Alone
Lonely vs Alone
Loneliness is a modern day reality Slow strangulation, with us the casualty But with expectations reduced, no more forlorn Let us substitute the word lonely with alone Lonely is externalised, seeking, egocentric Alone is internalised, detached, divine centric Diametrically opposite in orientation Divine love neither judges nor shows hesitation Pouring out its fragrance for one & all alike, glowing Unexpectant of reciprocation, always free flowing So enjoy a coffee with a friend or without Mindful always of the wayside beggars voiceless shout Life is beautiful, if we shift the fulcrum to our centre The door to the divine opens within, just enter! |
Alone we experience our Pain
Child stumbles, nose bleeds Child’s cry, his mother heeds She frets & fusses, wipes the stain She is concerned but cannot feel his pain For each must live his life alone in solitude Though friends may hold hands to build fortitude But his life experiences are for him & for him alone Lived, felt, assimilated, etched upon his soul in stone As life ebbs away slowly, the near & dear gather around Bones squeezed within, breathing constrained, mind unsound Through the pain he feels the tender touch of empathetic hands Yet none knows the pain he feels within where he makes a lone last stand Such is the truth of the Lone Ranger Fact over fiction is far more stranger Attachments, fears & desires slowly extinguish In aloneness he embraces his own pain & anguish And there is this other pain, far, far deeper than the physical More poignant, piercing & lasting than even the emotional It is what he experiences in his final moments ... remorse Arising from thoughts, words & deeds lived, egoistic & coarse As he replays before his consciousness his dispersal of love & pain Love divine-centric and the tears he gave others, his own self-serving stain A stain he must erase himself, thereby removing his egoistic feral defect Alone he must face his karma, the immutable law of cause & effect |
In aloneness we embrace the divine
We may shout it from the rooftops but no one will understand The ecstasy within we feel, when in still-aloneness, we are divine-entwined An ineffable joy within, inexpressible, expansive, soul uplifting, grand It is in aloneness that our body, soul & spirit are Universe aligned |
Alone in our stillness
Only in our aloneness And doerless completeness In a mode of staid stillness We access Universe connectedness We are One with the Oneness Alone in our stillness |
Lovers
Lovers! Intimately close, twin souls Yet each deep within, each is alone Alone at the core where their lover can never reach For the auric blueprint of each of us is unique Alone each of us must walk the inner path to ascension Lover helps by holding our hand through life’s outer tensions Yet alone we were born & alone we will die In our aloneness too, we must also reach for the stars in the sky |
Alone & Joyful
Alone? Yes. I mean no! How else than alone, would I have known? Oneness with centre in motion, periphery slow! In aloneness, fulcrum shift perceives The source, the harbinger of inner wellness Images of the ego but deceive No mirror, so no reflection, in our alone-stillness What is it then, the rippleless essence? It is here, within, ineffable joy, beyond delineation Not one with, but rather The-aloneness-presence Self-cognised, when we abandon sensory limitations |
Boredom?
The genesis of boredom, discontent & melancholy lies in loneliness Contrasted to the joy of being alive here & now in our vibrant aloneness Just as indifference or self-serving egoism is consciousness contracting While detachment, desirelessness, Universe connecting love, expanding ... Extrapolating from these consciousness contracting vs expanding examples We may contemplate upon our inner orientation from other samples Our reflex instincts; just two lists: one giving, the other seeking more One narrowing, the other expanding our consciousness at the core As and when our attention is externalised, anchored in egoistic seeking The delusional impossibility of making permanent the impermanent leaves us despondent, lonesome & weeping Which is the root cause of our needless self-inflicted suffering ... Shifting the fulcrum of our consciousness inwards, divine-entwined is fulfilling, empowering & enlightening Boredom? What is that? In being to become, I AM always That! Choosing light over darkness, a persona winsome Discarding vicarious knowledge for deep inner wisdom We can choose to effortlessly reshape ourselves as we choose in our stillness A self-help divine-assisted program we may execute in our joyous aloneness Inner cleansing, lightening egoistic baggage, treading gently on the earth Effusing unconditional love, dispersing the fragrance divine unendingly in joyous mirth |
Aloneness but not alone
In the sanctum of aloneness Within meditational stillness Poised, aware, alert We sense a spurt Within ... a movement A divine enablement Movement allowing recognition Stillness ... assimilation Within our aloneness Resistancelessness be-ness Divine love entwined Transforming as empathetic & kind From the gross ego untied We stand not alone but unified With the Universe, in loving-oneness In aloneness, stillness-timeless |
Alone we awaken
Be the fellow mans egoistic delusion His state of inner conflict & confusion Be self-inflicted Our helplessness is reflected By our inability to correct his direction We just watch in observational contemplation In aloneness of our core consciousness Loving yet powerless to assist in our stillness Such is the dilemma Akin to watching the cinema Images will unfold as ordained We are not, so who is pained? The river must run its course Over terrain both smooth & coarse In its aloneness Alive be-ness As do we, alone yet entwined With the current divine In acceptance & trust Ascending to love from lust In aloneness |
Alone the sun emits life giving light
Even though the earth turns its back It minds not its unseemly slight For it is the light! Nothing does it lack! |
Aloneness yes but never-ever alone
For once the ego cuckoo has flown We are not and yet we are, The presence In, as & one, with the Divine essence |
Love
Love is unseeking Uncalculating Nonjudgingly embracing Always outpouring It’s being the becoming Divine fragrance dispersing A dance unending In aloneness |
I am enjoying your verses!

*** Loneliness disabling, leads to melancholy, boredom Aloneness enabling, meditational, acccess to the divine kingdom Diametrically opposite ends of the spectrum One contracted in anxiety, the other persona winsome |
Vibrations
The vibrations of varied thought-emotion Are & yet are not because their proportion Their final reception Depends upon our selection Energy frequency filtration By alchemical sublimation In our nonjudgmental perception Embraces each energy influx in exaltation In silent aloneness |
A new dimension
We in uncharted waters sail Beyond the five sense veil New dimensions, new realities And never before seen entities Nonjudgmental observation No conditioned perception Renders harmless the playful While embracing the prayerful Our orientation of openness One with the absolute oneness Enables seamless navigation Without coloured imagination In unhurried aloneness |
Inspired by lyrics of the ‘Stopping by Woods’ poem by Robert Frost:
Part-1 : Ignorance The wounds are ugly dark & deep Love from them has started to seep Alone in the void within I go to sleep Part-2 : Illumination The vibrations of divine love percolate way down deep Divine joy overflows from within as the Universe does reap Am entwined with the oneness through both waking & sleep |
Alone we connect
The old man With elan In the balcony Cloudy or sunny Connects with the tree His daily entree His thought We know not But we see the sign His face does shine In autumn or spring His inner zing At any time Birds he mimes And feeds with seeds Freeing plants of weeds Though his profile is low We sense he knows Way he celebrates life Without children or wife In aloneness joyful Persona wonderful Face alive & aglow One with the divine flow |
Serpent of desire
Rearing the baby python snake With steadfast resolve that wouldn’t shake Bemused by its enormous strength & stature Even while being consumed, he felt like it’s creator! |
Humility
Gifts granted ... By the Universe Love embrace In our aloneness The enablements ... Expanding By choiceless choice Empower By equilibrium shift Which is when ... Our humility Determines stability A simple daily check Is our divine-connect In aloneness |
Alone walked each Buddha
The ineffable, ecstatic, illuminating surge within A distinct experience of consciousness uplift Reality unknown to eristic theoreticians sanguine Discussions with the ignoramus leading to conflict In aloneness they trustingly walk the pathless path in silence The Universe harvesting their unique consciousness fertile Enableabilities bestowed are humbly received by them in stillness Sharing revelations arises from their caring but is invariably futile Yet they cannot hold back and so they do speak A reflex response of their divine love enablement Offering other fellow seekers an inspirational sneak peek Wishing all well & recognising equality for all beings sentient In their vibrant aloneness |
The imperceptible shift
In aloneness Stillness & aloneness Silence Pristine non-self silence The essence of awareness Unattached to form To consequence Just is Unseeking For it is, as it is Complete Whole And well The core, the pivot Yet automatically shifts Ever so slightly Enabling awakened connect With the Universe Which always was Which always is A point in space Looking at another Interchange Even though Both were same Both are same And so remain Vibrating In tandem Ad infinitum |
Remarkably beautiful!!

Healing
Influx Outflux Of divine energy With which in synergy And as endowed A mere conduit of That flow ... Deployed Employed For healing Unpeeling Negativity, injury, disease Doable, with ease By the Universe Into which immerse The healing touch of thought Born of divine love begot Appeals for healing & surrenders ... The prayer, in childlike wonder As a non-doer Universe alone being the mover If optimal for that soul Healing is efficacious & total However if the Universe declines The healer, in humility also resigns Having never as ego sought; egolessly still Vibrations always in sync with the divine will As such, either way, healed or not, accepting The outcome as may be, magically unfolding In doerless aloneness |
The creator!
Within familiar patterns Narrow grooves Predictable trajectories Of thought Which repeat And thereby amplify Exaggerate The dream, the illusion And as illusion expands The resultant delusion Our consciousness contracts Making it smaller And smaller Imprisoned Caged Enslaved By thought One day Any day Today Now! We choose To examine To observe To contemplate In aloneness The source of thought Going in deep Deeper Unendingly To the root And are astonished Surprised To see Mirrorlessly That we ourselves Are the creator The maker The preserver And now, the destroyer Of the bubble Of ignorance In aloneness We see If we choose To see *** |
The roadmap
The enigma imaginary Of self created imagery The solution Lies in dissolution Fearlessly, absolutely Totally, completely Of the conscious mind Which spirals & rewinds Non self presence In the now, in innocence Offers instant divine connect Wherein we resurrect Automatically In singular universality In aloneness *** |
Consciousness correction
Gloom abounds Sleep patterns change Interactions reduce Wealth depletes Friends apathetic The noose tightens Fear of uncertainty Contracts Egoic consciousness Looking at it Humorously The events Are just events Cyclic, transient When did they Gain access within And grown to proportions Frankensteinian? The ebb & flow Of shifting tides The ups & downs Of the Ferris wheel The movement Is what enables Acceptance & Assimilation In joyous gratitude Of life experience In aloneness *** |
Content with Present moment Orientation?
The gateway of our experience At which point thought rests Handing over the baton of awareness To emotion The type of experience we embrace Depends upon the frequency ... Of the thought which positions Our consciousness To draw from the Universe The emotion Correspondent to the frequency of thought Which positioned us there And therefore Present moment orientation Though a prerequisite To enable meditational engagement Would offer divine connect Only if ... The frequency of thought Before it first peaks and then rests Is closer to ... Nearer to ... The frequency of ... The subtle domain Each continuum of time Wherein we experience Is devoid of fragmented thought For the duration We are captive therein Because ... We are so structured To be able to cognise At any given moment Only one thought Or experience one emotion Correspondent to that thought Every experience continuum ... Is not meditation Although every experience continuum ... Is present moment oriented It may be ... Tamas - escapism Or Rajas - desire Or Satva - purity Or a combination Of these Gunas Which represent a bandwidth Of our present endowment To experience What we choose To experience In aloneness *** |
The slow rhythm
First, the meditational taste Bringing about haste Of egoic origin Seeking magnification Then, the rippleless calm The staid acceptance balm Embraced, imbibed, assimilated Sense of egoic urgency decimated Spirit, soul, ego ... Are labels & thoughts we forgo Words, symbols, whose delineation ... Is subject to perceptional interpretation The acceptance, the allowing Orientation of one, free flowing Unseeking & unexpectant Ego reduced if not decadent Divine connect permanence Is, for as long as is, our innocence Our slow rhythm is ecstatically alive & aglow In sync with the pulsations of the divine flow This Universal oneness In a state of be-ness Divine-entwined closeness Cognised in aloneness Epilogue: No proof available, so none seers offer Each consciousness will one day flower In a manner & at a time As ordained by the divine sublime *** |
The implants
It is in aloneness Within In a space within Deep within Possibly inaccessible ... To any other Which of course is ... An oxymoron since ... There is no other All being one Yet In as ordained Within momentary duality Individualised as self As consciousness Transitioning to awareness To unity In an awakened state Is for the moment unconscious Asleep And so, as ordained In order to awaken To awareness In aloneness Deep within The essence of oneness Is embraced Imbibed Assimilated Along pathways Unanticipated By the self In aloneness There being no way Save the choiceless choice Of so choosing By the self As non-self To awaken And transition To awareness To oneness The Universe Or singular awareness Which the unconscious self Also is Already attained But unaware And so The Universe Implants Bestows The single eye In synchronicity With several other implants Energised To enable the already awakened But unaware Self Actually non-self To awaken in a manner Of knowing the awakening In aloneness *** |
You know, I receive spiritual poetry by email...I glance at any from the 20th c...and delete it.
I read mostly those from before the 15th c... those similar to the wisdom and direct exp of Rumi, Hafiz, Kabir, and Christian Mystics types. And now there is yours. ♥ |

*** Oh! I’ve not read them but I guess that the pattern of unfolding being same for all, albeit with colourations and variations unique to each, the expressions through language would tend to be similar though worded in accordance with the style of writing of each... my guess is many may just keep silent! :smile: *** |
Growth orientation
Growth Whose? Yet movement Being life And stagnation Death It is in movement That we are alive The movement may be Upwards Downwards Or sideways As related to Frequency bands Of thought Or energy Culminating in Emotion, experience Correspondent to thought Upwards being growth Downwards decline An sideways ... Illusionary variety in stagnation Or egoic delusion So, accepting That the inclination Innate to our consciousness Is to ascend Signals an acceptance That the Universe Of which we are a part Actually whole (Self-revealed) Is ascending As is Mother Earth Whose frequency Is rising Felt And even sceptics Scientists Have measured Schumann’s resonance Rising And so, Earth As it ascends Along with it So do we In oneness Yet The degree of ascension Is determined by Our free will To choose To resonate Transcend To so ascend In aloneness *** |
Low quality connect
Within the realm of duality It is an inevitability That the duration of our meeting With each other, is fleeting We are in outward contact And do seem to interact Yet the element of our love connect Is definitely lacking and suspect And so, the sad truth Is that with us coarse & uncouth Of our superficiality, the cause Lies in our being self absorbed Being in a continuum of be-ness Divine connected in aloneness Knowing the reality of oneness Our love for all is limitless *** |
Discontent
The feeling of discontent We may trace its element Its root To our inability to reboot Consciousness, in sway Gone momentarily astray From divine orientation To egoic frustration Continuous contemplation Consciousness correction Shifts attention within To anew begin Effortlessly Seamlessly Reconnect to divine sublime Anytime In the blink of an eye By discarding the ‘I’ In aloneness *** |
Contraction by Calculation
The shocking realisation That attempted delineation Bisection By memory limited imagination Of the moment Joyously poignant Potent Being an indivisible element Found me as a dead man walking Owing to my own ego stalking Balking From here & now awakening Shock self-realised ... in aloneness *** |
Oneness
Aloneness Be-ness Stillness Synonyms? No quite ... Aloneness is quietude Be-ness is dissolution Stillness is presence And yet When our orientation ... Is thus conjoined There is completeness Oneness *** |
