the taste of spirit

i need to say that you have been far 

too long in the enclosure of mind 

and you are listening to that message 

but that is like a dream that tastes 

bitter in the end 

because you are so used to this taste of 

mental happenings 

you go back there for more 

my dear in this going back, you miss

the taste of spirit 

so unburdened in it's flavor that it is 

missed by your tongue 

it tastes completely different from mind 

it is like a honey flavor, scented with 

heart 

it saturates the mind, senses and every 

body part with light 

it saturates the action with grace so 

that movement is spontaneous 

and not of *doing* or *calculating*

it saturates the vision with non-dual beauty 

and rich feeling that all is well and complete 

it does not taste like mind, thoughts, projections, 

activity of ego which is flavorless truly 

in comparison 

as if you might see a picture of a beautiful

sunset in a book 

and then to see those lively colors against the sky

heaven feeling and ethereal with silhouettes of clouds

of different hues and light breaking through the whole 

thing 

so very much filled with the *flavor* of life true 

if you are still

you can feel all of nature in you 

the oceans and the seas and the mist rising 

you can feel the rains pure and refreshing

you can feel the earth with it's nutrition and 

bedding made for the seedlings to rise up

you can feel the blossom that flowers on the branch

and brings such beautiful color of such varieties 

and offerings 

you can feel the mountains with ice and snow and cooling 

energy therein

you can feel the colorful leaves in autumn
and the crisp coming of wind and rains 

and winter with life that lays dormant, sitting, waiting 

for it's time to blossom

oh souls, can you feel it in you?

it is in your blood and your heart 

because you are made the same as all

can you feel it in you right now?

the sun has risen this evening 

though the night is dark 

it has risen up like a light so full and 

with light extending outward 

it cannot go to sleep, the sun 

it loves the moon always and finds it's alignment

there and with the earth 

in different ways and different dances it works 

together, harmonious with the planets 

and the stars too

they align like a beautiful dance that sends different 

energies to the earth 

and brings messages of different astrologies that are like 

the various personalities for the soul,

various energetic patterns of the soul 

like all things that are earthly/ethereal and of life 

there are various different energetic patterns that 

play out to form a specific presence

or a life-form 

but inside where it is dark and pure and real and 

perfect, there lives a nature that is pattern-less

it is the origin of all the playing out in the universe 

it is shed of patterns, colors and happenings 

it is not touched by anything ever 

it is like a heart in it's original nature 

it is like God in it's primal nature 

it is like kali in her primal nature 

it is like Shiva as he is 

sinless 

unborn 

kept pure always
