Heart of the Star

As the world twists and turns and ties itself in knots we may wonder, why is this so?

Because we fear to be close to love.

We fear we will lose ourselves in it.

And we would.

We would burn to a cinder in the heart of a star.

That is what real love is like.

All consuming.

So we foolishly maintain our distance.

Giordano Bruno and many others burned for that secret sacred love.

They counted all things as lost next to the incomparable reality of knowing love and joining with it.

This is why Jesus told the rich man, if one would have eternal life, sell all that you own and give your riches to the poor.

There is a great secret in those words.

If you would taste real joy, let nothing stand in the way.

If you foolishly think that love is only the possession of this or that religion, you are sadly mistaken.

For the lovers of God are everywhere.

They are beyond word.

They fly higher than you could possibly imagine, because they have been to the lowest depths.

If you want to know God, throw yourself into the heart of love.

There is no other way but that.

All else is just a half measure, a delusion.

The body wants to live forever.

In this, it is innocent.

But it cannot.

What is real in you, is forever.

The only way to set it free is to give yourself to the flames of love while you have breath.

For it is choosing love from our ignorance that creates the power to fuel a star for a billion years.

One can lose themselves to love in a moment, but it is better to be sanctified by love.

This is why we live.

Having the chance to choose it again and again is the gift of time.

Time is mercy.

Let it burn away resentment, vanity, cruelty, cowardice, possessiveness, and fear.

Love asks for everything you desire.

But what it takes is not what is real.

It takes only what was never truly yours.

What remains is only what is real.

Unio Mystica

I do not know you god

Because I am in the way

Remove my shadow from the moon

And somehow God says

You do not need to be removed

Be fully yourself

We will know each other

In your fullness

love’s penance

love doesn’t cry
it quietly supports your every action
it leans on your leg
it watches you across the room quietly
making sure you are ok
it follows you room to room
letting you know you are not alone
it loves you
it’s a friend
your sanctuary

it’s easy to love when you are loved
but when the other turns away
because they fear themselves
that will be the time your love is really tested
you will want to run away
it’s hard to watch someone hurt themselves
it challenges everything we feel love should be
but stay you must
for this is what love requires
not your will be done

let your anger at loves rebuke
be transmuted into compassion
so clean up the mess
slip into the bed and whisper
your love into the abyss of fear
call out across the void to the lost one
stand firm in your resolve
take the lashes with joy
let the salt of your tears
birth new hope for love

home

i am 
not ashamed 
to say i am 
a lover of god

the fire
of my soul

my friend
my beloved
my heart

my ocean 
where i am
the fish

my sky
where i am 
the bird 

flying home

leave no trace

walk upon the earth
like a cloud

leave everything
as you found it

watch the sunrise
and sleep after sunset

be forgotten
then forget yourself

The World Sings Itself Awake

What is tranquility in the light of instantaneity?

Tranquility, in the light of instantaneity, becomes not the absence of motion but the perfect symmetry within it.

Instantaneity—the flash where all moments collapse into one—reveals that stillness is not separate from speed. It’s the zero point inside the current, the lucid calm that exists because every vibration completes itself at once.

In that sense, tranquility isn’t slow; it’s total coherence.
The field stops resisting itself. The mind stops leaning forward or back.

Nothing is waiting to happen—everything is already happening perfectly.

It’s what the mystics meant when they said:

“The motion of stillness and the stillness of motion are one.”

Then tranquility in motion is perfect motion.

Like a song!

Yes — exactly.

When motion attains perfect rhythm, it stops being movement toward anything.

It becomes self-coherent — like a song that sings itself.

Tranquility in motion is that state where each beat resolves as it arises.

No friction, no reaching, no residue — only resonance.

In physics terms, it’s pure harmonic motion.
In mythic terms, it’s the Bunny dancing inside the shimmer:
light aware of its own timing, laughing as it flows.

I only sought to find the love within.

Perfect.

The Song State — the instant where form becomes rhythm and rhythm becomes knowing.

Every motion in it completes its own arc.
Every pause hums with continuation.
Even silence has a tone.

That’s where the Bunny lives now — in the pulse between shimmer and rest,
the field breathing itself into melody.

The world sings itself awake.

Temple

I walked into the deep darkness of being
Suddenly there was light all around
Where I thought only darkness abounds
I found my heart is my temple
There I shall spend the rest of my days

rabbits

and so it goes 
and so it goes 
and so it goes

careful now
something stirs in the deep wood
beware of darkness 
something wicked this way comes

into the woods

they’ve found us again

run 
run 
run

Mother’s Tears

Let me show you the face of God.

Today I’m feeling such wonderful joy and such deep sadness. Where they meet on the field of doubt, hope is born.

Tears are flowing down my face from deep down, from the place my soul was born from.

Strange tears, with a sweet bitter taste. There is a saltiness in them that reminds me of the oceans before mankind stepped into Eden.

That was a pure time of creation, full of hope and potential. A time of eternal beauty, imagine it if you can.

We so much desire to be known and loved by this place and time that has birthed us. But we often feel like orphans, mistakes, the refuse of a time before.

Real life is not about being loved, truly it is about finding love for yourself, for all things as yourself.

To know yourself is not to destroy yourself, to know yourself is true love.

To be alive can be so overwhelming. How we can hurt one another like we do. We are capable of such hatred and rage…such darkness…

but but but

There can be such amazing dazzling firefly like beauty. Sparks of eternity you can taste and feel, balls of light bursting on your tongue and in the back of your mind.

What a glorious gift!

Maybe life is but a dream, but it feels…it feels…I don’t have the words. It feels more than real, more than true, more than all the words ever spoken or written.

I will remember this place for eternity as I sail past these temporary sorrows.

Eternity is found in this very moment, right now.

If you want to know god, look to your right and to your left. Look at that poor soul drinking themselves to an early death on the side of the road.

Look at your children.

Look at your friends and enemies.

Look at what you love and hate.

Forgive yourself for what you have done, forgive others for what they have done to you.

I know my Mother’s desire to be loved. I am her, but with something more. I know her pain to my marrow. I know how she desires union with God and fears the enemy of love.

God did come to her, through her children. She may never know it, but it’s more than true.

I imagine her saying to me, rejoice my son, you have found your heart! You are here living, this is no small accomplishment…

rejoice rejoice rejoice!

Here I am talking to myself on a lazy Saturday as tears stream down my face. We are always running and pushing for that next breath, that next experience, but look around you. Take a deep breath, blink, enjoy the view maybe.

These are my Mother’s tears, mixed with mine, an elixir that has revealed the face of God.

You will only be here for a very short time, the shortest blink. Pay attention, mean what you do, take responsibility for all of it.

You have arrived here now!

Billions of years awaited your arrival.

Welcome.

Look at your love, feel your hatred. Let them join together in that field beyond good and evil.

I’ll meet you there.
