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.

when are you going to start loving
You’ve put
your hands and mind
on so many things –
you’ve gone to school –
you’ve worked different jobs
you’ve been in and out of
relationships –
you’ve seen places –
you’re tried your best
to be a good person -
but there is one thing left –
when are you going
to start living?
when are you
going to start loving?
on giving
giving because
you’ve been given
in the past is
It is not true
generosity.
It is a show.
give yourself
freely and secretly
like the rain comes
and pours itself
into a forest.
the rain has no
image of the giver
or receiver.
It just gives and
It does not even know
It gives.
It does not talk
bout it.
it does not need
media coverage.

entire kingdom
Resistance
cannot take you
any further.
fear is a detraction
from what is real -
give your eyes,
your hands
your feet,
your heart ---
your whole self
to love -
it will give you
the sky, the stars
and the entire
kingdom.
scam
whatever
people and media continue
to tell you about love
is a scam-
stop looking for
God inside your thought.
that is a futile search.
be empty from any
urgency or dogma.
look in the mirror
and be present.
the beloved is inside
your eyes.
wildly alive
You can call me crazy
if you want but
I’ve nothing to wish for -
nothing to wait for -
nothing to hope for -
I'm already drunk
with what is here.
In the present moment
everything is wildly alive,
sacred and
precious
milky ways
You're actually
woven from
ten thousand million
milky ways
and stars -
why do you
complain of
darkness?
wet cloth
Like a wet cloth,
something in you
longs for the sun each day –
don’t rush towards your memories –
taste your emptiness.
If there is no thirst
what is the use of water?
If there is no you
how do we know God?
It has been a long time
since I saw the fountain
of moon in your eyes –
Let this longing
for yourself be
like the hurricanes and
shake you.
The world is waiting.
Pick up the harp in
your heart and start
playing.
