stillness..

the peaceful one
is the most loved in heaven and on earth
as this one has left the world on the shore
and sank deep inside the sea of knowledge
to be unveiled of all that is illusive in nature

the peaceful one
knows this world to be a dream
like a mirage in the desert
and has found the substance and
remains there ..
with a still mind
free of attachments and aversions

the peaceful one
is a light unto himself
he does not throw out the world
like a useless thing
he simply enjoys it for the mystery that it is
as it unfolds in all it's wonderment...

the peaceful one
is the light of all
this is not anything special
it is not anything better or worse
just what remains within all hearts
when the mind moves no more..

the peaceful one
is the shiv nature
but not like a god or a deity
just pure consciousness
the substance or ground of being
simply resting within the pure moment
as it is

the peaceful one
has not gained anything *new*
by coming into truth
it is there always
underneath the shadow mind
that is truly no-thing
it is not newly discovered like an object
it is eternal and ever-present

the peaceful one
lets the world be and do it's dance
and stays still within peace
through all the changes of the externals
living in the heart
as a  sage of beautitude
and undying stillness
