Spell Bound

Waves like of a tuning fork
resonates through the body
I relax and let go
of all my desires
I can feel my toes

Now with intention I expand
filling the whole universe
with my soul

Breathing in, I close the light of day
breathing out gently, it all comes alive again

How is this not ordinary?

My eyes turns into constellations
and I loose count
of how many times you've said
I love you

wishing you were here
brings you closer

My will, I realize
is a mighty sword
to sweep this night away

Everything is self-evident

Seeing freed from misidentification one sees the world in its true light, and everything is seen as it is. False as false and true as true. All things perfect as they are. Of one taste, of one flavor. All being an expression of THAT which lays behind, -the never changing nature. Seeing all in this true perspective one knows how to act in accordance with the changing circumstances. Everything and everybody are revealed by their appearances. Nothing is hidden. All being of one taste, there is nothing to avoid. Seeing freed from belief in separate self-hood reveals a limitless and timeless objective view. In THAT oneself and everything else is seen clearly just as it is. Scrutinizing this view one understands the inherent unreality of this world, one understands non-duality and one understands the futility of trying to know with the mind. The mind looses its power and is rightly brought down from its pedestal, to serve instead of rule. This seeing is the goal and the path. There is no other way. Establish yourself in it and avoid the temptation to indulge in argumentation. Know it for yourself.

As long as you harbor any ideas, any doubts about the absolute nature of yourself and as long as you can't with ease relax into this seeing, that will still obstruct you to be able to see clearly for more than a short period of time. Any condition that is not seen through will immediately hinder clear perception. Pride, anger, desire etc. if not seen in time will hamper your ability to act appropriately. As long as there is any need to keep yourself at arms length, at a safe distance, there haven't been a breakthrough and it will always keep you from true union, true love. Give up the idea of personal ego hood. Realize that there is nothing to protect, nothing to justify. Dare to give up the idea of being special.

Seeing things the way they really are can only be done from the not-known, and ones beautiful ability to respond rests solely on ones knowing of its radiance of love. Love is the power and the glory. Let it shine and transform your life. Stay in touch always with your source, your true nature. Rest your desires in that hole of nothingness. Let them disappear in the burning light of the absolute. Bring your doubts, thoughts and feelings to that glowing wholeness of your being and see them burn up. When you act, You act. You decide. You have control. You act from the knowing and presence of total awareness, of the divine. Fall back, dive within, go deeper inside. Keep disappearing. Go on, move into the source, the hole, the field of nothing-whatsoever. Back to origin. Enter not-knowing and be present from that view, from that perspective. Now, always, forever more. Let any desire that tempt you to leave that place be burned by the fact of its ultimate falseness revealed by its own appearance. Maya is destroyed the moment it appears. You can see Maya appear, see it last, and see it disappear. You see form, you see it change. You see cause and effect, you see distinctions. Any thing seen is Maya. Everything cognized is Maya. Maya is also all things still unseen. Even an idea is Maya. You are Maya. Being free one is enlightened by all things. Life is shining up its illusion. A spectacle of light and form, a magical dance of light. A mirage, an illusion, a dream. Free to roam around. Free to sport in all various realms, blending with the conditions at hand. Free to ramble wherever at will. Always knowing ones source, always in touch. A free spirit. Free from form and freely using form. Maya is everything, you are nothing.

Easter

(Translation BabelFish)

EASTER

The stone rolled under the pressure of the light
And the eyes of the guards dwellt too long.
Under the shock the seals jumped
And it was a dawn in the night where the stars faded.

Of your sudden appearance, one does not know null chronicle
Except that which burns in our hearts.
This day, you'd be printed on all cosmos
And our mouths, now, could not remain closed.

Serge Lanoë - May 1996

---- Original in french

PÂQUES

    La pierre a roulé sous la pression de la lumière
    Et les yeux des gardes se sont appesantis.
    Sous le choc les scellés ont sauté
    Et ce fut une aube dans la nuit où les étoiles ont pâli.

    De ton surgissement, on ne connaît nulle chronique
    Sauf celle qui brûle en nos coeurs.
    Ce jour, tu t'es imprimé sur tout le cosmos
    Et nos bouches, maintenant, ne sauraient rester closes.

Serge Lanoë - mai 1996

I have one desire

http://universalaikidojo.gaia.com — Sun, 04 May 2008 05:30:30 GMT

As you rise
I want to rise with you

When you speak
I want to be your tongue

As you listen
I overhear

You find it funny
like an echo

Being one in this relationship before we were two

Like twins
one thinking, the other speaking

No but I...
on it goes till we lost sight
of who's who

Blessed union, too wonderful to comprehend

When you lie down
I will sit on your bed

Waiting till you get up again
mimicking your every move

It almost annoys you
but you find yourself lifted

Strong arms
knowing your every move

You take a chance
handing over your will

We hold our breath...

I don't know how you caught up with me
Never thought you find me on this little planet

Long time in the coming
but better late then never

You rushed in
and I was born a second time

Wrestling with my new inheritance
it turns into play

Go on, you crazy fool
I won't stand in your way
no more

A many-splendored thing

Spirit filled light
filters into my chest
soft mist unlocks a stony heart
Not my will but Yours
this communion is what makes us human
when my friend came home
her daughters naturally fell into grace
the most natural thing
for those we love
while her friends questioned this
and questioned that
Disbelief is such a grieving matter
This divine nature is what we share
when we invite Jesus into our lives
Gods grace is a place in which we live
a room where lovers see eye to eye

Blushing Heart

Coral roses fill the room,

Your presence, your sweetness, heat

Roars out as stillness

I'm engulfed with Laughter

Fear has vanished from my lips

I speak,

The universe is listening to my song

Papaji:

The force of reckoning has come

To claim me as its own

I bow down

Grateful

Blissful, wanting nothing

Than to speak of this to all who come

To fill the water in the vase

And grow the leaves....

Without plans

http://universalaikidojo.gaia.com — Wed, 06 Jun 2007 14:35:15 GMT

Without plans I live with You.

Without thinking about you, without seeing you.
Knowing nothing, what can I be but happy?
Knowing nothing means to face You. Facing you, you bring a smile to my lips.

Isn't this the fountain of life?
