love

Love
Until your bones
turn into a diamond,
and your hands and feet
grow into petals.
until a single drop
of water becomes the sea
of life.
Love
until your breath knows
it is here even before
the birth of the universe –
Love
until everything you’ve
known dissolves –

all day today

All day today
and tomorrow and 
the day after –
be tinder to yourself –
allow everyone passing
by your eyes to be who they are-
let them bloom each moment
you see the gain.
you are not here to
make a living.
you are here to live.
don’t expect
a prize for being
in this world for
you are the prize
and be alert
life is whispering
something precious
in your mouth.

fire and light

don’t be afraid
of being baffled and lost –
Your life begins 
when it seems to you
that your life is over –
your journey begins 
when you no longer
know what to do
and which way to go –
the very moment
it feels immensely dark and 
cold, fire and light arrive and
flood through you 
and they don’t leave you
without burning and
transforming you.

future expectations

Someone 
Whose arms are
filled with the past and 
future expectations,
cannot hug the deep
fragrance of Now.

hidden treasure

We are the expansion
and contraction of the
universe. 
why try to uncover a hidden
treasure?
Feel her presence deep
inside your breast.
You are the hidden
treasure, a diamond covered
with sweet dust.

obstacles

Obstacles 
Can be very intimidating
when you look on the
surface–
They don’t actually block our path.
They only redirect us to a new
Passage of existence -
They have no agenda to stop
Our laughter –
They deepen it immensely
because they open the entry
into the center of our true joy.

we left home

We felt alone and 
restless, we left home
looking for a company –
we did not know that we’re
Sitting next to each other
In the same room.
we were starved and 
deprived.
we left home looking for
the deepest meaning of life.
we did not know we
are the deepest meaning
of life.

what is more needed

wherever
the inner light
takes you,
don't resist -
Life always brings 
what is most needed whether
you like it or not.

moon-flame

why settle for
what can make
you feel better?
you want something real,
a radical burning. 
May your lips catch moon-flame
and whisper the name 
of the ancient one
at least once a day -
you will become vast and endless
sky pregnant with miracles.

a master

a master
is not someone
who has an answer
to everything -
it is the one
who has no doubt
when she/he throws
herself/himself to the
ultimate source
of life.

our ultimate mission

Our ultimate mission here
is to remember, not to
accomplish something new but
simply to remember again and
be a friend with
who we are, our eternal 
nature, the very one
glowing from beneath
all things.

pain comes your way

Pain

comes your way

because it has

a question for you –

before you call your

doctor, listen to

 it and answer its questions –

while the world is busy

trying to cure its problems

externally,

I and other thirty  thousand

wild bees move into

a forest of life making

honey from for wounded

flowers and unheard

songs.

without burning you

don’t be afraid

of being mystified and  lost –

Your life begins

 when it seems to you

that you are running out

of time and your life

is over –

your journey begins

when you no longer

know  what to do

and which way to go –

the very moment

it feels immensely dark and

cold, fire and light

flood through you

and they don’t leave you

without burning  and

transforming you.

 

who desires nothing

I have been on a long trip
for a while now and 
arrived at a place
where i desire nothing
other than what I'm already given -
I've dissolved into the one
inside of me who desires
Nothing.

continuous expansion

We’ve heard
everything is destined to change
when the time is right –
don’t be surprised if someone close to you
tells you that you are not the same
anymore. That is part of growth
and continuous expansion.
when something you have once had
is taken away, instead of feeling
powerless and lovely, be grateful
for the time it was part of you –
stop and see how much you’ve
learned from it. Most of all
remember that what is original and 
real cannot be taken away from you.

with all of yourself

every sound is music

every silence is poetry

inside every stove

there is bread of life

every movement is dance

every flower pulsates with mystery.

every beehive vibrates with

a raw  honey -

If you have not felt this

If you have not smelled this

If you are not drunk yet

It is just because you have

not allowed it to reveal itself

to you.

Dear friend,

allow the winter to be winter

allow the night to come and go

you are rejecting  what you

really want

 with all of yourself.

 

the master within

a friend said-

I am done with suffering

and  ready to experience

happiness now. I am ready

for true liberation  -

Tell me in a few words

how can I get there –

 

take your attention away

from your external demands

leave all things behind

 and direct it towards the

 master within, your primal self –

there is gold shining underneath

your ribs

look inside –

there is an orchard

blooming in your heart.

 

like rocks

It is inevitable -
You will face with
challenges, pain and
ups and downs
in this journey –
don’t say that life
is unfair to you
nor take it personally
nor walk away from it.
Life knows what
works better for us.
like rocks,
we are being constantly
smoothened and distilled.

a brilliant question

Someone asked me a brilliant question this morning.
He said – your writings confirm that connecting with the inner
being is the key for human awakening. My question for you is what signals do you receive when you are connected?
Answer –Thank you dear friend. I would like you to experience it yourself directly so that you know it yourself as your own experience not as a concept. Since you are curious, I will be humbled to share my experience with you. Please don’t try to understand it mentally or intellectually. open your heart and your hands and let this energy move inside you and penetrate you like a divine arrow of light and arouse your own vast field of innocence.
So when you really merge with your true essence you will experience the following –

You no longer worry about anything because love and peace floods over your whole being -
Thoughts will come and go but you no longer take them seriously -
You don’t resist any more. You will have the energy to accept whatever comes and goes –
You don't feel lonely because you are one with the supreme dance of grace and the music of wholeness itself.
you are one with everything and everyone.
You don’t try to change or fix anything or anybody. You allow everything to be what it is -
You don’t struggle because your need to control goes away -
You don’t get offended by someone’s opinions because deep inside
you know who you are -
You become happy for no reason -
Creativity, simplicity, peace and balance --- become your authentic nature -
Whatever happens around, you don’t cling to it nor
will you be overwhelmed. You are free.
Overall, you raise the quality of your vibration
and that will be the most divine service you can
offer yourself and the world. _/i\_

this moment

this moment is
not for arguing,
not for empowering
the ego –
it is for dissolving
into the heart of mystery.
a new day or night is
given to us as a gift
so that we can return
to life again and awaken
to the infinity.

never tired of loving

If someone
has hurt you in the
past, it happened from the
field of not knowing –
If you’ve hurt someone
in the past, it happened from the
field of not knowing –
look deep in your heart,
dear friend–
you may not have the name
for it but there is something
in you that is never
tired of loving.

the light in your eyes

Why speak of
other things
when the light
in your eyes burns
ten times brighter
than the stars
in the milky way?
our cup is filled
with a secret
that can turn
a poison into
a medicine.
Come, let’s taste it.
Oh my friend, you are
a wild bewilderment!

admit now

Admit now –
there are countless wild
possibilities awaiting
you if you drop the
worn out belief you are
holding on to.
like a river
you will break dams
and be everywhere
at the same time, moving
towards your own
majesty –

wholeness of your being

watch if there is something
in you that takes sides
and judges others -
that is not the language
we are here to speak-
it shows there is a part
of you that is not yet
integrated with the wholeness
of your very being.

your bed

Your bed
is not a place for falling
into forgetfulness
nor losing yourself into
a nightmare –
it is a sacred ground for surrender,
trust and total rest
where the seed of deep
remembrance grows
sweet petals and crack
the earth open.
the mattress and the pillow
are not objects –
they are the shoulder and the
sweet arms of the
beloved holding
and supporting you
with immense love.

cosmic energy

By loving yourself
you’ve done nothing
wrong –
thought can say
you are being selfish -
you are actually returning
into the cosmic energy
from where everything
arises.
That is what you are.

the way to the sky

it does not matter
how far away a bird flies -
she will come back to her
children at the end of the day-
the eyes know the way to the sky
no matter how dark it seems.
my heart is on fire while my soul
wanders between the deep ocean
and the shore.
don't go away my friend,
your destination is here -
why wait for the heart to open -
be love again for seven thousand
times.

intimately woven

when you are
intimately woven
with all things -
there is nothing
you cannot handle.

old music

If you are busy
 calculating how things
should be or should not be –
how the world should treat you -
how your past was magnificent
or dreadful – --
you continue to play old music
in your mind -
then you cannot be available to
the guidance’s and unexpected gifts
and little miracles life brings you
everyday.

great failure

You take a certain action and
the outcome is different from
what you've expected.
the mind says it is a great failure.
The heart says, this is simply
a different form of expression.
