…the emptiness expanded rapidly and every sense of
life became drained from her. The realization that came was:
"When there is no personal self, there is also no personal God."

The truth that transcends the intellect will not be seen by means of the intellect. The point of non-action will not be reached by means of deliberate action.
If you want to achieve the point of non-action transcending thought,
sever the root of mind itself and
rest in naked awareness!
If you want to achieve the point of non-action transcending thought,
sever the root of mind itself and
rest in naked awareness!
Mahamudra says that the truth of no-self or the truth of emptiness
is actually who you are before you fabricate a false identity,
so just relax and be the truth of who you are
and stop making stuff up.
Relaxing in the truth of your being
cuts the root of all the ignorance
that causes suffering
and liberates you without effort.
There are no other added ingredients required.

As Rumi says,
“What you are seeking is what is doing the seeking.”
You are what you are searching for.
Just learn to stop fabricating stories about who you are
and rest in the unfabricated truth.
Stop selfing and start being.
Selfing is the ongoing action
of creating a false self identity.
“What you are seeking is what is doing the seeking.”
You are what you are searching for.
Just learn to stop fabricating stories about who you are

Stop selfing and start being.
Selfing is the ongoing action
of creating a false self identity.
Your mind is formless and space-like without any boundaries whatsoever.

Lyrics:
The birds they sang at the break of day
Start again I seem to hear them say
Do not dwell on what has passed away or what is yet to be.
The birds they sang at the break of day
Start again I seem to hear them say
Do not dwell on what has passed away or what is yet to be.
Ah the wars they will be fought again
The holy dove
She will be caught again
bought and sold and bought again
the dove is never free.
The holy dove
She will be caught again
bought and sold and bought again
the dove is never free.
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack
A crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack
A crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.
We asked for signs and the signs were sent:
the birth betrayed the marriage spent
Yeah the widowhood of every single government
signs for all to see
the birth betrayed the marriage spent
Yeah the widowhood of every single government
signs for all to see
I can't run no more with that lawless crowd
Ah but they've summoned,
they've summoned up a thundercloud
and they're going to hear from me.
Ah but they've summoned,
they've summoned up a thundercloud
and they're going to hear from me.
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack A crack in everything
That's how the light gets in
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack A crack in everything
That's how the light gets in
You can add up the parts but you won't have the sum
You can strike up the march on your little broken drum
Every heart, every heart to love will come
but like a refugee
You can strike up the march on your little broken drum
Every heart, every heart to love will come
but like a refugee
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in

Let the waters settle
and you will see the moon and the stars
mirrored in your own being.
and you will see the moon and the stars
mirrored in your own being.
You are not meant for crawling, so don’t.
You have wings.
Learn to use them and fly.

Learn to use them and fly.
Put your thoughts to sleep,
do not let them cast a shadow
over the moon of your heart.
Let go of thinking.
do not let them cast a shadow

Let go of thinking.
Doing as others told me, I was blind.
Coming when others called me, I was lost.
Then I left everyone, myself as well.
Then I found everyone, myself as well.
Coming when others called me, I was lost.
Then I left everyone, myself as well.
Then I found everyone, myself as well.
There is a life-force within your soul, seek that life.
There is a gem in the mountain of your body,
seek that mine.
O traveller, if you are in search of that,
don’t look outside,
look inside yourself and seek that.
There is a gem in the mountain of your body,
seek that mine.
O traveller, if you are in search of that,
don’t look outside,
look inside yourself and seek that.
Achieve some perfection yourself,
so that you may not fall into sorrow
by seeing the perfection in others.
so that you may not fall into sorrow
by seeing the perfection in others.
We can’t help being thirsty,
moving toward the voice of water.
moving toward the voice of water.
This is how it always is when I finish a poem.
A great silence overcomes me
and I wonder why I ever thought to use language.
A great silence overcomes me
and I wonder why I ever thought to use language.
