love invites you

As she always does
Love invites you into her sweet scented room,
Holds your hands, looks deep into your eyes
before she vanishes into you. 
For the union to be total and full and natural
make sure to leave your baggage
outside the door.

concrete roads


If you want 
light to penetrate you
and dispel your illusion,
stay open and relaxed.
See how the grass grows
through the tiny cracks
in the .

from the Ego's side

From the ego's side
awakening to your true fragrance
is a shocking news because it means
the deconstructive process of the known
and the tearing down of the old structure

Your authenticity

Your  authenticity
Begins to diminish the minute
You start thinking
Because thought has no ground in reality.
After all
The truth of who you are
Cannot be pierced by the mind.
 And your essence is located far beyond
 your mind’s fantasy.

What really wants to dance and sing

What is wanting to be touched,
And to be tasted and felt: -
what really wants to dance
and sing,
you would not know
Until you stop and  listen
With all your being.

We're doing it again

We
are  meeting
and doing  it again and again.
This love.
What else is there
to do
in this moment?
all else have already
been taken.

your true face

Don’t ever
Withdraw from here, dear one
the wind keeps blowing and
The river keeps flowing
anyway.

Leave the voice in your past  journey and
Throw yourself at the one
Who wants to see your
True face

Claim nothing as yours

Like a vast golden field of wheat
On which a soft light falls,
Claim nothing as yours
Even your most treasured item
In your safe is not yours because
You are deeper, vaster and
more precious than that.

overwatering your cabbage

By worrying too much,
by thinking too much,
you are overwatering your cabbage
Stop and look at the vast space around you
and the space inside you.
Life enjoys the simplicity
of going for a walk, "chopping wood
and carrying water",
doing the dishes
and cooking dinner.
Here you are simply
being fully present,
making love to the beloved.

ripples

Like
Pebbles
We throw
 In the ocean,
Words we utter
Or whisper
Can make ripples
And waves.

Because you are here

The heart is  deeply moved and
 Immensely touched by your beauty.
 Because you are here,
The world is kinder, more serene and
 more understanding.

sea of brilliance

all these years
I have known you,
 beloved presence,
 I have not seen any part of you that
Needs improvement nor amendment
All I have seen is
 the sea of brilliance  gurgling joyously,
inviting you to fully merge with it.

key into your life's mystery

how many times have you duplicated the key to your house
because you've lost the original one? But you know, dear heart?
The is never missing because it is built inside you. 
Beloved is never lost. You can tell by her perfume when you get closer. And remember, she enjoys burying her sweet face in your chest. And some time she loves playing hide and seek with you because she loves you too much. It is up to you, my friend, to know where to look and see.

drop of water

When a drop of water met
the soil 
what energy was released?
what message was conveyed?
for no particular reason,
Stay in the terrain of love, my friend.
Stay here.
Your beauty can be accessed
your heart can be touched from any
direction.

center of your life

Sometimes it happens this way
when you predict least;
You wake up one morning and see with so much clarity
The beauty you have been searching  all your life
Explodes and takes you over.
Then worry says at the top of her voice:
"Oh, this is too much for you.
and your are too small to hold it"
Worry cannot realize that
there is nothing you cannot handle
from the center of your life.

morning wanderer

I was a wanderer  in your neighborhood
this morning.
I stopped to knock on your door
because
The light within  you
needs activation.


capacity to embrace everything

Your heart is open and big means
you have the capacity to embrace everything
and everyone that dances your way
without labeling or judging.

dazzling presence

Oh this sweet perfume!
This dazzling presence dwelling
in the deep well of my core -
Whoever has tasted you
whoever has smelled you
whoever has drank you
wants to come back for more.

growing up as humans

This growing up as humans means also includes picking up  a thick dust of conditionings.  If we're lucky,  we arrive sooner or later, at the point where we can no longer bear the burden. That means the time  has come to open our eyes and see what really matters most.  Even after we have done that we still  find some pockets in side us that are too thick to be pierced by light, too dense to be penetrated with love, hiding in the basement of our awareness.  This clearly indicates that  we have not fully opened up yet, not totally surrendered to what is here. Now be  a sunflower, my friend,  that stands  in the sun  and dances fearlessly.

awakening of the dreaming sun

When we  are  present
we can't find much to talk about
or to fear
because our stories dissolve completely
and we cannot find anyone or anything to blame any more
only a vast field of aliveness
opens up before us.
This is called the awakening of the
dreaming sun

laws of the opposites

We witness every day how the world operates within the confines of the laws of the opposites  such as male and female, heaven and hell, right and wrong, death and birth.  We see how the male energy craves to dissolve into  the female energy or vice versa  and how the cloud desires to vanish into the sun. when we see it with the eyes of God, it is not just the male and the female energy being drawn to each other for a momentarily gratification. it is rather the Nafs (spirit) within them constantly longing and burning to join and reunite with itself  and expand into itself rising beyond the ideas of forms.  This is  life’s way of ending separation and the world of  duality.

you contain everything

Whatever you are thinking,
whatever emotions you're experiencing
in this moment;
I want you to remember that
your fragrance, from the sky
to the ground, from the coral reef
to a mountain-top
is all-encompassing,
more powerful
than your worries of the past
or your fears of the uncertain.

You contain everything,
big and small,
high and low.
Yes,
You've occupied life's deepest mystery already.
Now all you want to do is
get up and spin to her
Symphony.

rest in you

All this time
what love is really doing is
Hovering  and dancing and
orbiting around you
like a songbird, like a butterfly
for any possible openings within you,
for any empty space within you
and the moment it finds an entry way
it will  move through
and rest in you.

altar

Who is saying to you
that praying or meditating for years and on end
can guarantee you an enlightenment?
One very sincere and piercing-surrendering
 inward gazing
can show you an altar pregnant with splendor.
Be sensitive and alert dear friend.
Be a reminder of  bliss.
Life is has been wanting to express herself through you
in a very authentic, fresh and compelling way.

who am I?

Some days 
in the middle of the hurricane,
some days 
after the whirlwind is gone,
a question come to you soaring

Who am I? 
Who am I?

Look!
Horses who have no owners
are retuning from the river
galloping on a roadless road.
their eyes are full of exuberance
and freedom.

So many nights and days later
the answer comes like this:

I am a child within a child
that knows itself as a child.
I am light within light
that knows itself as light.

Heart's flower

a companion
is your heart's flower whose abundance
irrigates your soul's thirst.
She does not borrow you her wings.
she shows you where your wings are
so that you can fly beyond the ego's
gravitational force, to the point of
no return

skilled professionals

Over the years of long practice
we've become skilled professionals 
in getting up early in the mornings
and do what we are expected to do during the day
and go back to sleep at night.
But once something deep inside us wakes up
Once the lotus-bud within us breaks open
there is no going back to sleep again.

how many of you

We've been talking about awakening,
about love,
about compassion
ever since the teachings of the Buddha and Jesus
and many great saints  who have come and gone
and yet we look around today
and see so much misery,
so much pain and so much suffering.

Are you really ready to wake up?
to stop clinging to power?
how many of you are
ready to let go of your desire to control?
and
how many of you are ready now
to dissolve into the sun rising
from within you?

clarity

From
The place of clarity
from the place of love,
we see things as they are
not reduced, not divided
not as we believe they are
nor as we want them to be;
from the place of clarity.

your illusion

Allow yourself

to open up and
to be touched immensely.
You will watch your illusion dropping
from your hands
and shattering on the cement
under you.

back to the origin

Let's

go back to the origin
now.
when your mind
is not thinking any more,
Before you were born,
before you took this form
Before you were given this name
and stories to tell,
who were you?

broken dry leaves

Just relinquish the habit

of disputing with the present moment;
Then you wake up and
realize that everything is surprisingly alive,
even the tiniest and
under your feet surge with the fountain of life.

Be as loving as you can


see what happens to a plant when slightly touched by the sun;
The joy that wants to be expressed,
the dance that wants to be spoken,
you cannot imagine.
The spirit moves into your body
so that it can perform certain tasks
while you are in this world.
By remembering this
Be as understanding as you can.
Be as kind as you can.
Be as loving as you can.

divine face

Why wait so long, dear one?
Be your heart’s intimate friend
and don’t resist the pull
into the core of your being
Then Oneness is no longer
a concept in your head.
It becomes the soup in your bowl, a basket full of grace
And from this entry, you open
Your eyes and all you see is
God’s divine face.

your deepest longing


To find
your
true essence,
to touch
your deepest longing
LEAVE ALL THAT
YOU KNOW
NOW
And be comfortable
With being
Empty
and hollow.

the magic inside you

A true friend is
not the one who keeps saying
"I appreciate you because you are smart and pretty and funny"
it is rather the one who unlocks your mind, rips  your heart open
and awakens the magic inside you.

Serenity

Serenity
is a garden where the seed of healing germinates.
If you want to enter here
Please don't discuss it with the ego.
I tell you,
Ego does not like such a thing
called Serenity.
