silent heart

right and wrong
good and bad 
me and you
why hold onto these things 
as if they have some importance 
for in the heart 
there are no such superimpositions
and that which seems so very 
real in mind 
vanishes as if it never was 
these boundaries that are held 
let them fall away now 
let them pass away 
and live what is here freely
that is not of 
me, you or i
but of silence 
and sweet purity
let this ring in you 
let this stillness
become you
no more struggling to 
understand
for this is not the way
here it is, my friend
empty 
full
life...

  5. namaste, Yes, this is the house i am in for a bit longer .. it is my son's dad and his wife's house (we have remained friends over the years). They are off to Hawaii and asked that i stay to water the plants as they know i have always loved this view here.. just happened to be here at the right time (it has been a great joy for sure)... Mind can be all over the map for awhile as it clears... can speak to this from direct experience... continue on with steady determination no matter mind, it will continue to deepen, shift and blow out... shanti om
