Just this


Silence

A butterfly is fluttering around the flowers of the tree

a fan is spinning

a sensation of moisture on the upper lip

the flickering of light from the modem

Silence

sweat is breaking out as
a hot flash is going through the body

the wind rustles the leaves of the tree

Nisha barks

Silence

a calendar is swaying because of the
moving air from the fan

a deep sigh

tapping of the fingers on the keyboard

Silence


Silence




Silence

Falling back



Our natural state is the default state
through which the Unborn perceives Itself.

Through the senses it experiences the world and
in this duality it can taste, see, hear, perceive
itself in myriad ways.


An overlay of tendencies and stories
have contracted in a so called person
( the contraction is the person )
and because of this the world is perceived
as if separate and limited.

Perception takes place through this filter of a me. 
 

When we put the identity of the phantom person into question,
( Who am I? What is looking? )
and it has been seen for the illusion it is, 
we automatically fall back 
in the settings of our default state.

Effortlessly.

Seeing, perceiving going on.

No perceiver in sight.

Certainly uncertain


You are the sky. Everything else, it's just the weather.
~Pema Chodron


One of the paradoxes is that there is
an unshakable certainty.
Beyond words.
Something, somewhere solid,
that is known through being.
The ground of being,
what is, what we are.

But all the rest, the world, issues,
everything appears more and
more uncertain and unknown.
One goes through the day
and things are happening,
that is the only thing one knows.
Things are happening.
What it is or what for, one seems
to know less and less.

Just Life i guess...

A case of mistaken identity


Doubtlessly knowing who we are,
innately, without form or object.
Feeling whole and complete.
An openness which is unmoving
is not rejecting,
is not reaching out.
This is our natural state which will
become apparent once
the belief in the person has subsided.

Once the true identity has been
seen and taken on,
erroneous beliefs fall away.
Like a house of cards.

All problems of existence are there
because of a case of mistaken identity.
When there is no person to reference,
its just life happening.

Free fall


When one falls in love with awareness
one falls in love with oneself.
All one is, is instantaneous,
effortlessly accepted.
And this miraculously includes
everything else as well.
in free fall
no end to it...

Intelligence


Awareness is not only
Eternal
Peace
Stillness
Immediate
Bliss
and so fort and so fort,
( which cannot be captured in words anyway )
It is intelligent as well.

Its not a dumb ass dull something
which keeps you smiling like an idiot.
( although that also happens )
It is Intelligence itself.

It sets the planets in motion.
Emanates all existence from
the tiniest particle to the galaxies.
Grows a tree from a seed.
Pumps the blood, replaces cells.
The seasons, the tides all is moved
by awareness, as awareness
who knows what it does.

Don't you think we can take the backseat?
Give up our so called personal existence?

Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.?

Let it take you where it wants.
What are you afraid of?
Its what you are,
What we all are,
What is.
Here and Now.
