stop waiting for better days.
come out of the waiting room and
laugh like you are crazy –
forget your plans
to be awakened some day
in the future–
don’t you see?
a miracle is here to give itself away –
awakening is not
something to pursue
it is a petal
of a flower hidden
in your chest –
everyone deserves
complete rest not
just by dying but
by being fully alive.
stop looking for a rose
without the thorn –
stillness without noise
joy without sorrow ---
light without darkness –
everyone is within everyone else –
and God resides in the center
Dear friend:- You're here finally and I bow to the one that brought you here. You're here because you chose to be here at this time. You're here to celebrate beauty through words we speak, through deep silence. We might call them poetry or songs or chants. It does not matter what we call them. What matters most is you're here. These words come through us like flowers come through plants, like the rains pour from the sky. May we all become the light we spread, the beauty we speak. Blessings.

even for minute
even for one minute,
you have never been
what you think you are –
You are not the stories
told in prize winning books.
Your place is
between the seen
and the unseen,
between a little space
before the rain
whips the lilac tree
in spring –
beyond pain and
suffering -
the place where
they say the fire takes the form
of everything it consumes -
how about if you are that
consuming fire itself?
why do you memorize
what the mystics have said
about God?
I can see that in you when
you truly allow
this moment to be
what it exactly is
when you hold someone’s
pain without the hunger to be
held in return. -

symphony
Religion
Can only tell me how
to be a good Christian,
a Jew or Hindu --
but when I drop ideas
and look inside,
I find my own heartbeat
to be the symphony of
the universe -

once again
Once again
this heart is smitten with a brilliant
illumination
and opens like a stone
touched with tender hands
and gratitude returns
to itself –
all day and all night I labor
to give birth to infinity –
right here under my ribs
the Nile flows
and God pours itself
into all things.

conversation
Mind – I want to be seen,
I really want to be seen – Heart – Be the one who sees Mind –I want to be heard Heart – Be the one who hears – Mind – I really want to be loved – Heart – Be the one who loves – Mind- I want to sit with someone Heart – Learn how to sit with yourself first. Mind – I want to know everything and I cannot know. Heart - Rest in not knowing. That is a blessings. Mind - I seek and I cannot find it. Heart - Seeking what? Mind - The purpose of life Heart - You are the purpose of life. Nothing is missing so be done with seeking now and dissolve into this light. Dissolve into life. Mind - I am not ready to dissolve. The world needs me so much. I have other things to do and they are very important to me right now. By the way I am losing interested in this conversation. Bye now! I may stop by again. |
nobody
AM
absolutely nobody
and nothing other than
the infinite understanding
and wild generosity of the beloved
and in my poetry which is
not mine but a constant
birthing of divine fire,
I passionately hold, inside
this vast silence
all human being and all animals
and all plants and all beings,
everywhere
specifically those who went
to bed last night planning
to wake up this morning
but slept forever -

your vulnerability
afraid not to
reveal your vulnerability
for it is your inner durability
to hold the entire ocean,
the openness on which
flowers are invited to be
truly themselves –
a holy straw through
which a liquid
light moves.

highest divine
Who said that you are
a world savior ?
Don’t spend sleepless
nights trying to fix
every human problem
on earth.
let your movement be
towards the highest divine in you –
Start building a fire
in your living room.
This may be slow
but hearts and minds
will start to ripe
like holy fruits.

20/20 vision
to see your radiance
everywhere and
in everything,
it is not enough to
have 20/20 vision at your eye clinic –
you need the willingness
to see the logo of God
inside everyone -
looking at all things
with the same tenderness
the beloved looks at you -

Anarchy
anarchy is necessary
for the manifestation
of great light –
A mother’s water bag must break
for a labor to begin –
the earth must be cracked open
for a seedling to emerge –
the heart must be ripped
wide apart to receive and
give the perfume of love
how can we make smoothies
before crushing wild
berries and avocados ..?

Protozoa
All that is required is
to deeply and honestly
gaze inside
so that we can travel to a place
where one thing
contains all
and a protozoa holds
the kingdom of heaven.

Music of infinity
Each moment
we are being invited
to enter the heart
of mystery
where the line
between the creator
and creations vanish -
in the presence of true love
you cannot see two faces-
There is only one divine
Altar holding inside
itself the music
of infinity.
