The space
where I find home
I share with
dogs, a cat, the birds,
the insects and the trees,
the mice and all the hedgehocks
the plants and what’s unseen
beneath the surface
This space
does not belong to me alone
No borders for the mice
or traffic rules for birds
We share this space
and find our homes in it
I share the space
with humans
who feel that they are lost
It’s good to know
that home
is only
space …
When you think you are something:
a christian, a muslim, a jew, a buddhist, a hindu,
an atheist, a carpenter, a painter, a writer, a friend,
a man, a woman, a child, a mother, a father, …
And when you believe that you are what you think you are,
You can go inside and do this meditation:
Without using your
thoughts, memories, associations, perceptions, emotions,
are you a christian, not a christian or neither
Be still and wait what comes up …
And do it with the next and the next and the next …
No word can describe what you are;
no word; no word; no word …
When I have died
do forget me
Forget
who you thought
I was
Be me
in everything
Find me
in everything
Be you
in me
Be me
in you
Be …
I love to judge
and say the words out loud
to me
And hear
what I can tell me
about me
And feel what hurts
and what I have not found
in me, till then …
I love the world
which gives me
all I need
for me
always
And realize
it is always only Me …
The mind
always looking for more
always looking for better, newer,
a new post
a better car
more comments
The soul
resting, smiling,
at peace, content,
watches the mind do its job
and is there
when the mind
falls in the heart
and is still …
When surrender calls
and you answer her calling
then there is the endless falling
into the silent arms
of the Beloved …
She will cradle you
and whisper:
“You are Me” …
Praying is discovering and seeing, in ourselves, that we are light, innocence, peace. Prayer mirrors to us that we are innocent, fragile, little, helpless. It enables us to connect with the innocence in ourselves, the fragility, the littleness, the helplessness. When we pray we briefly allow ourselves to kneel down, to be still, to be emptiness in the presence of the light that we are. When we pray we connect with our possibility to give and to receive.
The secret of praying is so small that it is so big. It is everything that is born in you, all the time. And sometimes it helps us to see that. Dear child, you are the Child and God and Love and Light and Truth, for ever … Amen …
I
can only
love you
when there is
no I
to love you
When there is no I
there is no you
When there is no you
there is no I
there only is …
In the simplicity
lies the complexity
All things
all meals
all movies
try to give you
“the feeling of Christmas”
That complexity
veils the simplicity
of Christmas:
Light born in you
Light revealed in you
May Simplicity
and Stillness
reveal the Light
that you are …
The Beloved is with you in the midst of your seeking!
He holds your hand wherever you wander.
~ Rumi
To dream with your heart
is walking hand in hand
with the Beloved
To see the dreams
-whatever form they take-
is walking hand in hand
with the Beloved
Thus you dream
the dream of the Beloved
who You Are
in essence …
