Mortality

Mortality

The more diseases we discover
The more pathogens we find
The more we come to realize
That the body will die

The desire to be immortal
The desire to live a long life
The desire for health
Originate from the intuitive feeling
That there is some”thing” in us
That is immortal

This some”thing” is not a thing
It has no qualities you can perceive
It is always present and aware
It never leaves you

What is the “thing” that is always there?
What was there when you were
a child
a teenager
a grown up
a senior

When you were
happy or sad
sick or healthy
stressed or relaxed?

The “I” was and is always there
And you can call “Me”
God
Mystery
Awareness
Consciousness
The Great Unknown

I have no name
I have no form
and yet
I have all names
I have all forms

And I
Am
the Love
with
which
you
Love
Life …

The moth and the flame

The sun has set at the horizon. No wind.
The candle lit and nocturnal noises come from evening distance
The stars appear, one by one
Breathing in, breathing out
Hands resting, watching

Moths circle the candle light
Closer, closer they come
irresistable drawn to the light.

A little crackle
and then the flame burns quietly again
not affected by what happened.

When has the moth become the flame?
When has the flame become the moth?
The moth in the flame is the flame.

We circle around the light that will burn us
The light will only burn the form
What never was born and never died
the Light that you are
Merges again
with the Light
that you were
are
will be …

New Year

More like You in the New Year

New Year

Did you ever wonder
why Truth feels more like you?

Did you ever wonder
why Beauty feels more like you?

Did you ever wonder
why Compassion feels more like you?

I invite you
to sit with these questions
and be still

There comes a moment
when Truth, Beauty and Compassion
will let you know
that You are That …
