The day was breaking

The day was breaking---

I looked up the sky

And birds danced around

the burning candles.

The heart said: - I want to sing.

I want to pour Into all things.

Now I found you inside of  me

 And from the place of  wholeness

I bow.

I woke up in my heart

One day

I felt  completely lost.

I banged on the gate

in front of me until

It was broken wide open.

It was my heart.

I woke up in my heart.

At some point

At some point

we'll arrive at a place

where life's beauty can

no longer be described in words.

Then we start bursting with the poetry

of stillness.

holistic medicine

Here is 
a holistic medicine
for your pain -
Drink the one
you love
tenderly.

and drink
all of it 
until you can see
the foot of the
container

divine urn

You are a divine urn 
where all religions and all faiths merge, ferment
and distill and turn into one transcending 
consciousness.

You are beautiful

You are not handsome or pretty.
You are beautiful.
You are more beautiful
than you ever think of yourself
You're more beautiful than
the concept of beauty.
You are more beautiful than
all the treasures in your safe.

hunting the elephants

Because humans are the most preoccupied

spicies on planet earth 

they can hardly notice

thewhole sky beaming from inside them

and so they are always in need of something,

something to make them happy and fulfilled.

and  they go out constantly, constantly

hunting  the elephants  for their ivory.

The heart ooverflows with bliss

Be insecure.

Stop trying to be more attractive and beautiful.

Fall in  love with  what already  is.  

Have you seen a turtle

Trying to be a peacock?

Be here instead.

The heart  already overflows
 with bliss.

by the storm

When you find the willingness
to drop all that you've gathered,
your original intelligence moves in
and catches you by the storm.

immensely real

when something immensely real,
something stunning takes hold of you,
You are suddenly free because 
what comes and goes, 
what rises and falls does not matter
matter any more.

the sense of fulfillment

the sense of fulfillment overflows me
Every time I wake up in the morning
And every evening I go back to sleep again.
The spaces between mornings and evenings
are evenly sprinkled with a sweet scent of life.
As long as seasons come and go
As long as birds continue to sing

What more do I need?
As long as winds moves the trees
As long as flowers bloom on the sidewalks
What more do I need?
As long as life pours in and out of all things
As long as I continue to live
in the heart of all hearts,
In the seed of all seeds,
what more do I need?

We want to enter here and dissolve

A shepherd run into

Sugar cubes and salt rocks  and gangs

of many other soluble elements

marching by the ocean and asked them

what happened.

They said in unison:

We are tired of being pieces, solid
and separate individuals.

We want to jump here and

melt into oneness. We want to
dissolve into love.

mountain across the street

You might not have noticed this;
I am a mountain across the street
from where you live.
Days and nights I keep
echoing your splendor back to you
so that you know how beautiful you are.

sweet scent of flames

Be inside

Whatever you are doing.

Let the soul smell sweet scent of flames and awaken.

And with this awakening, your body awakens

And so do your words and all things around you

turning themselves Into  light.

Come to a place

Come to a place

where flowers give off their best perfume,

Where  curtains fall down and all doors take

You to  one door.

Come to a place

where you can touch

the beloved’s  luminous face and

watch your  entire being catching fire.

Come to a place where

Freshness pours into freshness,

Where Life’s dance  sweeps you away

 by her vibrance.

the meshes of human drama

The further
You meander away
From the sweet music of your heart,
The easier it becomes
to be trapped
in the meshes of human drama.

is it enough?

 Is it enough

Sitting by the seashore

And watching the waves play?

Is it enough

Dipping your toes and washing your hair

In the water?

Is it enough talking with friends how bubbles form?

May be what you need is a total trust

To be carried away into the heart of the sea.

May be what you really need is the dive into the core

Of your own heart essence,

Returning to the root of all roots

Like a tree in the winter.

wine pourer

The wine pourer is here

And there is a long line

forming out in the ramp.

Come home, dear friend,

come home

 and empty your cup.

out of your shells

You are not here
To be earth-bound.
You are not here
to be time-bound.
You are here for more;
to break out of your shells
and soar.....

seed

Look
how passionately and secretly
a fruit holds her seed deep inside her;
That is how love holds you.

bonfire

In your being
There is a flame,
There is a bonfire
That can destroy

All that is not true.

torn from love

You
have always been a friend of the heart.
How I love that!
Now I want you to be a wizard, to be a magnet
and pull together those who are frightened and divided
and polarised.
I want you to scoop in your hand
and kiss those who are torn from
love.

morning breeze

A friend
is someone who knocks on your bedroom
like a morning breeze
and wakes you up from your dream
not the one that sends you
into a deeper dreamstate

legion of stars

intimately
and tenderly,
direct your gaze
inwards.
Inside you, there is
a legion of stars
and sweet poetry whose radiance
can awaken the world
that is dreaming and
incomplete.

When love suddenly rises

When love suddenly rises

And  consumes you, pouring herself into you,

When you don’t expect

Don’t say it is too early

or too late.

A rose blooms not

To make someone happy

or sad.

She blooms

Simply because

It is time for her to

Open up and

 share herself.

You are not the body or the mind

You are not the body or the mind
nor the product of the body and mind.
You are the source.
You tend to sneak out more often
Sniffing at the broken wine bottles.
but If you move inside,
your own elegance can destroy
the root of all wantings.

courage looking for you

I saw courage

walking down the street

looking for you.

Don’t worry if you

Can  dive or not.

Throw yourself

Into the sea of love.

That alone can  quench

your heart’s  thirst

for its own beauty.

arrow of light

when you enter this moment fully,
everyone you meet is
an arrow of light
pointing to your deepest
heartsong.

when oneness is touched

The ego is scared to death at the presence of love
Because when true love is fully experienced,
when oneness is touched,
the ego loses its importance
and is left out in the cold streets.

where the mind cannot go.

You can go to a thousand satsang or read countless books on spirituality. if you want to know who you are ,if you want to have a direct experience of your organic innocence, be daring to delve into the depth where the mind cannot go.

You're life

You are not
just a friend of life.
You are life.
when the higher knowing
awakens and explodes
in a human being,
 

first it intoxicates.
then it transforms
everything.
