The universe

The universe isn’t interested in your achievements
Your trophies born from a life of success
The universe doesn’t count all those accolades
From the prizes you’ve gained and met

Met in ways where you have denied yourself
The place in your hearts deepest regrets
Those spaces never opened
Looked into with deepest respect

This love as heartfelt awareness
Encompasses a life through these eyes
Never withholding , denying its awareness
It’s own loving compassionate prize

Your purpose through this entry
Brings alive your truth as your greatest renew
Never seeking, pushing or striving
But rather honouring all of the view

As a guest and earthly guardian
The universe is fully alive
Inside you is the heart of it
Your own is your living guide

Your purpose in life as the heart space
Filled with a welcoming view
Honours all life in its pathway
Respectful, loving and true..

No agenda


When you enter a room
What do you decide?
What agenda do you bring?
Have you thought about this divide?

Without an agenda
Can you imagine yourself there?
I’m neither looking or seeking
To make be or make fair?


In something outside myself
But rather, looking inside
As to what I’m projecting
As to what I desire ?


Can you enter the room
And just be there
Without mind ?

Without body
Enlisted
With an agenda
You’ve primed

Most people never realize
What agenda they hold

For every circle of life
They enter and mould

Into the circle they need
To fill in its gaps

Wholeness forthcoming
This is the trap

That life in your choices
Is leading you home

Not to the other or the agenda
But the choices we alone

Forge together
As creation
To tear down the walls
Contained as a nation

To let go fully
And break through this course
Everything of you
Falls to the floor


Everything
Then
Can rise to begin
A life without agendas
Impeding
The circle you bring..

Some pondering of my own

Thanks JustBe... I have some pondering of my own on this topic; as to the collective flow


How do I sense an agenda within
Without an agenda to begin?

Does the egg...
Belong to turkey or hen?


To enter a room, the external view -
While residing within internal review?

Is there a zero point - in silence so still...
Where the heart can reside in the middle of
Spoken divides?


If so, then when should the heart link to and
Speak from this centre of truth...

Where intention is marked through that wisdom...

Hearts guidance seen through loves living proof.

I'm confused about the practice of having no intention as in itself it is an intention.


Then when the silence of such an intention takes over... the heart then speaks with its intention... each person comes with their own set of intentions rising from the heart.

So then what? Hehe... I am quite genuinely interested.

Oh my you have my head in a spin.. lol

I think I need more from you, or can you explain further on the ‘having no intention’ is in itself, it is an intention.


Can you expand a little more please?

expanding in joy
contracting in pain
then seeming nonchalance
evidently hypocritical
so what then may we say
about desire and aversion
trickling dawn to subtle levels
processed by in-form consciousness
held captive by samskaras (tendencies)
regulated by gender and culture

if instead we celebrate bondage
recognising what it offers
which would be otherwise impossible
then the dance uninhibited
within the prescribed perimeter
enlivens the continuum
with its uniqueness

Some more ponderings after reading through unseeker’s lovely prose..

So then what?

Without intention, the silence gives in
To the rise of ones being
You lead from this seeing
If you see and you feel
Without mind imposed
Naturally emitting
This freedom to those
To flow from the place
You give rise to flow
Joyous being
From a heart centred seeing
Spontaneous, aware
Not with holding
From being..


True to you/true for others..now what?

Ohhh hahah... you're head is spinning, try living with mine hehe (it's actually fairly quiet lately).


In some practices of meditation, the goal is "no mind, no intention I guess".

Or the desire to have no desire is still a desire hehehe


I just find it amusing before I meditate that part of my intention is to be somewhat intention less.

The goal of inaction is still a goal which requires some action from me


My head hurts as well... I might get back to my silent mind.

I wrote this for part of a speech which I presented today;


Spontaneity is the key
To awaken the hearts flow
For creativity.

Hehe... well, I guess that one way to look at it is in terms of growth and opportunity, from one heart to another... and beyond.
