an auspicious day

what an auspicious day
the birth of Guru
she came to be out of suffering
and worked thru the conditionings of mind
to lay them to rest
she came to be free, yes
but she came to be a light to humanity
and set those souls that are desiring of freedom
on the waters of truth
to be awakened in themselves to the heart
the light, the one

when i first met her
she seemed so ordinary in one sense
and yet so much the mystic and saint on the other
this is what drew me to her
as i could sit and laugh like a friend with her
but yet there was something else, so very potent
that came through in the most ordinary moments
and this is called grace
it cuts thru the false like a knife
and slices and dices the persona to bits
this is no joke my friends
one can be anywhere and at anytime
doing absolutely anything and this comes
this bursting apart of the person you thought
you were
and then an entirely different reality opens
in which one is *purely present*
and nothing else exists
time does not exist
as so many times
we can be driving and it may seem like
we were driving for lifetimes, but we only went
a few miles (this happened the other day when driving with Guru)
or a day will feel like seconds or like it never happened

i will say, this form has not always been well
it has had many illnesses that came in which i
i did not come back quickly by any means
but since coming under the halo of Guru
the body heals as mind dissolves …
which does not mean that the body will not have it's
ailments no matter what
but as the knots are freed, so is the body focus
which brings a loosening on every level
this is what has come here …
i know for sure Guru has saved my life and i
will not deny it …
she knows and i know …
but there is no harboring of *i did this* and
*you owe that*….
Guru just is .. timeless and present in all moments
and this leaves no residue of what just took place
but the grace is here and flows without end
how it is so present in all moments
and is felt on every level --
even in the hardest times..
and the stillness that *is* goes without saying
it would have never been known without
Guru's blessing and gracious presence

friends of heart
be well this day and rejoice in the grace that has come
in your life
if you are blessed to be under the halo of Guru
or if you are blessed to simply have a form that will
give the opportunity to go forward and learn
life lessons
than be grateful and love this moment
it is here now
and what is needed will indeed come to your life
if you are open
although it will not be what you *think* it is
(it will be better in the end)
and ego may not like it, but trust in this
if your heart is sincere and you move forward
it will be the best blessing and will open you to
grace
which will in time bring stillness
beauty and peace
there is nothing that has more worth
not in this life or the next …

great day and om
