SHIVA


i breathe you into me divine one


your essence is my bliss

your delight is my gift

your compassion saturates me

your wisdom provides for me

your fearlessness guides me


i breathe you into me lover of life

fear less of death

bringer of delight


saturated i am full from within

your presence is ever present

i am never without you


knowing you are everywhere, everyone and ever present

i am one with you never without


i feel you with every breath

i see you in every photon

i taste your essence

you are soma to my life

the lover finding the beloved

actualization of the divine dream


allowing the flow of time

to smooth the sharpness of own design

the glow of the present is the gift of the radiance of now.


detachment from expectations

moves us into this flow of ever present being


release the grip, release the banks

feel the flow pushing ever pushing into a newer now.


more than any possible dream or imaginary place

the adventure is real

taste it

touch it

love it.



om na ma shiva ya


breath is life

without breath there is no life

laugh, scoff or shrug it off

when you lose your breath

you lose your life


delay is no way to make your life pay

move in - move on - move with

breath


actualize your greatest gift

and realize your renewed senses

smell and taste

touch and feel


the way through is to move into the breath

one breath at a time


each inhalation fill with new life

each exhalation release toxins of the past


celebrate to express you are here



once you have seen the present

the reward is showing it to others


get a grip your not going any where


the present comes to you

you just have to be in the right place


the place is the ever present

not lost in projecting the future

or bogged down in the past


the present cannot be a thing

only a transformation

of having not - to having all


possessions are controlled by man’s laws


possessions are re possessed by natures law


once you see the difference

the present is ever present

and man’s law is as fragile

as the paper it is written on

because no thing exists!



learning to let go takes a life time


learning to accept there is eternal space

learning space is eternal and time is endless


we see two dimensions from our cells

the depth we can perceive is immeasurable

while the time we will spend there is unimaginable


plotting on this axis of space and time

we find new dimensions and endless perspectives


learning we are actively involved to traverse these axes

until we find center

where we are exactly the same distance from

every point



multidimensional

we learn the formulas of existence

and explore the boundaries


reality


re address your allies

as necessary for your inter actions


detach from any negative perspective

and your allies are abundant


overcoming the tendency to scapegoat

and lose control of our cells


take control

being centered

the periphery becomes a passing perspective

rather than overwhelming

and the source of our woes


detached we observe the process of well being

as natural and our nature


returning to nature

we can address reality

as a sharing process


magic or miracles?


engage your self in the objective

and the outcome resembles the formula


pray for a miracle

and you find some one else getting it


magic and miracles are driven by

will power and won’t power


magic requires following a formula

as realistic as making bread


miracles require a bakery

a baker a banker

in other words

some one else does all the work

and we get the goods


magic takes effort

with will power to define the outcome


miracles take all your effort

watching some one else take care of you


magic empowers our mind and spirit

miracles – well do you mind waiting


being intellectual

we gather information

until our brain hurts


being detached

we breathe into life

not through it

then intelligence comes to life


intelligence takes in others opinions

and lives for them


detachment

gives to others their opinions

and moves on


this creative process shows us

the expansiveness of life


being detached

we can begin to recognize the difference

between

our intelligent and our emotional bodies


feeling the difference

we initiate our emotional body

as a working part of our psyche



move your brain into your heart

and let go of it from between your legs


the multiplicity of love leaves out

no aspect of it


enjoying the multiplicity of love

the creative process

is initiated, maintained and utilized


taking care, being care

see

the outcome is more valuable

than possessions or power


empower your allies

and be empowered by their presence


teaching this multiplicity

is a broadening of your own heart

now you are

the purpose and love



to do what is needed


all you have to do is

listen breathe then share


universal unfolding is not about bondage

it is about release


bondage of the mind begins within

liberation of the mind is to be without


connected to the universal

multitudes of options are available


all that is needed is to choose one

to be full and filled


having what we need sharing becomes imperative


liberation has nothing to do with

power possessions or manipulation



when you find you

you review your situation over time


you came here knowing

there was someone

to attend to your every need


we search wide

and we search high


we identified with the external

and searched when we knew not what to do


searching wide we broadened our perspective

by homogenizing with humanity

with this endeavor we gain wisdom


searching high we heighten our perspective

by approaching the divine

with this endeavor we gain compassion


stop searching

and utilize what you have found

you have a new view




the way of words


airy bridges pointing to illusions

connecting different worlds


words illusory as the wind

describing the workings of our mind


breath

another airy connection

to the physical creative process


unleashed breath takes us to where we are


words spoken

jettison our being into the past


words listened to

remember what can be

and positions us for the future


the way of words

vibrate us into familiar vibrations

which comfort us


the way of words

create chasm of despair when they do

not bridge us

to the truth



the outcome is a reflection

of the intention - while following the formula


the wisdom of the mind categorizes

what works and what doesn’t


reflection induces the memory of the process

and refines it to adapt to the present


evolution implores our senses to be well

and to be compassionate

with those who are not


reduce the outcome to the final solution

and re view the elemental holding it all together


the appropriateness of the present

introduces the formula

the resources

and you as the tool


the artist cannot learn from others

only through doing


we can teach what we were taught

or we can expand

and teach what we have learned


what we were taught was too contrived


what we learned had to happen


the universal perspective incorporates us all


a judged perspective isolates

the haves from the have nots

all registered


the brilliance of the sun

is not selective in illuminating the earth


where did the idea of power isolate us?

so true wisdom

is condemned

and dogma and dysfunctional processing

are rewarded

learning to let go takes a life time


learning to accept there is eternal space

learning space is eternal and time is endless


we see two dimensions from our cells

the depth we can perceive is immeasurable

while the time we will spend there is unimaginable


plotting on this axis of space and time

we find new dimensions and endless perspectives


learning we are actively involved to traverse these axes

until we find center

where we are exactly the same distance from

every point



multidimensional

we learn the formulas of existence

and explore the boundaries

passion and fulfillment are keys

they unlock the threshold of trust


trust a passionate way to pursue life


adventure comes from fearlessness

fearless we find strength

our key

to pass through the next threshold


starting over

amazing as it seems

we will leave it all behind

so there is no thing to bring


connection to the source gives strength

to observe our own dysfunctional processing

and re tune and re mind our selves


we are moving on!


if we don’t notice

we stay attached to painful situations

and die

new beginnings



excel from the energy of releasing our possessions


not knowing what is next is the mystery


all adventurers seek not to solve

but to experience the solution

it is all god


the present brings us to a place

we know how we arrived but

do we know what the gift is now?


new ideas

new adventures


do we know how to handle the gift?


give it away


share it


there is enough of the solution

to dissolve the dogma

at all odds - the soul protects the psyche


over coming our own processes

the ones resisting the breakthrough

of our own nature


to return to the source

is not a place to go

but re-membering the one-ness

and totality of the union


separate from the source

we are lost


merged with the soul

our responsibility is to remain one with it


staying well and re-membering

the source is available now - to heal

being one with the source -cures all


not playing "the game" beats

winning or losing


work is not a four letter word

work is the solution to be one with the source

but call it celebration!

polarity


balances our protector and inner child

bi polar lets

the child protect while the warrior plays


a disaster course at all odds

nurture the warrior and protect the nurturer


taking on the polarity at ease

with the anima and the animus


competition

a childish play

defeats the warrior

while asleep


realize the totality of both


war on our cells is

destruction of our psyche


will the warrior to separate

reality and fantasy

and let the child

go - glow – grow

to win or lose - a deceitful process

insecurity -

needing something outside of our selves

to resolve our wholeness


within our fire smolders

waiting for a breath of fresh air


to stimulate life

waiting for now -to explode

in an ecstatic way


sever the bonds of suffering

by allowing

our allies to replace the fear of ourselves


winning and having it all or losing it all

the work is unbearable


choosing the neutral zone

without having to win or to lose

allows alternatives to enter

which winning or losing disempowered


celebration requires participation

as validation

go out of your mind



you will find it is a good place to go



trust the way


share the divine


dancing is a long way from possessing

breathing takes us from our mindless ness


celebration a good expression of our well-ness



liberation an expression

of our wisdom and participation

an eloquent synthesis of now


the inner guides teach us to trust our inner child


enjoy the break


touch what the divine has lined up

death by delight


celebration eliminates the oppression of the mind


remove the problem

mortality


and the solution


immortality

beckons us toward the divine


the consistent

the ever present

change


realization of change

unleashes possibilities


losing control releases

surrender


the divine waits for the past to be sacrificed


as the price

of delight

letting go evolves us

release to the universal unfolding



release

an action of acceptance



intention over ruling expectations

intention to overcome

personal and cultural boundaries



over stepping these boundaries

into a realm of compassion

were all energy works together

toward the present


release the less mature perspectives


going with the flow requires

release

of possessiveness - of expectations -

of self serving

ideas


there are still some emotions

worth investigating

just do it

be creative follow your bliss


there is no road to it

there is no listing in the yellow pages

there is no www.link


bliss fills us from the base up

ecstasy is a multi vibrational process

it shakes us up at all levels


it stops us in place

it magnetizes us to an unknown element


we lose our appetite in the presence of bliss

only to find someone to hug


bliss opens our heart into

a chest of drawers


in bliss the moment itself is full

expressing it is eloquent

in bliss

radiance draws us like a moth

toward the divine light


fly into it

it is worth it

rewinding


the beginning is the end


find the objective holds all the energy

of the creator


magnetic attraction rewinds the polarity

into a continuous flow


utilizing this power

the imperial and the power full prevail


magnetic energy attracts the opposite and repels the same


the attraction of allies is the energy of the same

pushing each other onward

in the same direction -outside our selves


allies pull us together to embark on a journey


a place none have gone before

and the allegiance becomes legendary


sharing is an act of love

putting things in order


re claim the responsibilities of the psyche


re store the core empower the union

of the mind body and soul


re evaluate what the intellect works best with (quiet)


the intuition needs the quiet to be seen


the emotions need to be still then there are no waves


the creativity needs encouragement and compassion


emotional fulfillment stems from

the allegiance

of the tact of the intellect

the finesse of the intuition

and the empowerment of creativity


re joyce

when they are in allegiance

and chill when they are engaged


earth water air fire

ground love clear celebrate

wanting what you have


it took the past to arrive at this point

the price


it takes the future to explore

what is available now

the outcome


it takes the present to see

it is all here

a gift


a great solar explosion

created our organic solution

seeing us the planets spun

in unique dances creating

patterns for the solar dance
