when will i learn ?
when will I learn to see the forest for the trees
and live my life like the birds and the bees
when will I learn that life's worth living,
if for no other reason than the loving and giving
when will I learn to go easy on myself;
i'm the only one I have, and my wealth is my health
when will I learn to formulate a dream,
when it's fulfilled-what will it all mean?
when will I learn to maintain a friendly disposition,
even if faced with a hostile opposition
when will I learn not to let judgements...

To Those Who Know Me
To those who know me by name,
having spent time as peers over the years.
If you could spare me the present
and lend me your ears,
i'll stick to the point
and try not to bore you to tears;
Yet i think it best to get off my chest
what it is that i want to try and make clear.
If we walk in each others shoes for a mile
the reciprocal effects
could be immensely worthwhile,as
'right relations' are forever to hold dear.
True aspiration to the Higher Self

Esoteric psychology 1
But in the head of man himself is also to be found
a marvellous symbolic happening.
In that living organism is enacted that drama
whereby the purely human being,
merges himself in divinity.
The great final drama of the mystical union
between God and man,
and between the soul and personality,
is enacted there.
According to Eastern philosophy,
there are in the head of man two great energy centres.
One of them,between the eyebrows,
blends and fuses the five types of energy
which are transmitted to it

To My Inner Child
Hello there little one,my child within,
i wish to share with you about
where it is i've been,
and to let you know that things
are not what they seem-
that your reality somehow
turned into my dream,
is simply the result of
things you've not yet seen.
I had but no choice to
withhold from your vision,
the beautiful and true
and replace with television-
If i could but make you understand
about what we call the 'human condition'.
Yet all is not lost
o' sweet child of mine
despite our...

The Great Invocation
From the point of Light within the Mind of God
Let light stream forth into the minds of men.
Let light descend on Earth.
From the point of Love within the Heart of God
Let love stream forth into the hearts of men.
May Christ return to Earth.
From the centre where the Will of God is known
Let purpose guide the little wills of men-
The purpose which the Masters know and serve.
From the centre which we call the race of men
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out
And may it seal the door where evil dwells.

The Fifth Purpose of Deity
Ray V.Concrete Knowledge or Science
The thunders crash around the mountain top;dark clouds
conceal the form.The mists,arising from the watery sphere,
serve to distort the wondrous......found within the secret
place.The form is there.Its note is sounding forth.
A beam of light illuminates the form;the hidden now ap-
pears.Knowledge of God and how he veils himself finds
consumation in the thoughts of man.The energies and
forces receive their secret names,reveal their inner purpose,
and all is seen as rhythm,a...

ASLEEP WHILE AWAKE
In my befuddled dreams
i feel more awake
than when i roll out of bed
and let the brain dominate;
who's dweller works
to suppress the mind,
and in turn screens the soul
making it harder to find.
And find i must
for humanity's sake,
not least my own
for i'm part of that fate,
from the human condition
which separates -
to a dynamic brotherhood
of enlightened mates.

Desperate Times
I don’t belong and never have
With familiar faces
And the comforts of home –
OR the forsaken places
That I may roam.
Angels protecting and reporting
To God
As I wander through life
Like a stray dog .
Catch me if I’m falling
Reaching for the other side –
When the Black Dog’s barking,
The fearless run and hide.
Catch me if I’m drowning
On the incoming tide.
Watching my world unravel
Right before my eyes
Maybe destiny
Until the inevitable demise.
My actions are louder ...

Adopted Point Of View
Can’t justify or judge the actions of Buddha;
As he sat beneath the Bodhi Tree,
He knew in his Heart the import of ‘Being’-
‘Alive and Free’.
Looking for a larger purpose
Than raising a family,
He abandoned his life and that of others
In search of True Identity , Within –
Where lies all potentiality .
At the point when he sat ,
Must have known he’d attract Antipathy
At his seeming lack of Reciprocity .
Yet t'was only his Loved Ones
That felt the deserted isolation , ...

Monument To Blair
We greeted the morning with a spring in our step
In our own peculiar way,
For we knew in our hearts
For little ‘Blair Hamilton’
It was his special day.
Richard was the man,for he gathered the clan
And headed straight for
The tranquil Hinze Dam.
On to the bank we went and set up
The stretch tent,
Although the land proved quite stoney.
It mattered not as though nothing could stop ,
Blair Hamilton Mcdiarmid’s naming ceremony.
We soldiered on and made the tent look a treat
Without ever becoming rushed off...

Jump On The Truth Train
When we realise one day
we must return to the one ,
we are All our fathers begotten sons,
that’ll be the day
when it’s all said and done.
Peace and beauty will entertain
in the hearts of all a joyous play -
of angelic melodies ,
a sweet refrain.
He’s yearning for the awakening
from our slumber ,
to hold hands as one
and contemplate the wonder .
A display to behold ,
our mortal dogmas exploding asunder.
Veracity...

The Temple Within
Amid the pressures of the world
it is said ,
where rapacity does rule the day ,
therein lies a portal ,
to boundless hope and happiness
awaiting our visit and stay .
available to all and sundry
a temple in which to live ,
ultramundane of our
fears and desires
where only love and peace
can it give.
Our higher conscious does
rule the day ,
faith in ones true self.
Humility , gratitude , enlightenment –
These be the measure of true wealth.
