ARE YOU READY?

READY TO FIND GOD?

READY TO MEET HIM???????

I CAN TELL YOU HOW.

STOP!

STOP LOOKING!

STOP SEEKING!

STOP PACKING  AROUND YOUR GUILT,

YOU HAVE BEEN SHIRKING RESPONSIBILITY.

YOU HAVE BEEN SKIRTING TRUTH,

AVOIDING YOUR OWN ACCOUNTABILITY.

YOU KNOW THAT ALL THAT

RUNNING AROUND,

SEEKING AROUND

CHASING THE NEXT NEW TEACHING,

OR THAT ANCIENT TEACHING,

JUST LEAVES YOU DANGLING

RIGHT WHERE YOU HAVE ALWAYS BEEN.

SO,

MY LITTLE ONE,

PLEASE, PLEASE,

JUST STOP.

JUST STOP LOOKING…………….

If you really want to find God,

stop looking for Him.

and start looking for yourself.

you know,

your self.

that little one,

hidden

behind so many walls.

Hidden

behind so many defenses.

That vulnerable little angel.

That precious beauty.

That one you barely remember.

You, yes, you.

So protected that you can’t

remember who you are………….

Just stop.

Take the time.

Do the work.

When you break through all YOUR walls,

and knock down all your defenses,

you will really find

that happy little you,

and God.

You see,

 He is in there too,

with you,

just waiting for you to lay down the fear,

and open the door.

The love you missed.

The love you’ve always looked for is only within.

So just give up the search.

You already are where you need to be.

Look within.

Find you.

The kingdom of God

is within.

Love you………

PRELUDE TO LIGHT

 

LEVEL ONE

 

 

 

Once I sat in your midst.

I knew religion but not redemption.

 I knew salvation but not restoration.

I knew the rule but not the love. So

 I climbed the wall alone, and now

 I sit just on the other side.

 

~

 

          All that matters is your heart

 and God. Everything else is just an illusion.

 

 

 

          I wait for the sound of the love song

of my Lord. Within, the vast expanse

 beckons me to ride on the endless

wind of His true essence. So my

silence is only my waiting lonely heart.

 

~

 

          This love is my death, the sacrifice

 of my soul for others. May

my demise grant entrance into

 the eternal kingdom for many!

 

~

 

          This overcoming is only the lifting of

 my soul and heart above the stale essence

 of worldly pride and virtues that count for

 nothing in the true realm. All praise to

 the True Lord of all creation.

 

 

My peace is pressed

 hard beneath so many chains.

 Death can only be accomplished

when one is truly free.

 

~

 

          I have flown to the stars and back.

By what chains do you suppose to

confine me? My skill of flight is found

in the silence of the one true God.

 

 

~ 

 

 

Today in the wind I filled the entire

valley. I brushed by each tree. I

heard the song of every bird.

Each human thought had with

it the walls of its own prison.

 

~

 

          I am a happy fool. I am no one

 and really nothing. But my friend,

 I am also lost in the fullness of

the true essence. He and I are one.

 

 ~

 

 

          My peace is always seen in the

 presence of faith. No fear is more

than a saying on a t-shirt.

 

~

 

          My fall was only counted as

failure by those who were

appointed to by my judges.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          A single burning flame is too bright

 for eyes, yet it is obscured by the

 darkness of the blinded mind. I

 have seen this light and it blinded my

eyes to the darkened world.

 

~

 

          I found my beloved Ha, Ha.

He is hidden just where

 you will never look.

 

 

 ~

 

 

          Don’t be sad. Your chains upon

 me have been turned to dust. Your

 desire to confine me was a chain

 as well. If you will hear me,

 we will both be free.

 

~

 

          A funny thing this love; It is

neither a chain nor a gate.

 It carries with it the peace

 and emptiness of death. Now

once again I can fly.

 

~ 

 

 

          Where was my lover hidden?

I searched everywhere. The

last place I looked was within.

There I found a thousand universes

 and my Lover.

 

~

 

          All things and between all

things is the full yet empty likeness

of water. The true Lover is

 everywhere and everything.

 I am not ever alone.

 

~ 

 

 

          You thought we were together

 but I was alone. Then I found

Him. Now you think you

are alone, but we are truly together.

~

 

          Within is also without. There

 is no separation. All is one. To

say I found Him within is true. To

say I found Him without is also

 true. To say “I am” is true as well.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          This body was just a place to

put me till I found my way.

 

~

 

          You can own this flesh. It can

 be ruled. It can be bound with

chains. But I am free to come

and go as I please. The fetters of the

soul are gone.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          Do not pine away after that which

 cannot be owned. Do not sorrow

 after that which cannot be lost.

Turn back and find your own soul.

Own that.

 

~

 

          The king looked down from

 his window and saw the whole

world. He laughed and said it is just

 burning grass. He closed his eyes,

bowed his head and laughed again.

The true kingdom was in his heart.

 

~ 

 

          The king dressed like a peasant

and walked among men.

He knew the truth.

 

~

 

          The man who could see well,

walked all his life in darkness.

The blind man had seen the

 light from his very birth.

 

 

~ 

 

 

 

          Aha, so your secret is out.

Good and evil were a sham. Blessing

and cursing a myth. The path

 hidden behind the world of thinking

and reason was as always, brightly lit.

This path is the gentle humming

stream of contentment.

 

 

~ 

  

 

          At the top of this mountain I am free.

I hear no voice. There is no tug

 on my heart. True and false are not

applying. Were I to shed this flesh

I would be no freer. It is the wings

 of my soul that have carried me up

 here on the wind of your love.

 

 

  

~  

 

          Peace was always there. But

my adulterous heart had wandered

away from you. Peace my peace, my

 glorious Lord and King, bind

 me in the dungeon of your palace

with chains of love.

 

~

 

          Sitting in the cold snow;

 being baked by the hot sun.

You are in neither and both.

 But it is the cool gentle breeze

 that awakened me and kissed my heart.

 

~ 

 

 

          All too often it is the idle rich that seek

the spirit. I must speak words of

hope to the poor.

 

~

 

          Preparing yet a green highway

 in a dry and thirsty land, I have

 found the first gate to be the soul’s

 effort of forgiveness. “Give and it

shall be given unto you.”

 

 

~ 

  

 

          Like the thunder of hell, the sounds

 of the chains of my imprisoned brothers

resounds daily in my ears, yet they

will not hear as I cry unto them

 with the voice of true freedom.

 

 

~ 

  

 

          The rules and laws of the religious

 man will be the legacy of his eternal

death. Look to the skies my brothers.

 Look farther, look to the stars and beyond.

Look yet farther, look within.

There you will find the glorious majesty

of your eternal King, and your freedom.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          Why have I found this highway to

be full of jagged stones. For this

 highway to be clear the

 heart must be pure.

 

~

 

          In the Word of His power my

soul was spoken forth. That

Word is yet speaking and will speak.

 

 

~ 

 

  

          Awake, awake! Open your eyes.

Open your eyes. The whole earth,

 all of it, is filled with His glory. From

the slightest blade of grass, to the greatest

mountain peak, and the fullness of the

expanse between the two, plus so much

more, is the eternal essence of the one true Lover.

So awake, open your eyes. That which your

 eye falls upon, if truly seen, is capable

 of manifesting the fullness of truth,

the Great I AM.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          O Lord, teach me to cast aside

the stale bread of this earthly bond,

and I shall be sustained with the

 sweet sugars of your love.

~

 

          I have found my self the one, at

the very center between the lover

and the loved, between the giver

and the receiver. There are

not two anymore but only the one.

 And the one is all. As I become nothing,

I become the one.

~

 

          It is the intense beauty of the one

who loves me, that has left me broken,

bare, and crushed, without strength or will.

 There is no hope of recovery and I have

found myself begging for more.

 

~

 

          The scale of justice is the lonely

beating heart of your prophet,

who waits for the release granted

 by your love and tender words.

          I have found freedom inside these walls.

 The mind and reason are the prison

that I so proudly built, but like

 the flowing waters, you have shown

me the free path of the stream of

mindless contentment.

~

 

          Stillness, silence, beauty and peace,

were always here. Just beyond the

killing thought or the proud building

blocks of reason, or the deadly knife of envy:

stillness, silence, beauty and peace.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          Who are the masters that will help

us peek back into the moment and

help us find our way? What is the price

 or value of such help? Where will I lie

my self down for the emerald treasure

of such a friend as that? Help me find the way.

 

 

~ 

         

 

 

          I have fallen. The happy fool is me.

 I have seen myself and God. It’s a

great mystery. I am the happy fool,

the clown, the drowning man and God.

 Find that. Yes, I say, search and find that.

~

 

          This is the magic of an earthly pen:

to write the beauty of love on paper

for all to see. Love is the perpetual

death with joy, laid down moment by

 moment for others, as though the life

was only leaves falling from trees.

 

 

 ~

 

 

          I have caressed His face. I am

 undone. When I thought of myself, I

found I was not worthy. So I quit

thinking. Casting self aside, I was able

 to find God and this me and caress the

 face of the Sun, the beauty of my

 Lord and King.

 

 

~ 

         

 

          Chopping, chopping, we strike at

one another not knowing any truth.

 From our pulpits and steeple houses

 we arm the ignorant to bite and

 devour one another. Stop brothers.

 Stop sisters. Gaze into the eternal eyes

 of God and find that you are all

only one. Stop hurting yourself and God.

 

 

~

       

 

You are the Gift. I am the gift also.

 God is the giver. You are not my

brother or sister, you are me. God

is the gift and all are one. Two

or three is the great deception.

 

~

 

          I am not writing a book.

 It is really more of a map.

This life of time is the road.

Your heart is the motorcycle.

Find your way home, and ride carefully.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          Say to yourself, “Please stop hurting me.”

Then do it. Love is the only truth.

 To love one or to love all is only

 to love yourself. To love God is to look

 beyond the illusion and just be.

 Say to yourself, “Please stop hurting me.”

Then do it.

 

~ 

 

  

I saw you sitting alone today.

You were thinking about me, but

 God was looking over your shoulder

 asking why you felt so alone. Please

 wake up. Please stop and open your

 eyes. He is here right now. Forget me.

 I am the illusion too.

 

 

~ 

          

 

It is so hard to see when my eyes

are filled with this fantasy. Peeking

just beyond the world back into the

 moment I got a glimpse of truth and

saw that I was blinded by the gray colors

of the great illusion. So I chose to let go,

 to stop having care and concern. I only

live now, somewhere in the heart of

the center of the moment. When are you?

 

 

~ 

 

 

Like true justice, all water flows

 to level. He that has two must give

to him that has none. Then I know

 that I shall eat each day. The Lord

has been fed, and we shall

 all sleep well tonight.

 

~

 

          For a lifetime I dreamed a dream.

 Then I woke up and found

that I could let go, for I was

 no longer alone.

 

 

~

 

 

          I have shown you only

 what you could see from your

own window. Were you but able

 to lay down all attachment and climb

 from your self made prison, you would

see so much more; the all, the nothing,

the One.

~

 

          Peace, peace, I cry from the quiet places,

but you still have preferences

and only know the one,

as two or more.

~

 

 

          High upon my hill there is no strife,

nothing to own or possess, or protect.

 If you find everything to be the One,

what will you defend?

~

          Fear is the lie that binds you

to the place where you will never

know God. Peace and contentment

are trail marks on the path of life.

 Lay down your backpack,

 and your clothes, and all you try

to drag along, and hike naked

and free to the mountaintops,

the stars and beyond.

~

 

 

          Like a yes or a no,

somewhere between the world

and God lies a simple decision.

But the world, like a prison

or the arms of a beautiful woman,

will hope to never let you go.

~

 

          In the tipping glass,

the water always remains level.

 Now my caste has no bounds.

I am the king and the beggar.

 I laugh, because once you know

the Lord, there is never

 a need to beg.

~

 

 

          Free of passion and desire,

 I walk on the wind and dance

 in the treetops. There is no

 longer any effort to the climb.

 

~

 

          Love is this water

that has found level between all men.

 You would better be able

 to withhold air from your lungs

 than to stop the flow of

His serving love.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          I found that the eagle

 has been calling me. He whispers,

“Come up here. It is easy

on these winds. Best of all,

no one will follow you.”

 

~

 

          When God calls, He calls

only my soul. I want to take

everyone with me, but he will hide

 if I do not come alone. He is

everything and He is the

 private secret lover.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          His call does not cease.

 It is the drum that beats

 with the melody of true life;

 the rhythm of all existence.

~

 

          You keep tying your ropes

around me. You keep handing me

bricks to build walls. You try to make

a rule that will stop the rain from

 landing on your roof. That

which is, is free. Give up. Stop trying.

 Die if you have to.

 

~

 

 

          You asked me for peace.

I was surprised that you couldn’t see it.

 It was right there under your

imagination,

and fears.

~

          Love stopped on your corner today

and whispered your name to me.

 We talked of your thoughts and selfish

ways without understanding why?

Why don’t you stop blaming and judging

and just love? We talked for a bit then

 love went on its way.

 

~

 

 

          You must build a very wide nest for love.

Everyone must be able to fit in it with you,

and everyone must be welcome.

~

 

          True socialization

 is only the pouring forth of love

from the cup

 of silent intercourse.

 

 

~ 

 

          A disciple followed me up

 the mountain. When she saw my

 brother the bear, she screamed.

She was afraid he would eat her,

so he did.

 

~

 

          The first gate is the gate

 of forgiveness. You must go

through this gate to go

 through this gate. So you

 must open the gate as well.

 

 

~ 

 

 

 

          Standing alone at the garden gate,

 I cannot seem to obliterate the

 faltering gray images of this world

 to find the resplendent colors

of the true garden. I am indeed undone.

We all truly stand each moment

 before the gate of paradise.

Shall we go in?

 

 

     ~    

 

 

          The time has come to reveal the veil

 that conceals the everlasting heavens.

You are trapped in the illusion

of the colorless self. You, the self,

 are the veil.

 

~

 

          All that matters is your heart and God.

Everything else is just an illusion.

 ~

 

          Religion is a fortress.

Imagination is a walled compound.

 The mind is a high security prison.

 Escape quickly you crazy worldly soul.

You have the keys to open the gates.

It is your surrendered,

vulnerable heart that sets you free.

Contentment!

~

          On the mountains you held my hand.

 In the yard you made the tree dance.

 You are always there to reassure

 my forever doubting heart.

~

 

          Open the eyes of this simple one.

 One night, as through the window

of a passing train, I caught a glimpse

of a small lamp. It sat in the middle

of a path that led to your golden city.

 Open the eyes of your simple one.

A glimpse is not enough.

~

 

          I have trod to the edge of the world.

 Behind me lies the life of the deadly

 empty self. Before me lies only a single step.

 In this place, fear and unbelief

have become my greatest chains.

 

 

~

 

 

          A line has been drawn

and I have seen my soul.

I have made all the wrong choices.

The line shines brightly on my soul.

I am all and every evil. Turn away

 from me for your own sake. I will be

 the one to disappoint you. The light of this

 line is so bright,  that it burns away

the hypocrite, and reveals the truth.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          Flying just above the treetops

 there are no limits to this drunken monk.

 Go where I will, you are there

 filling my empty cup

and winking at me.

~

 

          You are the light on my path

that leads me to these strange

and unlawful places. The clouded mind

 of religious laws is fading and I find

myself holding the knife that cuts the cancers

from my soul. It is these strange and unlawful

places that weaken and destroy

the self reliant fraud.

 

 

~

 

 

          The day I fell,

 is the day I lost control.

The day I lost control,

is the day I surrendered to these rushing torrents.

 The day I surrendered is the day

my weak eyes began to open.

 Now I bow to my master providence

 and submit in contentment

before my angry judges.

 

  

~ 

  

 

          There are claw marks on the back

 of the one who flees from the tiger.

 Rather turn and face your

 brother always.

 

~

 

          The day I found myself flying

among the stars, I found them

 to be just as bright, and just as small.

We are only limited or intimidated

 by our perceptions.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          Just picture God as holding

everything tightly to our planet.

 We, the trees, the animals, the buildings,

 and everything else are not falling off

because of His loving steady gentle pressure.

I laugh because we always think we

know which is up and which is down.

Our upside is always down.

 

 

~ 

 

  

          A goose, a deer, a bullet,

 a pawn, a king, a dollar, a fist,

 I have seen God in all these

 and so much more: a kiss, a whisper,

 a glance, a cloud shaped like the

very serpent himself.

~

 

          Is it a woman that stands between

man and God, or is it his passions,

desires, and appetites? You are the only

one standing in your way. The lust

 for the illusion is your chain

 today my brothers.

 ~

 

          Close your eyes. Turn off the illusion.

 Find your true self. Find God.

Two is the lie. There is only the One.

Don’t get lost in the millions

 that are the illusion.

Close your eyes.

 

~

 

          You are me and I am you.

To say I am Christ is true as well,

 for as one of the least of these,

I was fed today. There is only

the One.

 

 

~

 

 

          Between you the million,

 and you the One, lies a strange gate.

 This gate is somewhere between your

heart and the edge of your body.

Blow the gate up, and we will fly together

across the heavens.

~

 

          I saw a spider on a mirror.

I saw my own reflection in the

same mirror. God is traveling the world

looking for His reflection.

 

 

 ~

          Always give. Always forgive.

 Always love. Always comfort.

Always help. Always share. I hear

your every thought. I see if your hand

is extended to take or give.

Don’t try to be like me,

be me.

~

 

          Show me the coin you have

 hidden in your pocket. Have you

saved it for the needs of the friend

 or yourself? The money of the giver

 just falls out of the sky.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          Why so many gates?

Why so many thoughts of self?

 Is the king content with riches and power?

It is the empty cup that can be filled.

The empty cup is never seen in this world.

It is never restricted.

 I am always tipping my cup over.

 

 

~ 

 

 

          Pride keeps sneaking up on me.

 It is the deadly lion that someone

 must be feeding. Is it I that fed this killer?

Have I scorned humility? Have I traded

treasure for the noose of death?

This pride is the chain of the many.

Against what or whom does

the One measure itself?

~

          I was sure I had seen myself today.

 He was sitting in a very high place.

 So I quickly hid in the lowest place I

could find, where this tyrant would

never look nor find me.

~

 

 

          To rise half a step above nothing,

 is to miss the all completely.

 

~

 

          This path makes no sense

 to the structured or religious mind.

 It is the strange wanderings of the

 perfect shepherd that have captivated

my soul and crushed my perceptions

on the path of no self.

 ~

 

 

          I am longing for another glimpse of

the rainbow flames in your gorgeous eyes.

 I am longing for another touch from

 your hand that leaves me as dead

and breathless. It seems deadly,

 but I’ll take the chance.

 

~

 

          I woke up this morning

 and told myself that time is almost over.

Step in the path now.

Yes my friends,

only now.

 ~

 

          When are you?

When is God?

 “I am”

is only now.

 

~

 

          It is only while there is yet breath

 in the body that you must find Him.

 There is no progress in the grave. Do not pick

 up the deadly notion that you will know

Him after death, if you did not know Him

while yet breathing. There is yet a little time.

Waste not another moment. Find detachment.

Find your way, now,

for there is no later.    

    ~

 

          I know your true poverty.

You call it riches. But I see beyond the veil.

 Empty your pockets and fill your heart.

 Be not chained to this world,

this illusion. Break free.

 Find detachment.

Find peace.

Love!

~

 

          Within each of us is the child

that remembers its way back.

This world lulls that child to sleep

so that the way will be eternally lost.

 Let go of this world little one, and awake to the truth.

 For only those who are awake will

 find their way home.

~

 

 

          With my eye, I see your eye

 and where it is turned. Turn away

 from the world and look to Me.

Look toward your

 true home.

~

 

          Today is not a chance, but a gift.

In order to receive it,

 you must give it away.

 

                  

~ 

 

 

          This world will leave its mark

 on the flesh of those who are able

to really turn away.

 

~

 

          So what I say unto one,

 I say unto all. Turn away from this world

 and leave everything behind,

 down to the smallest binding thought.

Live with me and all your days in the flesh

 will be days of contentment.

 

 

 ~

 

 

Detachment from self,

and the world, will be your path.

The world will hate you.

 It hates what it cannot control.

Cast your gaze into mine and

 come away with me.

~

 

          I was about to say, I love you,

when I saw the

 inadequacy of the phrase.

 

                  

 

          I reached out to the universe

 and beyond for the true communicator

of my heart, and the final perfect phrase

 was gifted to me.

 

                   ~

 

             I AM YOU

                   ~

I am you, is the finishing

 of all earthly thought

and spiritual searching.

~

 

          Whether you are my brother,

 my sister, my enemy

 or my lover,

 I am you.

~

 

          Whether it is I

who says it,

or God,

I am you.

~

          You see I am the king

and I am the pauper.

I am the strong and I am the weak.

 I am everything and all,

I am content.

 I am you.

~

 

          Whether I am looking to God,

man, the eagle, or the little child,

 I am you.

~

          Why would I hurt you

or take from you?

 I am you.

 

~

 

          Why will my eye lust

 for that which is yours,

when I am you?

 

       ~

           

 

          Why would I start a war

 to enslave or bind you? 

I am you.

~

          Why would I steal your peace?

I am you.

~

 

          I am God.

 I am man.

I am every molecule

in the universe.

 I am you.

 

           ~       

 

 

          Look at me.

See me.

 Love me.

I am you.
