Dear Doer!
Descend from above
Do daring deeds of love.
Deepen the horizons
Deviate the delusions
Dark clouds are tentative
Divine grace is operative.
Do you see the daffodils?
Dare to bloom even on hills.

We Are Not the Doer
The verve to serve
those we opine deserve,
surely compassion selective
though touch of love is effective
healing those who before us appear
but perhaps we should consider
that identity is not the doer
we are but God’s channel
who He does empanel

A Non-Doer Asks
All conflicts must be healed by love alone,
was the message of the wisdom download
and so taking these as words etched in stone,
our bliss suffused heart sang to God an ode.
Leading by example, masters have shown
that all being one, love alone’s real
and in time will blossom seeds we have sown,
pervading space with its boundless appeal.
How then

Vibrant Non-Doer
Vibrant Non-doer
Any urge, including the urge
to serve, is an ego borne surge,
unless with love in alignment,
the good deed but an assignment,
recognising God alone is
the power propelling bliss fizz,
that soul encased in feeble form
ascends, grazed by magnetism warm,
celebrating the gift of life,
moment to moment, thus bliss rife,
always still, unless it’s God’s will,
that His prophecies we fulfil.

Doer Or Non-Doer
Use
of force
to attain
our hearts desire
makes us a doer,
applying own effort
to attain sought after goals,
displaying lack of trust in God,
unwillingness to let go of mind,
thus creating a wall of resistance.
Far better then, to choose resonation,
with vibrations of the universe,
pouring into void, pure intent,
nonchalant about outcomes,
placing trust on Gods will,
knowing that His love
beyond measure
will set us,
in time,
free.

Miss Hattie - the Soul Toucher
MS. HATTIE: THE SOUL TOUCHER
Her kindness kindled the soul,
Her sense of dignity and brilliance
Permeated the classroom
Inciting logic and wit
That only a “thinker” could endure
She plunged forth in strident awe as though
Learning about God were all there was to life.
Her smile engulfed the hearts of her students
And evoked an intrigue for enlightenment.
O, the mystery

Non-Doer Doing
Accustomed to an environ combative & competitive, identity finds it disconcerting to rest in stillness attentive & meditative, wondrously viewing heightening magnetism in the void of emptiness as potentiality, nonchalantly releasing the humming current as manifestations of enigmatically shifting beauty. Spanda, thus renewed with each breath. Within.
Poised and attentive
Humming stillness speaks softly
As silent thunder

Doer Vs Non-Doer
Who is the doer
Or non-doer
When a God alone is the mover
We are at best a cogniser
An experiencer
As layers of ego we uncover
If distilling attention be a doing
So then is quietude prioritising
Even the breath we are breathing
Also not quite a happening
For it too is varying
With our attention fluctuating ...
Surrender too requiring a surrenderer
Who within

A word to know well—
Someone who’s contemptible!
A coward for sure . . .
Infamous and obnoxious . . .
A miscreant immoral!

Doer and Deeds
Once doer and deeds raised a quarrel
Doer: “Deeds, you are very bored and hard”
Deeds: “So you are weak and unable”
Both laughed, took rest to be active
Doer: “Are you making some light fun of me?”
Deeds: “No it is as you are passive”
Both again laughed, looked around
Doer: “You are a thing but I am human being”
Deeds: “Here

Doer of the Deeds
Doer of the deeds,
sender to the dirt.
Please be kind when you take me,
be sure it doesn't hurt.
Let me die within my sleep,
not by a killers hands.
Or in some tangled wreck of steel,
by some intoxicated man.
Let it not be by some pain,
of which there is no cure.
Or in a bed hooked to machines,
not knowing what is
