Knowledge of the Self
Empowers one to go with the flow
Of events occurrences
In this magnum opus
Called Life
To swim with the flow
Or against it
Is the choice
Ignorance causes one to fight it
With innumerable ‘why’ and ‘why not’
When there is no ‘why and why not’
This Knowledge makes this light
Helps to move through life with insight
That all that surrounds me is Me
Just me

Innocence beyond comprehension,
Love beyond every division
Of this mind’s perception
An ocean of Compassion

You showed me the world is my own
To own in Love
And share
Your eternal smile
A beacon of hope
For all to come

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPIER NEW YEAR

Gifts of the gross
Last a while

Gifts of the subtle
Eternal

Of Love and Compassion
For not just mankind
But all kind
Gifts of the subtle
That you my Little One
Gave me
Mine to treasure forever
Gifts which grow with sharing
And caring

Illumine the world
As did the star that
Did at the time
You were born

Mixer, blender toaster, refrigerator
All that makes life easier
Instruments empowered from the same power
That lights up
Defies darkness
Experience the ‘power’
Never touched it with any of my senses
Yet know it by its power to perform

Creation all around an expression
Of the Omnipresent ONE
The force behind all
That enables
Know the Divine only by its expressions
As I know electricity by the lamp that glows

The sun that shines
The water that runs
Bespeak of the One Divine

Know the rose by its fragrance
Its very essence.
The flower long dies leaving its essence behind.
Loved ones depart leaving their essence behind
Essence in the form of thoughts, wisdom and experience.

Each life carries a message
However brief or long

To carry the essence all along
Is to remember the words of wisdom and courage.
And live them
Is to know them eternally

Zipping down the highway of life
People, places, situations whiz past
Enticing, alluring at times
Alarming and painful at others
All whiz past

Nothing outside secures,
Ensures a cruising ride
Except to be anchored within

Like the driver with his seat belt
Anchored to the vehicle

As he whizzes past the highway
The wind in his hair and sun in his eyes
He moves on
Anchored within

KRISHNA O KRISHNA

What qualifications do I need to love you?
To say I love you?
Communicate to commune
spirit communes with the Spirit
The body, this mind are shells that envelop such

The seedling breaks through all envelopes to reach out
To flower
Just as divinity within to Divine around
Just apparent walls that divide
There are none that can divide
ONE
