this purity is running

i prayed for the one 

oh love 

i have 

and i have sat amongst the 

stone objects of death 

that rest above the ground 

where the rains come 

and the sky opens with sun

and the birds fly

and the earth is sharp with 

it's rich, acrid scents 

i have sat there for many hours on

end with this death thing 

then i was deeply driven to 

sit and sit and sit some more 

for hours on end 

with the mind looking, looking 

oh then my friend how the world 

began to explode in great uprisings 

in visions, phenomena and colorful

happenings 

and horrors too

oh love, i cannot tell you of it 

all, but it does not matter now 

for the mind is quietening

and the time that i lived that way 

is coming to a close 

now i write to say continue on

if you are an ascetic inside 

because you will find it there 

in the heart 

this quietude 

oh it seems you go to so many 

places in mind and body and 

in the world 

you just come back right here 

what a journey dear souls!

stay present now 

stay with what is centering 

to your spirit 

because it will keep coming 

to a circle and a circle 

and a eating of the snakes tail

and then no more of that 

ill-usion

love,

have you been still today?

for the shadows are fleeing fast 

and freedom waits on the horizon!

the night is lifting and i cannot see 

the way back to the world 

where the men resonate of duality 

i saw Virgin Mary many times 

i remember now only

this purity is running into the veins 

and finding it's life there 

and i remember now how i saw 

those jewels on fire with light 

those jewels so heart wrenchingly

beautiful 

and not of this world 

but these beautiful gems they arise 

from a bed of silence 

and this silence friends is the 

best  of the best jewel

the chudamani

the jewel of the heart
