Awareness

Awareness

When your aware of more you look at things differently
Your feelings change
You see differently
You act and move differently
The power in being awake and aware
Beyond others and the world around you
Moves you deeper inwardly
To the nature of yourself ‘aware’
Aware of you, as things are in you
Aware and clear to know
How to be in this world
As the world is
As you are
Honouring what’s right for you
The clarity in being you
Aware of yourself
No longer contained by others
Tending, fixing, being ‘there one’
You become the ‘one’
And as the ‘one’
You allow the fullness of life
To stream through you
To know the truth
For you
To know the truth
That was contained by all others
You perceived ‘needed’ you to be their ‘one’
This beautiful mystery of life
As connection
All the while
Was seeking you
As you sought to be
As you sought and thought
Through your mind
Your contained being
Held together by others
That was outside of you
In the restful peacefulness
Of ‘just being’
Just being you
The home within
Now moves you in truth
Of you ‘aware’
Awareness bridging
A lifeline
To home
As yourself aware..

As I look, observe what’s there
Nothing within me cares to compare
Clarity born from nothingness knows
The emptiness never ceases its flow
Spontaneously arising as life comes to meet
Drawn to the nature, hidden in speak
Intersecting moments, realties merge
What comes from that clarity
Will be Emptiness heard

If everything contained
Driven by need
Desires that feed
Where nothingness leaves
The clarity of the unknown
Can never succeed
To move as an all encompassing
True state aligned
Planting it’s seeds

So let thoughts and your freedom
Break through those bars
Always believing
It’s much too hard

Seeking the truth as the truth you become
Leads as the truth where the view overcomes
Not withstanding, withholding, with diligent grace
But with might, with adventure and divine inspired fate..

Innate wisdom
Born through pain
Rebirthed exquisitely
Given no name

Mystery as the unknown
Awakening as itself
Contemplative awareness
Abundance is the wealth

Overcoming hardships
Through miraculous knowing
Is the ever present listening
Enriched and flowing

Thoughts become riches
Mind becomes a den
A playing field open
The flowing, moving zen

The heart as a garden
Blossoms and reaps
The body as it’s temple
No longer cares to seek

The abundant revelations
Flowing through so clear
The streams attained
The self realized
The ever presence near

Attributed to this journey
Attributed to this self
Tied to all life solely
By the interconnected wealth

The thread we call
The nourished life
The splendour
And the pain
The hinderances
The openness
The struggles
The might to overcome

The simplicity of each moment
Dawned and gently laid
All succumb in silence
To the presence
Of this way

Emptiness as wholeness
Completeness, fullness
Filled
The void of aloneness
Finding rich abundant still

I was full and sought to be emptied

I was emptied and I sought to be filled

God watched the play

Indifferent

Dispassionate

Open

I entered.

Feminine rising

Your mother source in every way
Shatters, breaks you, fuels your play
Loves you, nurtures, feeds your day
In her heart, her mind bestows
Arises as the child you know

Your inner child becomes this source
Nothing that your ever taught
Takes away this foundation strong
Until you ’realize’ , your mothers song
As you the one, who perceived through her
Her touch, her way, her smile, her curves
Her hands, her voice, the tones, her song
Become the child as she belonged

As she felt, as she heard, as she was
As she observed
As she displayed, in her actions told
Her standing truth, her laid down hold

When as a babe, she held close
Her everything, was felt the most
By you the child, untouched till then

Her womb cocooned
This was your den
A flowing fluid safety zen
A place where all
Your needs flowed in
As you developed
As your deepest zen

The moment where your birth gives name
Your mother source, stakes her claim
In you, in love, as everything
You become what love she shows
You the child, from her, it flows

Deep into your unconscious dream
You weave the world through her streams
Through every sense coming alive
You meld and merge
As she devised

“My mother, myself”
You may one day call
Through the eyes of love
This becomes the fall!
“Awaken dreamer”
This time is yours!

To now understand
How you came to be
Through her as she did
In all her deeds
In all her dreams untold
Fed through
Her life giving hold

Upon the day
You cry out
Mother
“Thankyou”
Without any doubt
I would not be
Who I am
Right now

Without those hidden, open ploughs
Without those arms as love or doubt
Without those eyes of fear and shame
Without the guilt, without your blame
Without the care, without creating me
I wouldn’t stand here and see!

Nothing was lost, everything was gained
Everything shared, everything that was strained
Everything you were, till now
Gave me this life
I am that bows

In thanks for you, my life, those seeds
That allowed me to remember
The zen garden needs

As I return to my cocoon
I give thanks for my life
And your womb
Aware and gracious
It allowed me to bloom

Aware and thankful
For raising me
To understand
Your deepest seeds

My Father smiled and held her hand.

I loved them truly.

Interactions between parents
Influence the child’s reactionary charge
It may not seem important as two
But as one this creates their view
If it’s hostile, if it’s unwise, if it’s broken or lies
The child’s reality forms through these streams
Through the feeling level not just through what it sees
The seeing is as it is, the feelings they skew
The inner world of a child, caught in this view


Loving interactions, without fear or without pain
Send most directly, to what both contain
What both hide behind, what both send and project
Is it open? Is it clear? Is it done with respect?
The most powerful model, to the humanness of the child
Is the open, clear expression, where nothing divides

Divides them into sides
Divides what they see
In feelings, where their connection
Cannot remain strong
Grounded with a sense they really do belong

As you strive to hide what you truly do feel
If you contain and divide this source in their field
You not only take away, confuse their source
They look at this division and harness it’s course
As their own, whether hidden or playing out as direct
The same experiences will play out or another will stage the set

These are powerful images, powerful hidden creations
In the child witnessing, in the child’s navigation
To know himself clear, to feel and let go
Not skewed, confused by two sources that don’t know

Don’t know how their projections
Hurl a reality so torn
Into a child who’s innocence cannot know
The truth as clarity
The truth of their illuminated core self
Here is where parents set the tone, set the stage
For a deep image transpired into the child’s every age..
