Song

There comes a time
when outer teachers are no more needed.
Your inner teacher takes over
And there is a sweet ongoing mantra or satsang or prayer taking over.
And sometimes there can be a desire to meet with an outer teacher again.
You go and you find that you yourself were the teacher all allong.
This theacher unfolds more and more in the stillness of your heart.
Once you get familiar with its song,
you recognize it everywhere;
even in the midst of the deepest depression.
It sings and never stops.
You are the song, the singer and the singing…

Trauma

Sometimes
the wounds
are touched
by vibrant ripples
in a conversation

It feels like
tingelings
and tears may drop
and in the heart
they drop on softness

It does not feel like trauma
it does feel more
like little kisses
caressing ancient scars
of what has been

It makes it easier
to feel the pain of them
who still have open wounds
and hurt and hurt and hurt

Come sit with me
and give your wounded heart
I will caress it
and will only leave
when time has come
for you
to leave …

Center


Everyone of the seven billion in this world
believes that they are
the center of
the world
And in a sense
they all are

the center

The eye of an insect
consists of
innumerable facets

that give the insect
the view of
its world
Each facet is a part
of the one eye
of the one
organism

You are the facet
of the One
of the centerless centre

which is You …
