Guru

the Guru is the light that shines 

in body as the heart

not to be seen as separate 

from yourself 

the same within you 

is Guru

for the Guru

the way is always clear

of obstacles 

as obstacles are not real 

but made of thoughts that come and go

how much reality does this have?

for the Guru

the mind does not exist

it never has 

it was simply a dream 

that carries nothing of substance

and never will

for the Guru 

the present is all that exists 

unburdened by thought 

without a personal story covering it over 

this has no reality

to the one 

resting in truth

for the Guru

the mystery is the norm

it is not filled with awe 

or anything extraordinary

this is what remains

simply life in it's pure form

not anything else

for the Guru

there is no goal 

what is here is full and complete

nothing added

nothing taken away

no one remains to

strive for anything 

just is 

simple 

for the Guru

energy of emotion lives for the moment

only

it does not go on and on

in waves to start up again

and again

when it is gone 

it is finished 

done

not to return

this is all

for the Guru

the body simply moves 

in accordance with shakti

no matter this play

of outer appearance 

the still mind

does not change ever 

for the Guru
the absolute is all that exists
there is nothing other
never changing
never dying away
only this


for the Guru
clarity is eternally present
seeing without seeing
hearing without hearing
living and breathing
in the heart
is this light
within truth
always

for the Guru
there are no devotees
only one undivided essence lives
in reality
yet grace allows for those seeking
a way out
to be purified by this light
that is truly the same SELF


for the Guru
what comes, comes
what goes, goes
no one is there to attach to the movement
or create a story around it..
never is there anything changing
in this reality
that is one

for the Guru
the many are a dream
and unreal as mist on the water
it is compassion that sees one
out of suffering
if one is sincere
to rest within this same light
as truth
