Thousands of lifetimes of teachings have misrepresented enlightenment. Tis not a sudden moment... a breakthrough to all the hidden secrets It is life itself... ...a continual awakening. Stubbing your toe and a first kiss. That first, sweet, sweet blackberry falling off the vine into your palm Enlightenment cannot be grasped with words. Once written the moment is gone Forever lost. So, why bother with these scribbles? These silly babbles show ones discovery of self, I sing for you to caress your heart to tickle your soul. You may even find a bit of yourself here There is a chuckle giggling somewhere close in your belly. Live this nirvana... Become the samahdi you seek. Then, drop the search and live only these wonders. This is a time for madness! Cripple the sun with your own exquisite light! Hold the moon in your pocket with a few marbles Collect the entire sky with every inhalation. Create the heavens with every breath and sneeze! Who is this voice, you ask? I am the sufi in you coming out to play! ~ Silence cannot be described this perfection is shattered with a single word. Live this wonder and nothing need be said. Samahdi isnt far, in fact, tis closer than you dream. Take two steps outside yourself Spring yawns and the cold frost is gone A bear scratches his fuzzy butt on a log and trots off to find some honey. ~ | |||||||||||
