when mental waves die
what is known is that
Kali is the *all*
the seen and the unseen
Kali is the *all*
the seen and the unseen
the pure life force
and is not something to be seen outside
she is the heart of hearts
indeed
she is the center of the wheel
and the wheel
and the whole thing
she is not to be left out of the world
or the mind
or the single essence
how can this be?
when her energy is in all hearts
and in all things
and there cannot be life without it
she is the moon in fullness
and in shadow
she is the moon on the head of shiva
and the moon in the heaven
and the moon in the rising of truth
like a moon she rises and rises
to be not hidden any longer
away from souls that sleep
and he will wake then and know her
as being his own soul
that has no name or face
but is undressed and perfect
glowing in the heart
as his own soul
when mental waves die
life is not as it was thought
a life that has within it a burden
of *doing*
this is not right at all, dear souls
it is like carrying a heavy sack on
your back that is not needed
so cast it down and let the mind be
naked
without this heaviness
then it will be open and free
like God is
he knows what to do
and he will do it
and do it rightly
for he is pure intelligence
know this friend
and be of good heart
and be of clarity
and stillness
when mental waves die
there is nothing that needs protection
for what and who is needing protection?
this is very false indeed
there is not anything to fear when the heart
is open and rejoicing in the one
what could be lost?
if one knows well that he is not a body or
a mind
and that all comes from the
very same source
very same source
which can never, ever die
what is there to fear?
when mental waves die
the time of sorrow dissolves
like a wave into the ocean
but the ocean never knew of the wave
that felt itself apart
not ever
because the ocean is always as one
and knows this well
so what else is there to know?
when mental waves die
Christ is not understood any more
as a story that is to be inspiring or
feared
he is enlivened as truth in the heart
and is known as the source from which
all springs
not a story of a persona that came to do this
or that
he is understood as a one that pointed the way
to the heart
which is only grace working to bring the shadows
down
and lay to rest the motion of thought
which is dark truly
as it calls the soul to be apart from the light
which is always and forever here
Death to the mental waves! No more doing ! Glory to Kali!

Namaste, Very stilling. Thank you. OM shanti
ReplyDeleteNamaste, always appreciate the comments… indeed, may stillness reign.. shanti om
ReplyDeleteNamaste Guru Siddhananda,
ReplyDeleteThank you for pointing the way to the stillness that knows no fear. In periods when it feels expanded, it is easy to see stillness and movement as one. Difficult to see mental waves being one and the same as the ocean when identified with it. So thank you for pointing to the way of the heart.

namaste, when thoughts are in motion, it can be all consuming -- there cannot be clarity this way… it is only within stillness that clarity arises, and only in stillness can realization of the SELF be … not with intellectual understanding, insights and all of that will it come, not ever -- may stillness reign in your life .. shanti om
ReplyDeleteNamaste Guru Siddhananda,
