how deeply have you loved

the world shouts
in my hears -
how much have you
earned this year?
how much have you
planned and how
much have you accomplished?
the heart said,
how fearless are you
dear one, when you
forgive?
how deeply have you loved?
how passionate are you
when you kiss and touch
the hands that shiver with
innocence?

doubt is the obstacle

doubt
is the obstacle -
and fear
is the hindrance -
when you're ready
to lose them,
love can find
you.

love begins here

Without seeking
confirmation or license
from someone else,
Be completely at peace
With what you are. –
Love begins here

comments in your head

Start
your day by looking
at things around you
without comments in your head-
the path will open up
that leads you to a place
that is not on google earth
or world atlas -
Where the ego shrinks and
the heart expands –
here you can
find the courage
to trade your desires
with drunkenness.

teachers

Teachers are everywhere
Some of them point to
the orange, warm sun and say
That is your heart -
Some are even
willing to grab you by the neck
and leave you by the
gurgling shore of the sea.
Whether you are
ready to Jump inside and vanish
or just stand by the edge and
think about it for a while,
That is up to you.

A wizard without beginning

for all your unanswered
prayers ----
your thirst and hunger ---
Be still and gaze
inside.
a beauty that has no
name -
A wizard without
beginning or end
has fully taken
your being.

Don't compare or compete

Don't compare
or compete
with your brother-sister --
know that
You are not
better or worse than
anyone else-
inside all things and beings
the same sun
is shining and
the same rose is
flowering and the same
bird is singing.
when you realize this
you to can shine and sing
and flower
because love dissolves
all your limitations.

your inner strength

Beauty
Is spontaneous
don’t think what
to say next -
see how a warm poem
erupts inside our
hidden dreams -
Return to your
Inner strength.
The heart has the ability
to weave laughter
from what emerges
In this moment.

the sky and the earth and the oceans ---

when
we forget that
the sky and
the earth
and the oceans
and the woods
and I and you ------
are jasmine flowers
emerging
from one heart –
we continue to
fear and suspect
one another .

the ever-burning candle

my
poetry
Is interested in
only one thing –
to show you the way
into the ever-burning
candle
in your
heart.

the wisdom of listening

in a society
where everyone wants
to be famous by
talking -
the wisdom of listening
is being challenged

our true nature

Relationships
That are not driven by
limitations or
that are not based
on fame or social status ---
can bring us to the place
of healing and awakening.
They can opens the eyes
and the heart
So that we can see our true
nature inside each other.

that cannot ever be said

When the beauty
that cannot ever be said
becomes your heart -
you sparkle.

taking down the house

Honoring
Whatever wants to show up
Is a deep courage. It is a lion roaring
In your heart, taking down the house 
made of confusion.
the truth is
acceptance transforms your pain
Into laughter.

whatever dreams

Whatever dreams you have
Inside your eyes -
let your heart touch it -
It will bloom and explode
into sunshine -

the object and the subject

When
there is separation between
the knower and the known
the lover and the beloved
the observer and the observed,
the object and the subject ---
the deep music of life
has not yet penetrated
the heart -

the inner road

roads
bring travelers to us -
the inner road takes us
to a place where we
started birthing wholeness.
it is amazing -
the way humans think
is many and different.
the energy that moves us
and makes is tremble with joy
is one.

love does not choose

love
does not choose
one being from another
and everyone comes
with a gift.
the ground is fertile
before fertilizers came.
what seems, on the surface,
to shatter your hopes
can also bring you to
the regions of deep listening.
Here is not a place
for excuses -
if you want to shine,
shine now.

the beginning of wisdom

this is the beginning
of wisdom -
to know that God resides
inside you as yourself

from here

how far away
you can go from here
can be an adventure -
How close you can come
to your sanity
and touch
something unshakable,
really unshakable -
that is a real courage
you need now.

the storm

it is a gift-
whatever
is happening
now -
accept it
instead of
questioning it -
the storm becomes your
sweet lover.
