Silence is the language of God,
all else is poor translation.
~Rumi

when I focus on day-to-day entitlements, I forget the wise ways.....
inquiry for today~ may you too, remember.....:

Stillness is vital to the world of the soul.
If as you age you become more still,
you will discover that stillness can be a great companion.

The fragments of your life will have time to unify,
and the places
where your soul-shelter is wounded or broken
will have time to knit and heal.

You will be able to return to yourself.
In this stillness, you will engage your soul.

Many people miss out on themselves completely as they journey through life.
They know others, they know places, they know skills,
they know their work,
but tragically,
they do not know themselves at all.

Aging can be a lovely time of ripening
when you actually meet yourself,
indeed maybe for the first time.

There are beautiful lines from T. S. Eliot that say:

'And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.'
~John O'Donohue

AFTERNOON

Rumi ♡ Lovers have some secrets

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.

June 21, 2015

August 5, 2018

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

"...MOUNTED BEYOND SELF."

“Then,”
says the writer of the Cloud (of Unknowing)
--whispering as it were to the bewildered neophyte
the dearest secret of his love--

--“then will He sometimes peradventure
send out a beam of ghostly light,
piercing this cloud of unknowing that is betwixt thee and Him;
and show thee some of His privity,
the which man may not,
nor cannot speak.”
Evelyn Underhill –
in her Introduction to
Cloud of Unknowing

Whoever is to be poor in spirit
must be poor in all his own knowing
so that he knows nothing of God,
nothing of any created object,
and nothing of himself.
~ Meister Eckhart

This is love:
to fly toward a secret sky,
to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.
First to let go of life.
Finally, to take a step without feet.

Experiencing Rumi's "take a step without feet".

The guises you employ
To protect yourself
From the world
Also deny you
Full access to your heart. ...

...To love fully and completely
Demands the willingness
To be annihilated.

5:42 AM-6/6/20

The world's spiritual geniuses seem to discover universally
that the mind's muddy river,
this ceaseless flow of trivia and trash,
cannot be dammed,
and that trying to dam it is a waste of effort
that might lead to madness.

Instead you must
allow the muddy river to flow unheeded
in the dim channels of consciousness;
you raise your sights;

you look along it, mildly,
acknowledging its presence without interest
and gazing beyond it into the realm of the real
where subjects and objects act
and
rest purely,
without utterance.

AFTERNOON

You see what the eye does teach;
and yet it would never of itself
have afforded this insight, without something
that looks through the eyes
and uses the data of the senses
as mere guides to penetrate
from the apparent to the unseen.

It is needless
to add the methods of geometry
that lead us step by step
through visible delineations
to truths that lie out of sight,
and countless other instances
which all prove that apprehension
is the work of an intellectual essence
deeply seated in our nature,
acting through the operation
of our bodily senses.

—St. Gregory of Nyssa (335 – 395)
http://peacefullpresence.blogspot.com/2020/06/is-it-body-that-is-thinking-or-is-it.html

If you’ve got somebody’s aspects
in your experience that you don’t like,
there’s only one reason they’re there.
You keep evoking them with your attention to them.

Without knowing about Law of Attraction, you have
— through your old habit of observation --
achieved vibrational harmony with the parts of them
that you do not like,...
and you keep summoning
those parts from them
by your constant
vibrational offering of them.
Esther (Hicks)
(and Abraham and Jerry)

First, forget what time it is
for an hour
do it regularly every day

then forget what day of the week it is
and do this regularly for a week
then forget what country you are in
and practice doing it in company
for a week
and then do them together
for a week
with as few breaks as possible

follow these by forgetting to add
or to subtract
it makes no difference
you can change them
around after a week
both will help you later
to forget how to count

forget how to count
starting with your own age
starting with how to count backwards
starting with even numbers
with Roman numerals
starting with fractions of Roman numerals
with the old calendar
going on to the old alphabet
going on to the alphabet
forgetting it all until everything
is continuous again

go on to forgetting elements
starting with water
proceeding to earth
rising in fire

forget fire

—W. S. Merwin

Every moment is grace!
When things come to you without having caused them,
without having sought them,
it is a grace.
Be open, open.
When you do not focus, as right now,
on the absence of thought,
but on Presence only,
these moments are not polluted
and
all is grace.

Having Nothing
Rumi

Whatever comes, comes from a need,
a sore distress, a hurting want.

Mary’s pain made the baby Jesus.
Her womb opened its lips
and spoke the Word.

Every part of you has a secret language.
Your hands and your feet say what you have done.

Every need brings in what’s needed.
Pain bears its cure like a child.

Having nothing produces provisions.
Ask a difficult question
and the marvelous answer appears.

Build a ship, and there will be water
to float it. The tender throated infant cries,
and milk drips from the mother’s breast.

Be thirsty for the ultimate water.
Then be ready for what will come
pouring from the spring.
Rumi

Sadhguru, How Do I Live In The Moment?
A lot of people in the world are trying very hard to 'live in the moment',
and they will keep trying forever.
Because the reality is, they are living in the moment!
You cannot live anywhere else
Sadhguru explains why 'live in the moment' is a stupid idea,
and how to conduct you life consciously.

I imagine one of the reasons that people cling
to their hate (prejudice and racism) so stubbornly
is because they sense that once hate is gone,
they will be forced to deal with
their own pain...

James Baldwin

We project our fears and hate onto others
because we can't look honestly
at ourselves...

Jack Kornfield

When love and hate are both absent
everything becomes clear and undisguised.

Make the smallest distinction, however
and heaven and earth are set infinitely apart.

If you wish to see the truth
then hold no opinion for or against anything.

To set up what you like against what you dislike
is the disease of the mind.

When the deep meaning of things is not understood
the minds essential peace is disturbed....

Indeed, it is due to our choosing to accept or reject
that we do not see the true nature of things.

Seng-T'san
Chinese Poet

Perceptions of The Universe - Selected Quotes

The surface of the earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean.
Some part of our being knows this is where we came from.
We long to return, and we can because the cosmos is
also within us.

We are made of star stuff.

Carl Sagan
Cosmos

What are we?

A fleeting, intricate presence riding a tiny speck of water
and rock, out here in the dark, sailing the ship of wonder
ever more deeply into the void from which we came...

Whitley Strieber and Jeffrey J. Kripal
from:
The Super Natural: A New Vision of the Unexplained

When dew falls as tears from the morning sky,
When riverside trees sparkle in sunlight,
So close in my heart their shadows fall,
Then I know
That the Universe is a floating lotus
In the holy lake of my mind.

Then I know:
I am the voice within the Voice,
The song within the Song,
The life within the Life,
The light breaking through the heart of darkness.

Rabindranath Tagore
from - "A Flight of Swans"
translated by Aurobindo Bose

... thus you came into being
from non-existence...

...like a star without a name...

Move across the night sky
with those anonymous lights...

Rumi

How we perceive affects what we believe,
what we believe affects what our perception is...

IF YOU’RE LUCKY

Some speak of the unprovable,
And ask you to have faith.
Others hold forth their “beliefs”,
As if they were facts.
Some break out a whiteboard,
Asserting, “All is Consciousness.”
If you’re lucky, you’ll meet a poet,
Who makes no sense at all.
Luckier still, you’ll meet one,
Who, without speaking a word…
Ignites the Ember in your Heart.

Birdsong brings relief
to my longing.

I am just as ecstatic as they are,
but with nothing to say.

Please, universal soul, practice
some song, or something, through me.
Rumi
May 20

A bird delegation comes to Solomon
complaining. Why is it
you never criticise the nightingale?

Because my way, the nightingale explains
for Solomon, is different.
Mid-March to mid-June I sing.

The other nine months,
while you continue chirping,
I am silence.
Rumi
May 21

Pray the prayer that is the essence
of every ritual. God, I have no hope.
I am torn to shreds. You are my first,
my last and only refuge.

Do not do daily prayers like a bird
pecking its head up and down.

Prayer is an egg.
Hatch out
the total helplessness inside.
Rumi
July 11

Your True Life

As you start to walk out on the way
the way appears.

As you cease to be,
true life begins.

As you grow smaller,
this world cannot contain you.

You will be shown a being
that has no you in it.
Rumi

AFTERNOON

So often in life, we move beyond what we imagined we were capable of,
and breaking through that boundary
propels us toward transformation.

Someone once said,
"Death comes not to you,
but to someone else whom the gods make ready."

This sentiment feels true to me.
The person I am today, living in this story,
is not exactly the same person
as the one who will die.

Life and death will change me.
I will be different in some very fundamental ways.
For something new to emerge within us,
we must be open to change.

...Dont wait.
Everything we need is right in front of us.
Impermanence is the doorway to possibility.

Embracing it is where true freedom lies.

—Frank Ostaseski
The Five Invitations

If we learn to let go into uncertainty,
to trust that our basic nature and that of the world
are not different,
then the fact that things are not solid and fixed becomes,
rather than a threat,
a liberating opportunity.

Living and Dying: A Buddhist Perspective

No permanence is ours; we are a wave
That flows to fit whatever form it finds:
Through day or night, cathedral or the cave
We pass forever, craving form that binds.

I was ecstatic,
I had discovered Rumi who can join us,
coming from the West and the East or Islam and Christianity,

“Out beyond the ideas of right-doing and wrongdoing,
there is a field I will meet you there.
It’s the world full of things to talk about.”

After I was done with my patients’ schedule
I recalled some of the verses of Rumi:

“Words are a pretext.
It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.”

“Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.”

“Reason is powerless in the expression of love.”

“You have to keep breaking your heart until it opens.”

“Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought.”

“Love is the bridge between you and everything.”

When one tugs at a single thing in nature,
he finds it attached to the rest of the world.
- John Muir

The Peace of Wild Thmgs

When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.

I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

Wendell Berry

(See Read More below Afternoon Photos for More re; this quote)

Friend Rosemary - Harbour Island Bahamas 8/21-19

Sometimes as an antidote
To fear of death,
I eat the stars.
Those nights, lying on my back,
I suck them from the quenching dark
Til they are all, all inside me,
Pepper hot and sharp.

Sometimes, instead, I stir myself
Into a universe still young,
Still warm as blood:
No outer space, just space,
The light of all the not yet stars
Drifting like a bright mist,
And all of us, and everything
Already there
But unconstrained by form.

And sometime it’s enough
To lie down here on earth
Beside our long ancestral bones:
To walk across the cobble fields
Of our discarded skulls,
Each like a treasure, like a chrysalis,
Thinking: whatever left these husks
Flew off on bright wings.

PRIMORDIAL TOUCHSTONE
https://dorotheamills.weebly.com/oceanspeak-youthanasia-sanctarii/primordial-touchstone-his-form-is-emptiness-you-must-dissolve-april-16-2019

Joan Tollifson - Do we have a choice?
No wave can ever go off in a direction
other than the one in which the whole ocean is moving.
We are all a movement of the whole,
not isolated agents capable of going the wrong way....

...But this gets very subtle.
It doesn’t mean becoming passive,
or picking up the belief that “I” have no free will,
that “I” am a helpless robot
being pushed around by the universe.
That belief is still centered
around the idea of a separate entity,
a self, now believed to be powerless.
That is delusion.

Our urges, interests, actions
—and our sense of choice--
are all part of how life functions and moves.
And we are not separate from,
or other than,
life itself.

* RUMI'S VISITOR

The Guest House
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they are a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice.
meet them at the door laughing and invite them in.
Be grateful for whatever comes.
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.

CASTLES IN THE AIR
Phil Long (aka Phievalon)

It feels good to know the truth
And it feels good to avoid delusion
And we humans have cornered the market
On building castles in the air.
We trace eternity with vanishing lines,
on rented wings,
through borrowed time,
Hoping to discover—that our lives really matter.
We look for truth as if it could make a difference.
As if it could add a hair to our heads
or a beat to our hearts.

We want answers
that aren't always behind the questions we ask
And we find that wanting to be loved
isn't quite the same, as loving to be wanted.
And so we settle,
for concrete castles,
though our vaporous souls bid us higher.

We have determined that infinity is measured
by cause and effect
We believe that miracles
must have reasons.
And so we seek for what we can hold
only to discover that we are held—by what we seek.

We are cosmic specks of eternity,
so brief that galaxies don't notice
We are an instant of awareness, perceiving,
We are hope;
A collision of particles
tasting meaning and purpose
And searching the stars for a possibility
with a question...
We ask "Why?"
and darkness answers
with empty echoes from space.

We ask "Why?"
and exploding silence
wrenches truth from mindless chaos.

We ask "Why?"
until open hearts
hear a voice that deafens...

We are miracles, in search of reasons.
But we reach into fractured rainbows
for monochrome mystery
We polish knowledge
as if wishing over enchanted lamps
We speak incantations of hope
into the senseless, churning void

But we are living souls;
breathing, material, madness,
And we have discovered that
It's good to know the truth
and it's good to avoid delusion
And we humans --
We’ve cornered the market on building
castles in the air.

Phil Long

Extensive Morning notes re: the Morning Whisper above

If the only prayer you ever say
in your entire life is thank you,
it will be enough.
Meister Eckhart

No one looks for stars when the sun’s out.
A person blended into God does not disappear.
He, or she,
is just completely soaked in God’s qualities.
Rumi

The more a comet burns away,
the brighter it gets.
As it enters the atmosphere,
more and more of it flakes off and burns up.
Until there is only light.
This is our journey as a spirit
in a body over a lifetime.

As the years wear us down and burn us up,
we grow brighter.

Until at death,
we are all light.

AFTERNOON

The Challenge of Illness - John O'Donohue

We never value or even see some things in our lives
until we are just about to lose them.
This is particularly true of health.

When we are in good health,
we are so busy in the world
that we never even notice how well we are.

Illness comes and challenges everything about us.
It unmasks all pretense.
When you are really ill, you cannot mask it.

Illness also tests the inner fiber
and luminosity of the soul.
It is very difficult to take illness well.
Yet it seems that if
we treat illness as something external
that has singled us out,
and we battle and resist it,
the illness will refuse to leave.

On the other hand,
we must not identify ourselves
with our illness.
.....very ill people are often more alive
to life's possibilities
than the medical verdict
would ever allow or
imagine.

When we learn to see our illness
as a companion or friend,
it really does change the way the illness is present.
The illness changes from a horrible intruder
to a companion
who has something to teach us.

...Sometimes, when you see a thing as the enemy,
you only reinforce its presence
and power over you...

Held openly, as a friend,
this bit of unknown aliveness
may take you on an amazing journey
to places you may
never have anticipated.

Such attention enriches and
deepens genuineness and presence.

Illness also focuses us onto our "inner landscape",
into resting deeply in
the inner silence of the "Soul."

It is a remedial silence that allows us to endure,
to move through,
but not necessarily getting rid of the illness.
We can't have an agenda
- only deep acceptance of the companion -
and learn to navigate it.

John O'Donohue

"Be quiet in your mind,
quiet in your senses,
and also quiet in your body.
Then, when all these are quiet,
don't do anything.

In that state truth will reveal itself to you.
It will appear in front of you and ask,
" what do you want?"
Kabir

Death, a Blessing in Disguise – Osho

Whether you run or you stay
it doesn't matter
death comes.

Death has started coming closer to you
from the very moment you were born.
In what form it comes does not matter.

Bertrand Russell has said
that if there were no death in the world,
there would have been no religion.
He has some great insight there:
without death,
who was going to bother about meditation?

Without death,
who was going to bother to know
about the secret mysteries of life?
One would have remained always concerned
with the mundane and the worldly.
Who would have turned inwards?
There would have been no Gautam Buddha.
So death is not just a calamity,
it is a blessing in disguise.

If you can understand,
if you have this much intelligence
— that after birth, death is approaching every moment closer --
you will not lose your time in trivia.

Your priority will be to know what this life is before it ends:
Who is living in me?
What force?
For every intelligent man and woman
this is the priority.
Everything else is secondary to knowing oneself.
Once you know yourself, there is no death.

Death was only in your ignorance.
In your meditative consciousness,
death disappears just as darkness disappears
when there is light brought in.

Meditation brings the light in,
and death is found to be the greatest fiction.
It appears only from the outside that somebody is dying.
From the inside nobody has ever died,
and that is where your life source is.

Chintan is taking his death very joyously,
very peacefully.
He will die consciously.
He is giving every indication
that death cannot make him unconscious,
cannot knock him unconscious.

He will retain his consciousness,
and he will have a laugh as he will be dying,
because the whole world is living in an illusion.

Life is neither born nor dies.
It has been before birth; it will be after death.
Birth and death both are small episodes
in the eternal stream of consciousness and light.
Excerpt from:
https://o-meditation.com/2020/01/31/death-a-blessing-in-disguise-osho/

I am dead already
Physical death will
make no difference in my case.

I am timeless being.
I am free of desire or fear,
because I do not remember the past
or imagine the future.

Where there are no names and shapes,
how can there be desire and fear?
With desirelessness comes timelessness.

I am safe, because what is not, cannot touch what is.

You feel unsafe, because you imagine danger.
Of course, your body as such is complex and vulnerable
and needs protection.
But not you.

Once you realize your own unassailable being,
you will be at peace.

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

AFTERNOON

citizen of dark times

Learn tropism toward the difficult.
We have not arrived to explain, but to sing.

Young idealism ripens into an ethical life.
Prune back regret to let faith grow.

When you hit rock bottom,
dig farther down.

Grief is the seed of singing,
shame the seed of song.

Keep seeing what you are not saying.
Plunder your reticence.

Songbird guards a twig,
its only weapon a song.
~Kim Stafford

https://makebelieveboutique.com/2020/02/03/31632/

Stay light-footed and keep moving

Do you hear what
the violin
says about longing?

The same as the stick, "I was once
a green branch in the wind."

We are all far from home.
Language is our caravan bell.
Don't stop anywhere.
The moment you're attracted to a place,
you grow bored with it.

Think of the big moves you've already made,
from a single cell to a human being!

Stay light-footed, and keep moving.
Turkish, Arabic, Greek, any tongue
is a wind that was formerly water.

As a breeze carries the ocean inside it,
so underneath every sentence is,
"Come back to the source."
Rumi

Where the lips are silent

Rumi
https://inspirationfeed.com/rumi-quotes/

Life and death are both concepts,
the one being the absence of the other.
The sage ignores such transient concepts
and inheres in the noumenal presence
which is everything.

It is only matter that undergoes change or transformation and which is subject to birth or death,
while the noumenal presence
remains eternally changeless.

Step Through - Fred LaMotte
As you fall asleep tonight,
do not take this inhalation
for granted.
Honor her like a royal guest.

Make a spacious tent
of your flesh,
for She who contains
the galaxies
has come to dwell in you,
pouring her gift from the stars
down your backbone.

Each expiration will lead you
through a silver door,
a mirror of moonlight.
The key is silence.
Step through.

Follow her rainbow into the void
where wings of astonishment
will carry you from death to death.

A scent of blossoms
from the garden in your body
will guide you home,
enlarged by a memory
of stillness.

Neither come nor go
and She will lead you
from the mind to the Heart.

When I make things,
I know they are taken to be quiet and small.
I know there may be no place for them.
I know no one is waiting for them.
I know it may be that no one wants them.
But I must make them.
I must.

AFTERNOON

It is not uncommon for people
to spend their whole life waiting to start living.

The sun never sets.
It is only an appearance due
to the observer’s limited perspective.
And yet,
what a sublime illusion it is.

Life isn’t as serious as the mind makes it out to be.
Whatever the present moment contains,
accept it as if you had chosen it.

Death is a stripping away of all that is not you.
The secret of life is to
‘die before you die’--
and find that
there is no death.

Worry pretends to be necessary
but serves no useful purpose.

All negativity is caused
by an accumulation of psychological time
and denial of the present.

Unease, anxiety, tension, stress, worry
—all forms of fear--
are caused by too much future,
and not enough presence.

Guilt, regret, resentment,
grievances, sadness, bitterness,
and all forms of non-forgiveness
are caused by too much past,
and not enough presence.

Don’t seek happiness. If you seek it, you won’t find it, because seeking is the antithesis of happiness.

To recognize one’s own insanity is, of course,
the arising of sanity,
the beginning of healing and transcendence.

Realize deeply that the present moment
is all you will ever have.

Coming to Terms with Nothingness
What we call emptiness and nothingness
is merely a relative notion or experience,
like moving from the positive to the negative
before both eventually fall away
and all that remains is what Is.

Nevertheless,
if there is any aspect of this journey
I would stress or emphasize,
it is the evident necessity of finally coming to terms
with the nothingness and emptiness of existence,
which, for me,
seemed to be the equivalent
of living out my life without God –
or any such substitute.

Only when this came about,
only when the acclimation
to a life without an ultimate reality
was complete,
when there was no hope,
no trust remaining,
only when I have finally to accept what is,
did I suddenly realize that what is,
is Truth itself and all that Is.

I had to discover
it was only when every single,
subtle, experience and idea
– conscious and unconscious –
has come to an end, a complete end,
that it is possible for the
Truth to reveal Itself.

MID-MORNING SESSION - OCEAN "OFFICE" SPACE

AFTERNOON

The restlessness in the human heart
will never be finally stilled
by any person, project, or place.

The longing is eternal.
This is what constantly qualifies and enlarges
our circles of belonging.
There is a constant and vital tension
between longing and belonging.

Without the shelter of belonging,
our longings would lack direction, focus, and context;
they would be aimless and haunted,
constantly tugging the heart
in a myriad of opposing directions.

Without belonging,
our longing would be demented.

As memory gathers and anchors time,
so does belonging shelter longing.
Belonging without longing
would be empty and dead,
a cold frame around emptiness.

John O'Donohue
Excerpt from this EXCELLENT writing:
http://www.passionart.guide/project/john-o-donohue-celtic-reflections-on-our-yearning-to-belong/

A long dark curve is the poem in your body
is the river
is the loon's throat.
Have you ever asked yourself how
the loon's voice
opens?

You know it first as change in the body.
Even if the blue place you are dreaming
is no longer there
you must begin.
Something that desires to lift
these heavy bones
something simple
and beautiful
miraculous as a feather
forms along the blade
of each wing.

Poised, no longer
settled
you wait as every part of you sheds
what once was,
and is no longer
necessary.

Close to shore you prepare.
And what will it cost you?

And what is this
haunting and wild, now
still in your throat, now
trembling
Set it free
whatever it may cost you
set it free.

3:36 AM-1/25/20

*T.S. Eliot...See first quote below

*I said to my soul,
be still and wait without hope,
for hope would be hope for the wrong thing;
wait without love, for love would be love of the wrong thing;
there is yet faith, but the faith and the love are all in the waiting.
Wait without thought, for you are not ready for thought:
So the darkness shall be the light,
and the stillness the dancing.
― T.S. Eliot

There is a secret medicine given only to those who hurt so hard they can't hope.
The hopers would feel slighted if they knew.
Rumi

I've crossed some kind of invisible line.
I feel as if I've come to a place
I never thought I'd have to come to.

And I don't know how I got here.

It's a strange place.
It's a place where a little harmless dreaming
and then some sleepy, early-morning talk
has led me into considerations
of death and annihilation.
― Raymond Carver,
Where I'm Calling From: New and Selected Stories

The most confused you will ever get is when you try to convince your heart and spirit of something your mind knows is a lie.”
― Shannon L. Alder

AFTERNOON

Death has been with me,
getting my attention, saying nothing.

So this morning, in a hotel in New York,
I take a long shower, hoping the hot, anonymous stream might
wash the aches from my heart and the fear from my mind.
Yet once rinsed of my memory and worry,
death takes off its mask and it is only life
trying to get my attention one more time.

But I insist, I have never taken any of this for granted.
And now, from the inside, I can see the story of the Universe
in the homeless man’s eye,
and the kindness of time in the sun
off the thunderstorm puddle,
which will evaporate by noon.

Like me.
Like you.
Now life appears as a small bird drinking from the puddle.
So that’s it.
All our efforts come down to one life
offering itself as a drink to another
before we evaporate into everything else.

It makes me sad to think that you and I will vanish.
But the way this works is elegant:
the expending of one life
till it is seamlessly absorbed in the next.

And so, this morning,
these thoughts hardly seem my own.
~Mark Nepo
https://makebelieveboutique.com/2020/01/23/31546/

Courage is the measure of our heartfelt
participation with life, with another,
with a community, a work;
a future.

To be courageous is not necessarily
to go anywhere or do anything
except to make conscious those things
we already feel deeply
and then to live through the unending vulnerabilities
of those consequences.

To be courageous
is to seat our feelings deeply in the body
and in the world:
to live up to and into the necessities of relationships
that often already exist,
with things we find we already care deeply about:
with a person, a future, a possibility in society,
or with an unknown that begs us on
and always has begged us on.

Courage is what love looks like
when tested by the simple everyday
necessities of being alive.

my temporal life

changed to eternal

love said to me
you are not
crazy enough
you don’t

i went and
became crazy
crazy enough
to be in chains

love said
you are not
intoxicated enough
you don’t
fit the group

i went and
got drunk
drunk enough
to overflow
with light-headedness

love said
you are still
too clever
filled with
imagination and skepticism

i went and
became gullible
and in fright
pulled away
from it all

love said
you are a candle
attracting everyone
gathering every one
around you

i am no more
a candle spreading light
i gather no more crowds
and like smoke
i am all scattered now

love said
you are a teacher
you are a head
and for everyone
you are a leader

i am no more
not a teacher
not a leader
just a servant
to your wishes

love said
you already have
your own wings
i will not give you
more feathers

and then my heart
pulled itself apart
and filled to the brim
with a new light
overflowed with fresh life

now even the heavens
are thankful that

i have become

AFTERNOON

In the Garden of The Beloved
November 27, 2019 ·

It occurred to me…
There was a time when my Soul Shone, unobscured,
By all that would accrue upon my Naked Innocence,
When the Ecstasy of Being was unalloyed by selfhood,
And I existed as my Essence.

There was a time, before I learned a language,
Before the inner voice began its endless dialog,
Before I came to feel my self as the thinker,
When I was simply Perception.

There was a time before all that is experienced,
Was wrapped in words, concepts, and images,
Overlaying every perception with the already known,
A time when I was simply Immediacy.

There was a time, before the felt sense of my self,
Qualified and conditioned in countless ways,
Came to feel dense, isolated, and alone,
A time when I was simply Experience.

There was a time, before boy-girl; fat-thin, gifted-dim;
Smart-dull; attractive-unattractive; admired-disdained,
A time before qualifications and attributions,
When I simply Was.

And I wondered if, before these Veils enshrouded me,
The Ecstasy of Being I sought so desperately,
Might simply be the Nature of what I Am, Before.

And so I Journeyed within, back, behind, before,
All that had accrued “upon” my naked Innocence,
Until only Perception Remained.

Past the felt sense of myself as a person,
Qualified and judged by myself and others,
Until only Experience Remained.

Past the attributes that had defined the person,
Birthing a relentless concern for stature,
In the eyes of others, and in my own.

Past the words, concepts, and images that cloaked,
And dulled every perception with the already known,
Until only Immediacy Remained.
Within, past all that was not my Essence I Journeyed,
Until I, and all that existed, Vanished utterly,
And somehow, impossibly…

I Remained, not as “I”, but Existence Itself.

And Returning, I saw that it had been as I’d thought,
For the Ecstasy of Being is simply the Nature,
Of what we Are, before we are.

‘DANCING EMPTINESS’*

Silence reveals itself only to itself.
Only when we enter as nothing
and stay as nothing,
will silence open its secret.
― Adyashanti,
Emptiness Dancing

Should you really
open your eyes and see,
you would behold
your image in all images…

And should you
open your ears and listen,
you would hear your own voice
in all voices…
—Kahlil Gibran
...

The soul has been given its own ears to hear
things the mind does not understand.

—Jalalud’din Rumi
https://peacefullpresence.blogspot.com/2020/01/save-all-your-energies-and-time-for.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+blogspot%2FmnCFM+%28Love+Is+A+Place%29

I am too alone in the world, and not alone enough
to make every minute holy.
I am too tiny in this world,
and not tiny enough
just to lie before you like a thing,
shrewd and secretive.

I want my own will,
and I want simply to be with my will,
as it goes toward action, and in the silent,
sometimes hardly moving times
when something is coming near,
I want to be with those who know secret things
or else alone.

I want to be a mirror for your whole body,
and I never want to be blind,
or to be too old to hold up your old and swaying picture.

I want to unfold.

I don’t want to stay folded anywhere,
because where I am folded,
there I am a lie.
And I want my grasp of things true before you.

I want to describe myself like a painting
that I looked at closely for a long time,
like a saying that I finally understood,
like the pitcher I use every day,
like the face of my mother,
like a ship that took me safely
through the wildest storm of all.

—Rainer Maria Rilke

AFTERNOON

If You Seek Reality - Nisargadatta & Adyashanti

If you seek Reality
you must set yourself free
of all backgrounds, of all cultures,
of all patterns of thinking and feeling.

Even the idea of being a man or a woman,
or even human, should be discarded.

The Ocean of Life contains all,
not only humans.

So first abandon all self-identification,
stop thinking of
yourself as such-and-such, so-and-so,
this or that.

Abandon
all self-concern,
worry not about your welfare, material or spiritual,
abandon every desire, gross or subtle,
stop thinking of achievement of every kind.

You are complete, as you are...

Nisargadatta
https://mysticmeandering.blogspot.com/2020/01/if-you-seek-reality-nisargadatta.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+MysticMeandering+%28Mystic+Meandering%29

You have to be willing to ask, "Who am I?"
or "What am I?"
without any script or role,
without the story about
who you are and what you are,
releasing the script of what you think
your life is about.
Every sense of identity has its script - like,
"I'm a spiritual seeker."
We each have a specific role
and our stories about that role.
But our roles and stories are not
what we are...

When you start to realize what the truth is,
you wake up from the story of you.
You recognize that truth is not an abstraction,
it is not something to learn.
You discover that truth is who you
are without a script or role...

There is a state in which mind says,
"I have no idea who I am",
because it can't find the right script.
Awakening is the realization that happens
after the mind says,"I give up.
I just have no idea who I am."
When you start to understand this,
you realize that if you put down your script
and just drop the
roles for a moment,
you are not
what you have taken yourself
to be.

What you are without your role
is often assumed to be hidden.
So when you look past your character called "me"
for the truth of your being,
you may think there's someone to find who is
somewhere hidden.

Looking for the "enlightened Self"
is just another role, another script.
If you drop the script, what are you?
Enlightenment is to have no script...

Give up the script, the role, the identity -
even it is to have no identity..

Rumi ♡ Drunk

you are drunk
and i'm intoxicated
no one is around
showing us the way home

again and again
i told you
drink less
a cup or two

i know in this city
no one is sober
one is worse than the other
one is frenzied and
the other gone mad

come on my friend
step into the tavern of ruins
taste the sweetness of life
in the company of another friend

here you'll see
at every corner
someone intoxicated
and the cup-bearer
makes her rounds

i went out of my house
a drunkard came to me
someone whose glance
uncovered a hundred
houses in paradise

rocking and rolling
he was a sail
with no anchor but
he was the envy of all those sober ones
remaining on the shore

where are you from i asked
he smiled in mockery and said
one half from the east
one half from the west
one half made of water and earth
one half made of heart and soul
one half staying at the shores and
one half nesting in a pearl

i begged
take me as your friend
i am your next of kin
he said i recognize no kin
among strangers
i left my belongings and
entered this tavern
i only have a chest
full of words
but can't utter
a single one

Ghazal 2309

AFTERNOON

A Different World - Harlan Hubbard

... I myself, I require a more direct revelation,
not one that must come through so many minds
before it reaches mine.
I must have faith that I can see and hear,
that I can feel without thinking, or even trying to put into words.
It's not for anyone else, it's personal...

The interval of solitude is precious.
It is a different world and I am a different self.
I feel relieved of a responsibility that cannot be defined.
I am released from pressure, my mind is free.

Yet, would I not feel a lack of balance if I lived alone all the time?

Harlan Hubbard
1900-1988
from his journal, 1959

Harlan Hubbard was an American painter, writer and poet
who lived a very simple life riding the Missouri and Mississippi
Rivers with his wife Anna in a shanty boat, eventually
settling down in Kentucky.

With thanks to The Beauty We Love

When you find that your long cherished beliefs
do not agree with your direct experience,
trust your experience.
Prefer the truth of your experience
to your dearest delusions...

SECOND SET OF WINGS...JUST A FEW FEET AWAY FROM FIRST SET....UNUSUAL TO FIND ANY WINGS ON BEACH NOW....

As water is serene when free of ripples,
so is the mind serene when free of thought,
when it is passive and fully receptive.

When quiet, the mind reflects Reality.
When absolutely motionless,
it dissolves and only Reality remains.

The human soul is like the wild that eventually,

The human soul will engineer
situations to bypass
efforts of control.
Charles Eisenstein
http://www.unique-design.net/library/word/spirit/soul.html
(See above link for many more excellent quotes re: SOUL)

It is a moral achievement on the part of the doctor,
who ought not to let himself be repelled
by sickness and corruption.
We cannot change anything unless we accept it.
Condemnation does not liberate,
it oppresses “unprejudiced objectivity.” ..... ...

I am the oppressor of the person I condemn,
not his friend and fellow-sufferer.
I do not in the least mean to say that we must never pass judgment when we desire to help and improve.
But if the doctor wishes to help a human being
he must be able to accept him as he is.
And he can do this in reality
only when he has already seen and accepted himself
as he is.

What are we?

A fleeting, intricate presence
riding a tiny speck of water and rock,
out here in the dark,
sailing the ship of wonder
ever more deeply into the void
from which we came,
that is our true home
and mysterious destination.

AFTERNOON

look at the unity of this

look at love...
how it tangles
with the one fallen in love

look at spirit
how it fuses with earth
giving it new life

why are you so busy
with this or that or good or bad
pay attention to how things blend

why talk about all
the known and the unknown
see how unknown merges into the known

why think separately
of this life and the next
when one is born from the last

look at your heart and tongue
one feels but deaf and dumb
the other speaks in words and signs

look at water and fire
earth and wind
enemies and friends all at once

the wolf and the lamb
the lion and the deer
far away yet together

look at the unity of this
spring and winter
manifested in the equinox

you too must mingle my friends
since the earth and the sky
are mingled just for you and me

be like sugarcane
sweet yet silent
don't get mixed up with bitter words

my beloved grows
right out of my own heart
how much more union can there be?

—Rumi

****

All will come again into its strength:
the fields undivided, the waters undammed,
the trees towering and the walls built low.
And in the valleys,
people as strong and varied as the land.

And no churches where God
is imprisoned and lamented
like a trapped and wounded animal.
The houses welcoming all who knock
and a sense of boundless offering
in all relations, and in you and me.

No yearning for an afterlife,
no looking beyond,
no belittling of death,
but only longing for what belongs to us
and serving earth,
lest we remain unused.

—Ranier Maria Rilke

ORIGIN’S BREATH
FUELS AND ELIMINATES
ALL THAT IS REQUIRED
ew
4:48 AM-1/17/20

All is contained in the divine breath,
like the day in the morning dawn.
Muhyi-din Ibn 'Arabi

Ancient Wisdom
It might be
The final test of man, the narrow way
Proving him worthy of immortal life
That he should face this darkness and this death
Worthily, and renounce all easy hope,
All consolation, all but the simple smile
Upon the face of Truth…
(From the Book of Earth, an ancient Egyptian funerary text.)
https://contemplativedaybook.blogspot.com/2016/10/the-final-test.html

For silence is not God,
nor is speaking;
fasting is not God,
nor is eating;
aloneness is not God,
nor is company;
nor yet or all of such opposites.

He is hid between them,
and may not be found
by any work of your soul,
but only by love of your heart."

Discretion of Stirrings, 17th century

As a pearl is formed and its layers grow,
a rich iridescence begins to glow.
The oyster has taken what was at first an irritation
and intrusion and uses it to enrich its value.
How can you coat or frame
the changes in your life to harvest beauty,
brilliance, and wisdom?
– Susan C. Young

Take the Pearl and leave the shell behind.
Rumi

A pearl in the shell does not touch the ocean.
Be a pearl without a shell.
A mindful flooding.
A spark turned to flame.
Bird settling nest.
Love lived.

Silence of the mind which is the result of
deep understanding,
that meditation is a natural,
spontaneous meditation
which just happens....

....When you truly realize that
this lie and living is an absurdity,
then you join in the dance.

You take part in this absurdity.
The body-mind organism continues to live in the world,
but without any sense of personal doership.
The Net of Jewels
Ramesh S. Balsekar
January 16

Problems need to be dissolved, not solved,
because there is no solution.
The only way the problems get dissolved is,
as soon as they arise,
they are merely witnessed. ...

... When Truth is realized, there is neither
bondage nor liberation.

Both the worlds we dream of when asleep
and this world we dream while awake
will have disappeared into the cosmic dissolution,
which is the equivalent of
the state of deep sleep.
The Net of Jewels
Ramesh S. Balsekar
January 17

To be free of the obsession
With the future,
With the preoccupation of
What to do next, is
Most well regarded by those that
Others label as lazy.
Even if it were so,
It would be
The highest form of laziness.

In every moment
Wu Hsin is doing
Exactly what he is supposed to be
Doing.
He knows this because
He knows that
He is not
Doing anything.

Wu Hsin cannot guarantee that
Meditating will bring peace.
However, Wu Hsin can guarantee that
Doing nothing will bring you life.
Wu Hsin

I love this time-
the in-between time,
the time after all the gatherings and lights.

It is the crack between the worlds,
the place where dreaming can unfold
and then spiral into being quickly and quietly.

It is a place where, if we want them to,
solitude and silence can surround us
and the soul-hungers we have abandoned
can find us once again.

It is a time to listen deeply,
to stay with stillness
open to the impulse
to move from
the deepest part
of what we are.

AFTERNOON

How can I Drown
in
What I AM?

A Transparency that cannot be described to
or noticed by others....
...just as true death of physical form on earth
cannot be described to one
who does not Know, UnKnow…. or Remember.

∞

Nothing out there
causes a Shift within

The Within
already Is
since before time.

It matters not
where I am
if I AM
where I am.

If we do not Remember
planet-entry-Knowing
we are doomed to carry accumulated
contaminations/densities
to the next world at final flight
(or the next moment this day)

Without Raptures
there are no valleys.
All is the Same.

Creating something from Nothing.
All fits into that paradigm.

Only Life is forever.

All else passes.
Nothing to cling to.
Nothing to avoid.

Only the not passes.

The unspeakably-horrible snake
is only a stick

In God Alone
there is no struggle.
Only Being.
Creator/Creation as One.

Present in the Presence
of the single moment
Erases all else
but Nothing

Finally one does not
remember anything
but
Nothing

Nothing to teach, preach
or share.
However Transmissions
do occur
beyond the Silence.

Love Threshed me to Nothing

Consumed by its Fire
Left as an ash upon the ground
I am now
only the wind
in and of
the Breathless One
Alone

All yearning/ longing of my soul

Sated & Devoured in
the Great Silence.

This is Love
beyond all words & perception

O Joy of this life!
O Breath of this life!
You are me!
I AM You!

Beyond Joy!

Beyond Breath!

O Silent Core of Life
Sustains

The wind has died.

Where are the sails?
Is the boat an illusion, too?

How can I drown
in what I AM?

The form that was needed
is no longer necessary

Excess decays
without use and purpose.

At long last
no struggle
no pain.

Only the unknown is Known

The Known is unknown

They are the same...birthing Divine Silence.

“A person blended into God does not disappear.
He or she is just soaked with the qualities.”
Soul of Rumi

“When I remember your love,
I weep,
and when I hear people
talking of you,
something in my chest,
where nothing much happens now,
moves as in sleep.”

A man once asked Rumi:
Why is it you talk so much about silence?
His answer:
“The radiant one inside me has never said a word!”

This aloneness is worth more than a thousand lives.

Is worth more than the world and life itself.

AFTERNOON

All Rumi Quotes this Afternoon from:
Translations by Shahram Shiva
https://www.rumi.net/rumi_poems_main.htm

You think you are alive
because you breathe air?
Shame on you,
that you are alive in such a limited way.
Don't be without Love,
so you won't feel dead.
Die in Love
and stay alive forever.
Rumi

This is me: Sometimes hidden and sometimes revealed,
Sometimes a devoted Muslim, sometimes
a Hebrew and a Christian.
For me to fit inside everyone's heart,
I put on a new face everyday.
Rumi

My head is bursting
with the joy of the unknown.
My heart is expanding a thousand fold.
Every cell,
taking wings,
flies about the world.
All seek separately
the many faces of my love.
Rumi

A true Lover doesn't follow any one religion,
be sure of that.
Since in the religion of Love,
there is no irreverence or faith.
When in Love,
body, mind, heart and soul don't even exist.
Become this Love,
and you will not be separated again.
Rumi

I am so drunk
I have lost the way in
and the way out.
I have lost the earth, the moon, and the sky.
Don't put another cup of wine in my hand,
pour it in my mouth,
for I have lost the way to my mouth.
Rumi

Saith the Great Law: —
"In order to become the knower of ALL SELF (9) thou hast first of self to be the knower."
To reach the knowledge of that self,
thou hast to give up Self to Non-Self,
Being to Non-Being,
and then thou canst repose
between the wings of the GREAT BIRD.

Aye, sweet is rest between the wings
of that which is not born, nor dies,
but is the AUM (10) throughout eternal ages (11).
Best ride the Bird of Life,
if thou would'st know (12).

I sipped some of love's sweet wine,
and now I am ill.
My body aches,
my fever is high.
They called in the doctor and he said,
drink this tea!
Ok, time to drink this tea.
He said,
Take these pills!
Ok, time to take these pills.
The doctor said,
And get rid of the sweet wine of love's lips!
Ok, time to get rid of the doctor.

Don't move.
Just die over and over.

Don't anticipate.
Nothing can save you now,
because this is your last moment.

Not even enlightenment will help you now,
because you have no other moments.

With no future, be true to yourself

It is not a sin to be happy
December 10, 2019
by Paulo Coelho

“We must care for our body. It is the temple of the Holy Spirit, and deserves our respect and affection.
We must make the best use of our time.
We must fight for our dreams,
and concentrate our efforts to that end.

But we must not forget that life
is made up of small pleasures.
They were placed here to encourage us,
assist us in our search,
and provide moments of surcease
from our daily battles.

It is not a sin to be happy.

There is nothing wrong in
-from time to time-
breaking certain rules regarding diet,
sleep and happiness.

Do not criticize yourself if
-once in a while-
you waste your time on trifles.

These are the small pleasures that stimulate us.

The Traveler
- David-Neel and Lama Yongden

The traveler who finds his road blocked by a river will use
a raft to reach the opposite shore,
but, this shore, once reached,
he will not take the raft on his shoulders
while continuing his journey.

He will abandon it as something
which has become useless.

The raft represents the different kinds of methods, intellectual training, or moral discipline,
which are available as means to
bring the seeker of liberation
to the "other shore."

On this shore,
both have lost their value;
they bear no relation to the conditions
existing on the "other shore" and,
like the raft in the parable,
they are only a useless burden...

To go beyond virtue and vice, opinions and beliefs,
is to go beyond the mental constructions
which are built by the mind, unceasingly,
and to recognize,
by transcendent insight,
that they are void of reality.

It is also to recognize,
by transcendent insight,
that which has been imagined as practicing virtue,
surrendering to vice,
as holding opinions and elaborating theories,
as traveling towards a goal and reaching a goal,
is nothing but
an inconsistent phantom,
devoid of reality.

AFTERNOON

A simple walk on the beach
becomes an experience of cosmic joy
and at the same time,
remains just a simple walk on the beach.

I’m just little me,
and yet also I am the beach
and the shells
and the ocean
and the horizon.

Nothing has changed
and yet everything has changed.

I am walking through me.

“I” has been assimilated
by the totality
and I have assimilated the totality
and it’s just very amazing
and yet totally ordinary.

Consciousness is walking
through consciousness.
It’s so obvious.
How could I have missed it before?
– Verse 15 Pondering, p 113

WELL WORTH THE SATURATION!

Power of the Word,
- that we can one day find anew

You all know the wonderful tales where the magician or the sorceress only has to utter a few words to conjure up a castle, or tables covered with the most delectable dishes,
or
a great bird on which to travel through space
and so forth.

These stories are not pure inventions,
they have meaning –
they remind us of a time long ago
when humans possessed the magic word.
But little by little,
as they sunk down into matter,
humans lost their power over it,
and were no longer able to master it.

Every day, people must grapple with matter
so as to shape it, draw subsistence from it,
find shelter and make the objects they need,
and it constantly offers up resistance.

In reality,
the power of the Word
has not been definitively taken away from humans,
and they are capable of finding it again,
provided they undertake
a great work of inner transformation.

We can define the Word
as the synthesis of all expressions of psychic life.

This work of transformation therefore begins with the mastery of thoughts, feelings and desires.
Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov

Wednesday, December 11, 2019

Even if human beings aren’t aware of it,
all of them come to earth with the imprints
of what they experienced in the heavenly regions with God.
This life is recorded within them as an indelible memory, which is why they sometimes feel nostalgia for it.

Sometimes, an encounter, a face, a reading, a landscape,
an image, or music awakens a distant memory within them.
They again experience a few moments of paradise, they feel inhabited by peace and light.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t last;
and when the time comes to resume their daily activities, they fail to realize that there is something
they could do to retain these states,
and they even forget them.

Far from God, far from the spiritual sun,
humans gradually lose every opportunity to live and manifest themselves with joy, love and freedom.

They could very easily lead their earthly lives and fulfill their obligations and still maintain their bond with him.

But this obviously requires a lot of vigilance and,
when they feel they are drifting away,
they must do everything to find their way back.

Randall Friend - An overwhelming sense of Love

The love felt here is overwhelming.
For so many years I struggled and searched -
mostly within the confines of an individual existence.

It is impossible to find the answer you seek
as long as you consider
yourself an individual existence.

My writing is due to an overwhelming sense of Love -
I totally understand where you're coming from.
My impulse to write is due to this love -
this sense that if you could just realize
that your existence isn't separate and transient -
you would see that there is nothing to worry about.

You don't have to suffer.
Suffering is only in the mind.

WHAT you are is Life, Existence itself.
Consciousness arises, and we get sucked into that. Therefore we take ourselves
as the object of Consciousness -
which is actually totally normal,
yet it isn't true.

There is one Existence - one "thing" from which all arises. And you are THAT.
What else could you be?

Consciousness arises like a dream -
and you're there, facing the world.
But that is what you've been led to believe.

Life, the Universe, Brahman,
whatever you want to call it - is dreaming.
It is aware of itself through this dream we call "I".
The true "I" is Life -
aware of itself through this dream.

Wake up - existence isn't transient.
You exist.
This dream is your way of knowing yourself.
And when that dream ends, nothing is lost.
You still exist.

A cigar is slowly burning,
and a glass of bourbon is settling.
These experiences have value -
yet they are not ultimately real.

YOU are real. That's it.

A Sense that Worded after Unexpected Joyful Meeting with this Amazing Friend

There is a force within that gives you life.
Seek that.
– Rumi

I sail with you on the ocean of my dreams
to a far away distant Place of great beauty and tranquillity.
where suffering and pain do not exist,
where we give praises for our joy and happiness,
where our Love intertwines with Love for all things.
– Rumi

Everything you see has its roots in the unseen world.
The forms may change,
yet the essence remains the same.
Every wonderful sight will vanish,
every sweet word will fade,
But do not be disheartened,
The source they come from is eternal, growing,
Branching out, giving new life and new joy. ....

....Why do you weep?
The source is within you
And this whole world is springing up from it.
-Rumi

You are the Essence of the Essence,
The intoxication of Love.
I long to sing Your Praises.
– Rumi

5:17 AM--7/30/19

Listen!
Clam up your mouth and be silent like an oyster shell,
for that tongue of yours is the enemy of the soul,
my friend.
When the lips are silent,
the heart has a hundred tongues.
Rumi

In every breath

In every breath
if you’re the center
of your own desires
you’ll lose the grace
of your beloved
but if in every breath
you blow away
your self claim
the ecstasy of love
will soon arrive
in every breath

if you’re the center
of your own thoughts
the sadness of autumn
will fall on you

but if in every breath
you strip naked
just like a winter
the joy of spring
will grow from within

all your impatience
comes from the push
for gain of patience
let go of the effort
and peace will arrive
all your unfulfilled desires
are from your greed
for gain of fulfillments
let go of them all
and they will be sent as gifts

fall in love with
the agony of love
not the ecstasy
then the beloved
will fall in love with you
Rumi
Translation by Nader Khalili
“Rumi, Fountain of Fire”
Cal-Earth Press, 1994
https://razarumi.wordpress.com/documents-archive/in-every-breath/

There is a place born of silence
A place where the whispers of the heart arise.
There is a place where voices sing your beauty
A place where every breath
carves your image
in my soul.
Rumi

A pearl in the shell does not touch the ocean.
Be a pearl without a shell...
a mindful flooding.
a spark turned to flame.
bird settling nest.
love lived―
Rumi

I closed my mouth
and spoke to you in a hundred silent ways.
― Rumi

Everyone is so afraid of death,
but the real sufis just laugh:
nothing tyrannizes their hearts.
What strikes the oyster shell
does not damage the pearl.
- Rumi

AFTERNOON

The parenthesis in which we live consists of the degree of mental or material limitation that we come under through the universal belief in two powers. Removing the parenthesis
means unseeing the human picture and becoming
consciously aware of our spiritual Selfhood.

A PARENTHESIS IN ETERNITY
~Joel S Goldsmith
http://www.iwso.org/thedailylesson.htm

A man once asked Rumi,
"Why is it you talk so much about silence?"
His answer:
"The radiant one inside me has never said a word.”

Monday, July 22, 2019

In his dialogue 'the Banquet ',
Plato relates the myth of the androgyne.

In the beginning, human beings had both male and female organs,
they were all both male and female,
and this double nature gave them capacities
such that the gods ended up feeling threatened.

To weaken them, Zeus, king of the gods, decided to cut them in half,
and from then on there were men and there were women.
This myth stresses that human beings' power
came from the fact they had both male and female organs.
But despite this kind of mutilation,
humans nevertheless possess the two principles physically.

Yes, in their mouth:
their tongue is the masculine principle,
their two lips are the feminine principle,
and together they create a child: speech.

Speech gives them immense power.
Sometimes, just a few words are needed
to bring them the same results material means would.
Through speech they create and destroy,
gather together and separate,
restore peace or trigger war,
bring healing or disease.

Each one of you must be aware and careful
of the words you say.
Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov
