When my dog is off its leash,
I suffer
Seen and retrieved,
Calm once again
It breathes
This body
This life
Endless suffering
Endless love
The paradox
That is not a true paradox at all
________________
This life
This source
Magic
Without a visible apparatus
From beyond the senses
Come the senses
From beyond this form
Control this form
Hand outstretched
Like a painting on its easel
Each stroke is it
Each mark is set
Again and again
The painters paint
Tears, laughter, love and joy, anger and sorrow
What could ever be missing
What could ever be True
________________
Dear friends
You showed me the Way
But if you should fall
I will still weep for you
I will still weep for myself
________________
What use is there in life?
What use is there in the deeper knowledge
And secrets of the Ancients
You may know
But you are still an eternal Fool, Abu
________________
This is your life
Use it well
Use it well
Comments
Sight, sound, smell and touch
How can you know what is beyond, or that there is a beyond
When you are all these things yourself
Bound by consciousness
Life as consciousness
Awaken!
Was the Buddha's only invitation
To life
To reality
And I loved you
Together we strolled through
This Earth
These waters
This land
But as in all things
That too had to end
_______
Living is life
And living is also resurrection
The eternal opportunity to be born again
And to live life anew!
You are given this chance
Why do you not live it
Why do you not cherish the Love that has been granted
to you
For you
My Beloved One
My Cherished Cherished being
Was it only yesterday I sat at your feet
Wishing to know the unknowable
Longing to learn the secrets of the Masters
Wishing is doing
And knowing is hard
They say it is not true
The Buddha's teachings
How I laugh!
How I cry
The beauty of the songbird
Can never be diminished
But how funny it is even doubted
When it works so well
So truly well
Don't stop believing
Don't stop
Your Heart can take you Home
Where it has always been
Awaiting its one true Lord
