This Holy Moment
Awareness Knows Sensation
Consciousness is Born.
I Am Awareness
Embodied as a Sense of
Radiant Presence.
Infinite rays shine,
Blazing from one central sun,
Universal light.
***
East:
Centered in the One
Abiding in the Balance
Mindful of the Light.
West:
Being here and now
Still and Silent as I am
One with the Father.
***
A basement cricket
Competing with my day dreams
Who is more alive!
Playful old puppies,
She frolics, he gently paws—
Love in furry coats.
Buenos Aires Street
Another dreaming wayfarer
Lost in the Garden.
***
Clanging pots and pans
Startle my thoughtful repose --
Another wake-up call.
Over-bloated house,
Swollen with self-importance—
Bellowing bullfrog.
One’s caterpillar
Nature must die to give birth
To the butterfly.
***
Thinking of myself
In relative terms I am
Subject to objects.
Worshiping the past,
Imagining the future,
Missing the moment.
The good and bad thieves
Of the future and past are
Stealing the Present.
***
My soulful anguish,
Mid-wife to eternal glory,
Cosmic labor pains.
Hell is in your head,
Heaven is in your heart and
Love is everywhere.
Transmuting ego m
Lead into spiritual gold
Is suffering’s job.
***
Floating dandelion
Seed softly lighting upon
An un-grasping hand.
[Rich Note: Had to apologize Chuck Hillig for the "mini-data dump," new arrangement of old favorites, from which I concluded it was again time to reprise these old friends in a larger context. Clearly, once a metaphysical riff such as this starts starts, I am pretty much incapable of turning off the facet -- simply too much fun to do anything but "go with the flow."]
