Hay-Ku of the Day (Slowing Your Mental Roll to a Standstill)

Re: "A misunderstanding or misinterpretation of the purpose of waiting."

OOMM Oldie:

Waiting here at the
Motor Vehicle Bureau
Practicing patience.

Newbies:

Patiently waiting
With "What Is As It Is" is
Waiting on the Lord.

***

Practicing patience 
Is bridling the mind and
Waiting on the Lord.

Bridle your mind at
The divine hitching post and
Wait upon the Lord.

***

We're too mentally
Busy to notice the Lord
Living in our Heart.

Too self-concerned and
Busy to notice the Lord
Present in our Hearts.

***

"Not minding" any 
Thought at all defaults the Mind
To Minding the Lord.

"Not minding" myself
As I think defaults the mind
To "Minding the Lord."

***

"Not minding "What Is
As It Is" defaults the mind
To "Being the Lord."

"Not minding "What Is
As It Is" defaults the mind
To "Oneness with All."

***

It takes No Time to
Wait upon the Lord Who is Now
Living in Our Hearts.

"To Be Still and Know
That I Am God" is "Waiting
On the Lord with us."

***

Being mentally 
Still is "Waiting on the Lord"
As God's Awareness.

Only a Still and 
Silent Mind is Pure Enough
To Behold the Lord.

***

Accepting "What is
As It Is" is "Taking your
Stand as Awareness."

I take my stand as
The Witnessing Presence of
Divine Awareness.

Take your stand as the
Awareness You Are instead
Of what you now think.

Re:,"A fast mind is sick,
A slow mind is sound,
A still mind is divine."

 Meher Baba (paraphrase of the "Don't Worry, Be Happy!" guy)

A mind that is not
Worried or self-concerned is
Naturally Happy.

A mind that is not
Self-preoccupied becomes
Happiness Itself.

Re:"...Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord..."Exodus 14:13 KJV

"...they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." Isaiah 40:31 KJV

Re: A SILENT MIND

An Empty Mind
Is also Clear;
Without thought
There is No Fear

A Quite Mind
Lives in Peace;
Makes the Most
Of Even Least.

A Silent Mind
Has No Bound;
Open and Still
Itself is Found.

Circa 1982
