I try to catch my breath
It slips through my fingers
There is no stopping
Only rising and falling
There is only The Breath

“In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.” – Buddha
Save me, O G‑d,
for the floodwaters are up to my neck.
Deeper and deeper I sink into the mire;
I can’t find a foothold.
I am in deep water,
and the floods overwhelm me.
From the depths, O L‑rd,
I call for your help. – A Psalm of David
When you felt most Alone
that is when He was closest
I pray the Highest Will
become our will
I pray our will become
The Highest Will
We were never alone
I choose…The Secret Path
“God created the desert to train the faithful.
The foot on the hot sand leads to understanding.
One can not go against the will of God.
We blaze the trail for All
We will not forsake you
We will help you carry your burdens
We are a new breed
Who hears the star call singing
Something dark and deep stirs within
Ancient fears rising to block our way
Mystical signs guiding
As a Light to the lost child
We felt the pull
From our lives of captivity and want
Wandering now somewhere dark
We long for those left behind
Who have little hope
And fear we are lost forever
We righteous few
Will hold up a standard
For the rest to follow
Nothing for us in the sand
We carry with us what we need
Every blind step considered
We are compelled forward
For there is a comfort just beyond
The Oasis begins to emerge from the illusion
So many lost to fear in the old city
The sand is searing with many traps
We have marked the way for you to follow
Come out you All and join us free people
And claim your inheritance stolen
So long ago
Words to my soul.
Sometimes
my mind is disloyal
to Guru and guide
—never to my God,
with whom I am
on friendly terms
since years back,
first on terms of
Hi how are you
and now on terms of
When will you be home for dinner
—because the moment
you put a human face on it
it’s all
Hey that guy’s teaching something else
Something comfortable and easy
But my teacher gave me something
and said
Dig into this,
Mess with it,
Make it work
and part of me is offended
by the Hey this ain’t
warm and cozy and fun
This shit is work
But my friend God
comes in late for dinner again
and says past a mouthful of fruit
He’s right, you know,
Just doing what I told him
And now you’ve got to
Do what he says
So I sigh
Because God gives pretty good advice.
At the still point
Everything is falling together
This moment floating
In the ethereal
Dark matter coalescing
Around selfish thoughts
Doves lift your burden
Bringing a lightness of being
You can feel everything
In the moment
As the waves crest
Infinite potential
Crashing down into
Knowing at Childhood’s End
“Believe nothing just because a so-called wise person said it.
Believe nothing just because a belief is generally held.
Believe nothing just because it is said in ancient books.
Believe nothing just because it is said to be of divine origin.
Believe nothing just because someone else believes it.
Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true.”
– Buddha
You can KNOW what you are
But you must dissolve and sacrifice your life
You must open to all with Loving intent
You will create and express yourself
And you will learn what you are
You will find a world below the illusion
You must learn to flow in this illusion of constant change
Only when you embrace this will life open to you
Let your life be your flower to the Universe
Let go your plans
Let go your dreams
Let go your fears
If the path goes left, go left
When it stops, stop
If the path goes right, go right
But do not move unless you need to
Give and receive freely
Just BE
In this way your intuition
Your greatest ally
Will rise
You will see yourself clearly
It will guide you
Everything in this world is
Set to prevent this free flow
No more planning the path
Don’t take my word
Go find out for yourself what you really are
There is an acceptance and KNOWING here, at long last
A peace that I wish for the whole world to rest in.
There is no illumination to take you from your present situation
The Truth is found living in the Light of I AM in the moment
You must work things out from where you are
Learn your breath and its rhythms
The eye can not see itself
Can you dig it
