gods
let’s play gods
and build a world
in our very likeness
a phantom dream! with wicked plots
and unlikely circumstances.
then let’s forget
and pretend we are
Mortals in the game.

no separation
I drown my name
in the ocean of consciousness
and let the waves undo
any separation
between 'me' and 'you'.

Earth
Earth is weeping
and we cannot hear
from the noise of our debates
about climate change.

children's vision
give me back my children’s vision
to see the world anew,
colored pebbles and playful butterflies!
that timeless age that this soul knew.

one and the many
Close your eyes and Know yourself as One,
Open your eyes and See yourself as Many.
Open your eyes and See yourself as Many.

from stony stillness
from stony stillness and single oneness
expanding,
such is the breath of creation and of the universe
to motion and infinite complexity,
a feast to keep the eye enchanted
and the mind entangled
for many spiraling lives
then contracting
back to One again.

we don't truly belong
we don’t truly belong
we only color the world
on a canvass of emptiness
with the music of our laughter,
the pain of our tears,
aspirations and high hopes.
a dance of passing shadows yet
our human ‘tour de force’.

flow
flow, river soul, flow back home
and carry nothing with you.
let it all go.

let it all go.

veils are rising
veils are rising
I can see through the mist
loosening my grip
over life’s order.
I am no longer life’s commander.
I yield and surrender
to a gentler flow.
there is no more fear
the way ahead is clear.

Who am 'I'?
Who am 'I'?
Who am 'I' when I strip away all exterior distraction, when I take away all the learnt knowledge, when I delete all identification with body, thoughts, activity, beliefs, race, birth?
Only breath remains.
Who am I, behind the very breath?

obstacles
every barrier, hurdle, and every obstacle
there
by the universe undertaken
to shake and to awaken.

lotus flower
see my face! a thousand petaled-lotus
rooted deep in murky matter
my splendor beauty yet untouched
adorned, by precious jewel in the center,
a clear and unclouded mind
to pierce through the illusion-life
with the purity of its refined sight.
