beyond Earth’s inhabitants, deserving my praise
It treasures the sky with joyousness and forms swarms of jeering birds
The sighs of the wind attracts clamoring herds
The sun’s appalling flames
Unshackles a zealous tune that reveals the Earth’s accord
It embraces the atmosphere with remarkable claims
Unraveling my curiosity; my ears are pleading to hear more, so I go forward!
It prizes the ocean with eagerness and forms swarms of screeching seagulls
The strength of the waves draws in scorching souls
The sun's unattainable rays
Motivate life to trail on till its duty is done
Its auras seep through the whirling sky and strays
Embracing ambitious love like a father and son

To know,is to understand
the presence buried within
and sense love's reality
that unshackles and makes free;
To see,is to understand
thought-pictures deep,inside me
alight and in clarity
speak with faith and charity;
To be,is to understand
a wholeness and harmony
held together,hour by hour
shielded in,a strong tower;
To feel, is to understand
the spiritual alive,
close-by,alongside ,a friend,
new life now ,and without end;
To trust,is to understand
what He did,not what I do,
that gave this free gift to me
By death,hanging on a tree.
