The ego wants to control

Because

The ego wants to control

And feel superior, it is easily

Intimidated by brilliance.

Imagine how deep

you can plunge

Into the sea of peace

When you’re identified with something

that does not know itself

as love.

every sound is a song

The mind

That is busy with plans

And proposals

Has no room for poetry.

That’s why my friend, I keep asking

You to return to grace

Where the slightest touch can melt

The heart, where every day is a wedding

Ritual, where every sound is a song

And every movement is dance -

Dear one,

The very moment you look away

From the sun,

You stop vibrating.

The cracks in the ground

This morning
The weatherman said it rained everywhere
and in some places the rain was 
More intense than in other places.
and yet we continue to witness the expansion
of the deserts and the cracks
in the ground getting deeper.
The world is thirsty not just for rain water
nor for a day long sermons. 
The world is wildly thirsty and hungry
for an inner, clear seeing that can turn 
a built-up human sorrow into a daybreak.

abundance touching her lips.

It is only when you are

sound asleep, you think

you're alone and separate and

you desperately desire
 to be in a relationship.

When you wake up,  you laugh
like crazy because all that

urge vanishes like a cloud.
you  will see for yourself

how everything is intimately
and truly joined within each other.

A tree knows  in the heart
before the sun gets closer to her.

Way before a soup is prepared,
the cup smiles because
abundance  is touching
her lips.

I've crossed the oceans

I've crossed the oceans,
trekked the desert
and walked in the woods -
I have never seen
anything that 
can grow 
and bloom
out of 
turbulence.

forever freshness

Beingness
does not need
any remodeling
or enhancement,
for it clearly knows itself
as a day.
It truly
is the center of
forever
freshness.

your infinite kindness

The world
Fleeting,
Volatile and
unforgiving.
That is why your
Infinite kindness,
Complete
Understanding and
Patience is necessary.

your quesiton of safety

Someday
You will find the courage to
Know who you are and
it will be clear to you
That your question
Of safety or security
That usually makes you
Sleepless and fidgety is nothing
More than an illusion.

the supply of your love

Look deeper

into any confusions you might notice.

Let elegance arise and dissolve

your heartburn.

May you know that

the supply of your love is endless.

Be tenderness in the soil
that gives and gives again.

May whatever you're doing now

intoxicate you and free you

from your thinking.

Listen inside the song

I was driving.
my daughter was sitting
in the back and singing
a song I have never heard before.
That is a beautiful song Homa, I said.
Daddy, Listen inside the song
You will like it more – she said
And continued singing.
Beyond the rational mind’s
Knowing –
... When you sit with a friend
You open easily like a bee-hive
Whose cover is below away
by wild wind in the forest.

From your head to your toes.

Your efforts

To standout and be

 visible in this world

 might serve the

 purpose of the ego

temporarily

 but to be honest with you,

it does not make you any  happier.

 In fact it is completely useless and futile

Because the cosmos has Already

Known  you  very intimately

From your head to  your toes.

The kingdom of heaven

When it is said

“The kingdom of heaven is within you..”

It is not pointing to any particular place

Or time period

Where  qualification or requirement

Is needed.

It is rather a buried diamond deep inside you,

a volcano of love erupting from the well of

Timeless abundance.

It is a proclamation you shout

When you touch your own

Wholeness filled with divine secrets.

genuine communion

The world
experiences
Poverty on so many
Levels.
The one that has spread from
Cost to cost and across boundaries
Is the fear of forging a direct, deep
And genuine communion
With the force of life.

Little irritations

Don’t be annoyed
By little irritations
flying around you.
Allowing them
To be what they are -
That alone proves
You readiness to
Be yourself
your determination
To dissolve into light.

The river of life

Your concerns

And worries about something

Is not only meaningless

It is also unnatural.

Because the moment you start worrying,

The river of life inside you, first bends

And then stops completely.

This makes you forget how to flow

It shows us that

You’re taking instructions directly from  the ego

Whose chief purpose is to divorce

You from your own beauty.
