"Call It Grace"....."That Needs Not Devour" Sunrise/Afternoon Nov. 30, 2014

11/30/2014

This is how a human being can change:
There's a worm addicted to eating
grape leaves.

Suddenly, he wakes up,
call it Grace, whatever, something
wakes him,
and he's no longer
a worm.

He's the entire vineyard,
and the orchard too, the fruit, the trunks,
a growing wisdom and joy
that needs not devour.

Nothing to A Void..... Sunrise/Afternoon Nov. 26, 2014

11/26/2014

Real understanding does not solve problems,
it dissolves them.

The presence of a 'me' in any activity,
including spiritual practice,
insures the continuance of desire
and the perpetuation of fruitless effort.

"Unknowable Truth" Sunrise/Afternoon Nov. 25, 2014

The only proof of absolute Truth is not in knowing it,
because it cannot be known, but in BEING IT.
Ramesh S Balsekar

Understand, I’ll slip quietly away from the noisy crowd when I see the pale stars rising, blooming, over the oaks.
I’ll pursue solitary pathways through the pale twilit meadows, with only this one dream:
You come too.

"If you're not completely naked....." Sunrise/Afternoon Nov. 24, 2014

11/24/2014

0 Comments

Those who don't feel this
Love pulling them like a river,
those who don't drink dawn
like a cup of spring water
or take in sunset like supper,
those who don't want to change,

let them sleep.

This Love is beyond the study of theology,
that old trickery and hypocrisy.
If you want to improve your mind that way,

sleep on.

I've given up on my brain.
I've torn the cloth to shreds and thrown it away.

If you're not completely naked,
wrap your beautiful robe of words around you,
and sleep.

–Rumi

Don’t go off sightseeing.
The real journey is right here.
The great excursion starts
from exactly where you are.

You are the world.
You have everything you need.
You are the secret.
You are the wide opened.

Don’t look for the remedy for your troubles
outside yourself.
You are the medicine.
You are the cure for your own sorrow.

ONLY SOURCE - ".....A MIRROR REFLECTING NOTHING" Sunrise/Afternoon Nov. 13, 2014

11/13/2014

0 Comments

TODAY..... Be foolishly in love. A spirit that lives in this world
and does not wear the shirt of love,
such an existence is a deep disgrace.
Be foolishly in love,
because love is all there is.

There is no way into presence
except through a love exchange.
If someone asks, But what is love?
answer, Dissolving the will.

True freedom comes to those
who have escaped the questions
of freewill and fate.
Love is an emperor.
The two worlds play across him.
He barely notices their tumbling game.

Love and lover live in eternity.
Other desires are substitutes
for that way of being.
How long do you lay embracing a corpse?
Love rather the soul, which cannot be held.

Anything born in spring dies in the fall,
but love is not seasonal.
With wine pressed from grapes,
expect a hangover.
But this love path has no expectations.

You are uneasy riding the body?
Dismount. Travel lighter.
Wings will be given.
Be clear like a mirror
reflecting nothing.

Be clean of pictures and the worry
that comes with images.
Gaze into what is not ashamed
or afraid of any truth.
Contain all human faces in your own
without any judgment of them.

Be pure emptiness.
What is inside that? you ask.
Silence is all I can say.
Lovers have some secrets
That they keep.

—Rumi

DEEP WITHIN

THERE IS A PLACE WHERE NOTHING (NO THING) EXISTS THAT IS KNOWN TO HUMANS

THE UNKNOWABLE

THE UNTHINKABLE,

THE UNWORDABLE

IS ALL THAT IS

BE THIS

ALLOW THE GREAT SOURCE TO DANCE, LIVE, MOVE/BREATHE AND THINK

THE LIFE.

THERE IS NO VOLITION OF A SEPARATE LIFE FROM THIS GREAT NOTHING

THE MOMENT THERE IS DISTRESS OF ANY QUALITY IN AWARENESS

RETURN TO NOTHING WITHIN.

YOUR EXHALE IS THE DIVINE INAHLE
BE THIS

YOUR INHALE IS THE DIVINE EXHALE
BE THIS

UNTIL THERE IS ONLY SOURCE

WITHOUT INHALE OR EXHALE

IT IS ALL THE SAME

Now in the blessed days of more and less
when the news about time is that each day

there is less of it I know none of that
as I walk out through the early garden

only the day and I are here with no
before or after and the dew looks up
without a number or a present age

"Wordless Wonder......." Sunrise/Afternoon Nov. 9, 2014

11/9/2014

0 Comments

A Lover cannot be convinced, lawyerly,
That "Consciousness is all there is",
Or any such thing...

Nor do they care.

A physics "debate" on the nature of "reality",
However diamond-like the exposition,
However seemingly irrefutable...

Is a spoonful of dirt in a Lover's mouth.

A Lover desires the Wine of Longing,
The Intoxication of Dissolution,
The Rapture of Union...

Not a dissertation that seeks to "prove".

They do not seek knowledge... "about",
From the mind of another,
But the Direct Experience "of"...

In the immediacy of Existence, Now.

The knowledge of those who came before,
Debated among 10,000 schools,
Is valued only to the extent that it serves...

The Blossoming of the Heart, Now.

A Lover longs for wordless Benediction,
Not a "convincing" construct of logic and reason,
Leading to a "conclusion" of the mind...

A half-empty glass of tepid water.

The mind-bound declare this a childish emotionalism,
The stance of those unable to comprehend,
Born of a wounded need for psychological healing...

A dualistic View for the simple-minded.

But the Lover, too, uses discernment and discrimination,
Only discarding them when their purpose is served,
Words, concepts, and logical constructs...

Having reached the end of their utility.

They revel, instead,
In Wordless Wonder of the Unknowable,
And speak of that which cannot be spoken of...

The Ineffable Sublimity of the Great Mystery.

A Love not by Lover given,
Or from Beloved received,
Rather...

The end of Lover and Beloved.

In which the "meaning" of the word "Love" Vanishes,
And only Experience remains,
An Experience had by no one, of...

Above: Full Moonset at Sunrise

In reality there is only the source,
dark in itself,
making everything shine.

Unperceived, it causes perception.
Unfelt, it causes feeling.
Unthinkable, it causes thought.
Non-being, it gives birth to being.

It is the immovable background of motion.
Once you are there,
you are at home everywhere.

I know that I love the day,
The sun on the mountain, the Pacific
Shiny and accomplishing itself in breakers,

But I know I live half alive in the world,
Half my life belongs to the wild darkness.

"Be The Mystery" - Sunrise/Afternoon Nov. 5, 2014

11/5/2014

0 Comments

Quiet friend who has come so far,
feel how your breathing
makes more space around you.

Let this darkness be a bell tower
and you the bell.

As you ring,
what batters you becomes your strength.
Move back and forth into the change.

What is it like,
such intensity of pain?
If the drink is bitter,
turn yourself to wine.

In this uncontainable night,
be the mystery
at the crossroads of your senses,
the meaning discovered there.

And if the world has ceased to hear you,
say to the silent earth:
I flow.
To the rushing water,
speak: I am.

~ Rainer Maria Rilke
from Sonnets of Orpheus II,
29 translation by Joanna Macy and Anita Barrows
