Challenge a concept of the mind
To which I Am blind
Yet something bridges the illusionary chasm
Think not! Feel divine love magnetism

There was a time in the not too distant past
When gloating in ferality was our daily repast
Yet from time to time through the outer din
We felt a stirring of warm love deep within
But with senses externalised in illusion
Fear & desire kept us enmeshed in delusion
Even knowing that what seemed lost may be found
Fear of freedom kept us bound
Until one day we received a divine impulse
Felt within as a magnetic pulse
Urging us to listen to the voice of innocence
Speaking to us in whispers as our conscience

Wherefrom came the exalted thought
That inspiration along with it brought
We know not

But we listened
Divinity within glistened
Consciousness self illumined

It was dreadful when I came to the understanding that life was not all good. At the time I was so good, clothed in my childhood innocence, but then the floor tilted inwards if you know what I mean.

The sun came up every day, the world turned, and the cycle continued as I marched on, fearing further awakenings.

Putting words to the wordless:


How can You be so magnificent?
You maintain every galaxy, every 200 billion
in just this physical world, with 100 billion solar systems in each with 200 billion suns in each
solar system most 50 xs larger than our Sun....how many are there in other dimensions? !
Such brilliance, such genius I can not imagine; and yet, You have given me glimpses into Your intricacies.

I worship at Your Feet, Lord.
You have revealed to me how You orchestrate every acorn falling in China.
And my dog barks at each one.

You are the most brilliant Being - beyond anything...
I am so humbled by You making me privy to Who You Are!!!!

I have seen a world in a grain of sand and have been changed forever...because of You ---Who moves
the entire Universe---
Infinite and infinitesimal.

I fall to Your utter Glory, Lord.
Please, bathe me again in what You are.

You are All That Is.
ALL That Is.

Oh how the mangroves grow, in the summer
So that is why the mangroves grow
In the summer

They filter out all the salt
From the water
As they soak in the sun

They cry no tears
Not even the tears
Of a crocodile
They are being
Too naturally

I always felt like I was being
Authentically me
More, even, than many others
I can filter out all the salt
But the sun brings me no feeling
Now I am here
And I am finally not sure
Who I am

And I am weeping and
They feel just like crocodile tears
And all my friends are here
and it's incredibly lonely because
Deep down I am
Not myself
So I
Am
in a
barren place
and so alone

All this knowing
That everything
Will work out.

I have never been
So full and so empty
At the same time.

As narrated to us by a friend first hand
A biweekly experience beauteously grand
Beginning with the energy grid looping form
Into two halves charged by electricity warm
As ordained by Ishwar
Vivid experience of Ardhnarishwar
Right half male
Left female
In both physicality
And sensuality
A golden white light healing
All chakras energising
Whereupon Shivji appears in person
A manifestation of grandeur defying reason
A direct telepathic dialogue ensues
Wisdom of the ages is infused
Past lives as well as future possibilities
Karma as well as powers of co-creativity
Different planes multiverses and dimensions
Revealed to plain sight without meditation
Void and the life source Aum vibration spherical
Voids within voids and manifestations incomprehensible
Ancestors and soul mate
Embraced as love within does elate
And then no less than meeting the creator formless
In a mist of luminescence outpouring loving benevolence
As also the soul guide
Who does nothing hide
Mount Kailash being Shiva & Parvati’s residence
Where the seeker is blessed as reward of his innocence
The message across all revelations plain and simple
That Love alone is real and the one God our only temple
All that is is happening is as ordained in geometric perfection
All we need to do is to imbibe & transmit love in joyous elation

When delusional clinging is undone
With the That Oneness we are one
