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 …

Conversation avec Dieu

Je crois en Dieu
Oui, et …?
Comment ça: oui, et …?
Que signifie: Je crois en Dieu?
Que je soutiens ce que Dieu nous a raconté
Quest-ce que Dieu nous a raconté?
Nous ne pouvons pas voler, tuer, divorcer: toutes ces choses comme-là
Et tout cela est-il en accord avec tout ce que tu ressens en toi?
Oui
Y-a-t’il quelque chose qui n’est pas en harmonie avec ce que tu ressens?
Au fond, non; sauf les choses que je ne comprends pas
Quoi par exemple?
Aime tes ennemis
Oui, c’est difficile a comprendre. Comment le comprends-tu?
C’est comme si je dois approuver tout ce qu’ils font
Crois-tu que ç’est cela la signification?
Je ne vois pas ce qu’elle pourrait être autrement
Trouves-tu que tout ce que Dieu fait est bon?
Oui, …. ou alors, au fond : non
Qu’est ce que tu ne trouves pas bien?
Il y a la faim, la mort, la peur, le meurtre
Et pourtant tu crois en Dieu?
Oui
Qu’est ce que tu trouves bien?
Il y a l’amour, la nature, le respect. Des choses comme ça
Y-aurait-il de l’amour, si tu ne connaissais pas la haine?
Non
Y aurait-il ‘ami’ s’il n’y avait pas ‘ennemi’?
Non
Y aurait-il le bien sans le mal?
Non
Qui penses-tu être?
Je ne le sais pas encore. Qui es-tu?
Je suis Dieu, comme toi
Omnipresent

When we do not search for meaning in the words
And listen to them like music
When we do not search for form in the words
And read them like an artwork
We might discover
What is hidden
Beyond and close
Outer and inner
Omnipresent
Rapturing
Silence …
Unteach
Wound
Peace
Exhausted by the search for peace
Confused by all the world outside
I walk the blinded way
No thing to turn to
No one to turn to
What is left
is me
What is left is me
I turn to me
and find
amidst exhaustion and confusion
amidst aloneness and dispair
a treasure chest
illuminated by Grace
filled with Peace …
