a fresh field



who loves me (the pure soul)?
the one who does, he is quiet inside
and not projecting into the next moment
or fretting over the past...
he is still inside...
see, this is the utmost sacrifice, prayer, yoga,
satsang,
mantra, devotion, puja, worship, surrender...
because when the mind is still these energies
are silenced as well...
they are not in motion anymore...
they are like the fuel that is burned in the fires
of purification and what remains is not about
anything that mind can generate...
so my friends that seek, please take a breath
and be quiet, not lost all your imaginings, doubts
and thoughts...
for the God source is the most knowing and gives *potential*
for thoughts to be, but thoughts are like a ray in
relation to the source, not the truth....
God source is the pure intelligent ONE
how can a ray or a fleeting thought compare to
this?
and the God source is what is to be trusted entirely...
not a fleeting thought that has no true
substance of love, light, purity and peace eternal
within it....
may this be seen and lived my friends of heart...
when God source is entered into without leaving
a residue of a persona... all moves in accordance
with divine law without interruption ....
this means that what is taking place is always right
and well,
completely balanced -- and though outwardly the action
may appear ordinary, the mind is still, one-pointed --
completely absorbed in the moment at hand, and nothing
else exists --
within this stillness, no more energies of mind (karma) are created
to bring sorrow to the soul --
this is purity
it is a fresh field where the meeting is not of two, but always ONE
there is nothing divided any longer...
this fresh field is pure potentiality --
the mind cannot be present there or else this moment becomes something
else entirely -- it becomes a creation of mind, a story.. an illusion...
but, oh souls how the God source is filled with compassion and gives
entirely of itself and offers yet another chance to gain it's grace
by opening the heart and becoming united with it's love and light and
glory....
....again and again and again... it offers this grace...
*NOW* my friends there is yet another chance to settle down into yourself
and not be stirred by every passing thought, whim or memory...
how these energies are like water that runs and drips down and dies away
never to be caught....
one can NEVER find beauty and peace there ...
come now... do not be stirred by this illusive playing out, but be stirred
by your soul that speaks clearly to you -- you are perfect in spirit, true and
sturdy inside and not of these boxes you define yourself by ...
the body is not you --
the thoughts are not you...
the qualities are not you...
you are ONE and without these transient happenings
come now --
live the life that you are called to --
and do not delay ...
come now
be still and allow what is true to rise and be
the center
this beautiful atman -- which is what you are in reality
minus what you *think you are*...
come now
be still...

allah


allah, seated in the heart
as non-dual perfection
living in sinless beauty that shines 
as all
forsaken of the world 
and without impurities 
within timelessness and joy
eternal

allah, measured only by 
love and light 
perfect in silence 
perfect in calm presence 
stainless 
and shed of coverings 
one 

allah, pure spirit
present in equal quantities unto all
not of this world and not 
of a speck of darkness
untainted
as a light unto itself 
mysterious 

allah, messenger of joy
thou comes to the world and 
speaks in silent beauty
to what is real 
and what lies beyond the desiring mind 
as a light full and glorious 
thou comes to the world 
holding up the ones that are sincere 
and holding up the ones that are 
not sincere 
and holding all up as one heart 
holding those that walk in light 
and those that walk in shadow 
holding all up as one heart 
holding those that are as saints 
and those that are as sinners 
holding all up as one heart 
holding the rising of creation and 
holding the decay and death
holding all up as one heart 
holding the majestic moon that 
shines 
and the sun too and the still waters 
and moving tides 
and the creatures that crawl and fly 
and swim and play
and the seasons that change and bring 
such beautiful wonders in their wake
such as the opening of buds and flowering 
of color and life 
and deep mysterious darkness and changing 
shadows and light 
that abound for all to enjoy
holding all up as one heart 

allah, messiah to the soul that sleeps 
and lifter of shadow 
glory is your name 
glory is your beautiful presence 
that lives in all hearts 

breathe this spirit that lives dear seekers 
and feel it's perfect breath in 
your breath and feel it's perfect 
heart in your heart 
as one you will be then 
not as two 
for this is not real like a ray extends 
from the source (the sun) 
so your being is not separate 
and manifests from the source 
and is one unto it always 
may this blessing abound in your soul
and may you drink heartily from it's wealth
as a popper that comes to undress his 
rags and throw them in the river 
to find then that he is always as a lord 
of himself 
and not at all wanting or desiring to be 
something better 
how it is found then that all is one heart 
nothing missing ever 
not for an instant 
what a blessing 
allah
freedom incarnate 

om shanti

oh souls


when I the (pure soul) made you dear
I made you like me
I made you like mountains majestic
and running clear waters
and deep oceans of life so rich
and doves lit on the branches cooing
as night falls black and mysterious
I made you still
yes my dear
and how did you come out of this
beauty of all?
did you go to the mind to find the answers?
did you go to thoughts to find the source?
did you go to the body to find peace everlasting?
did you go to the objects to seek love that is pure?
did you go to the heavens to find your God?
did you go to the mountains to find divine knowledge?
and dear,
did you find yourself settled and still there?
no my friend
freedom is not to be found in these things
or in these energies that move
I made you still like me
my soul is your soul
my heart is your heart
my life is your life
and this is the truth
because life is not divided in anything or anywhere
so here my love
I want you to be free
go inside yourself and live in the heart like me
there Truth ignites
and the shadows rise no more
oh souls
be still and know

unshaken




the nuns were so beautiful
when in deep contemplation or lost to the fires of love
or drowned in the light of God
or present in the purity of realization
they were strong to go through such austerities
of meager quarters and having little to no fruits of the world to enjoy
and many underwent severe illnesses,
and pain and let God purify the mind through these experiences
not shaken inside by what was happening to the form
how this is so beautiful

the sage




the sage 
is free of unrest 
he is unburdened like shiva
he is identical to the absolute
he is free of pride and lust 
he bears no mark of ignorance 
such as attachment to form and
intellect
he is rinsed clean of sin
he is a light unto himself
he is a prince of peace 
he is a bright glow
for humanity
he may sit on a tiger skin
or a throne 
or live in the streets 
as a homeless one
and remains unblemished
as his consciousness 
is changeless
and not affected by externals
he sees the world of many
but still his consciousness
is single 
always within shiva 
he has no relationship 
to any 
as he is completely alone
within himself
he is in stillness always
without ups 
and downs of the world
steady as the mountain range
fresh as the rains that come 
to a parched land 
swept clean of stories
of me and mine
shorn of coverings of identifications
he may seat himself in the lotus 
position on the earth 
or walk in the crowded cities
he may wear ordinary clothes 
or nothing at all
he may speak eloquent words 
or be in silence
he may sit by the waters 
and sleep in the deep forests 
with the creatures 
or live in an ordinary home 
he may be outgoing 
or quiet in nature
he may be uncomely
or wear a beautiful face 
he may embody a fine form
or be bent with age
and decrepitude
he remains unattached
and eternally free
of these appearances
he will not be comprehended
by those in mundane mind 
his divine state will be 
recognized only by those that 
are liberated 
as this is the same 
consciousness always 
o ne 
not high
not low 
not anything 
in between
zero
without qualities
what remains when 
the mind falls away
this is the sage

lose today



tell me friend
have you loved well?
you know I (the pure soul)
loves you well
and when I love you
I say to you be still
I say to you be quiet
I say to you make your
life wondrous
I say to you make your life
pristine inside
you settle for things seen by
the eyes and heard by the ears
and felt by the hands
but souls, this is only the
surface reality
not the truth
for under this show lies
something more precious
then all the things taken
in and collected
by the senses
under this show lies
that which does not die away
this substance
is the real-ity
it makes the *other* which
is thought, attachment and conditionings
paltry at best
which does not mean what is loved
in duality is to be thrown away
not by any means
but that which is attached to
is where the problem lies
because this is what makes
mind into a personal reality
in the scriptures it says
mind is never yours
yes it states this
mind is just an empty playing
out energy/shakti
movement, not reality
so why put your attention
so strongly there
why?
when you place your attention
in the heart
then you lose the grasp
on mind
eventually the world dies away
and quietude is uncovered
then life is One
One
One
so my friends
lose today
lose  the *me and mine* mentality
lose the, our, this, that, he, she, they,
here, there, yesterday, tomorrow, what I did,
what I didn't do, what I should do,
what I,  I,  I
then you lose to gain
then you lose
that which makes your life limited
my friends
forget your little world
be this love that isOne
single
0
lose today
be still

In you



in you
my friend
is Life
In you is love undivided
love that is like God
love not of some-Thing
love not small and divisionary
love not set high one day
and low another
love not attached to a sense object
love not attached
to certain qualities or experiences
love not made of thought waves
love not laced with pleasure
and pain
love not laced with mind play
love not laced with sensual experience
love not laced with fear of something leaving
love not laced with fear of something coming
love not laced with the sting of change
love not laced with projections
love not laced with me and mine mentality
love not laced with ownership
love not laced with i am here
and you are there
and I am having this experience
and you that
love not laced with expectation
love not laced with a story line
love not laced with knowledge
that is relative
love not laced with knowledge
that is heavy with thought
love not laced with knowledge
that comes from me experiences
love not laced with knowledge
that comes from body form confinement
love not laced with knowledge
that comes from body form desires
love not laced with knowledge
that comes from body form feelings of lack
love not laced with knowledge
that comes from body form graspings
love that is singular and pure
is what is in you
love that sheds only
peace, joy, happiness
knowledge that is not made of
anything that mind knows
or anything that mind feels
or anything that mind desires
or hopes or prays for
knowledge that comes when all
that is made of "other" melts away
knowledge that remains
when the arduousness of sadhana
completes itself
then, then
what is uncovered is True knowledge
the perfect heart
the single glow of Atman
the single essence
that is the background for this
mayaic play that consumes so much
now beautiful ones,
can you really put your efforts
into this search?
oh souls,
you must if you are sincere
you must if you are desirous of completion
you must if you are desirous of peace
and then you will know yourself
oh souls,
how can one live without knowing yourself?
come now
you are true inside
come and let God be the one to lead you to yourself
not ego
never, never
only God which is pure awareness
pure intelligence
pure beauty
Shiva
Shiva
and nothing more or less
