A Most Exquisite "Possession"
Chuck Surface

At first, before years had passed,
And pundits brought advaitic literature,
And he learned the language of nonduality,
Ramana referred to his condition,
Using a Tamil word, "avesam"...
Meaning... "Possession".

At first, before years had passed,
And pundits brought advaitic literature,
And he learned the language of nonduality,
Ramana referred to his condition,
Using a Tamil word, "avesam"...
Meaning... "Possession".
"Something" had become an aspect,
Of his ongoing experience of being,
"Something" not previously so;
Within... felt... visceral... palpable,
An experiential "Presence" of...
The Self?
God?
The Beloved?
The Lord?
In any case...
A most Wonderful "Possession".

He spoke then, not in abstractions,
Not in nondual terminology,
Of a conceptual framework of "reality",
But pointed to Direct Experience,
To a "Felt Sense", Within...
A most Extraordinary "Possession".

Something was there which had not been,
In his ongoing experience of being,
Now effortlessly ever present,
Uncaused, untouched, unmoved,
By the vicissitudes of conditionality.
A most Sublime "Possession".

The Beloved is,
Before the duality of She and I,
But She is, as well, this duality,
In which I revel in embodiment,
Illumined with the Benediction of...
A most... Exquisite... "Possession".
