Creative Writing
In this monthly gathering, we write for an hour in a meditative state, then those who wish may read their writing to the group, and receive feedback and discussion. This has proven to be a powerful therapeutic instrument by those who participate. Open to all enrolled students.
Exercise: Ask God, or your Higher Self, what advise or information you need to succeed in the next stage of your spiritual journey?
I asked, and this is what came...
Crawl child, crawl...
Let thy face drown in the low ground
Crawl as Saint Francis and Ramakrishna did
Dance as a snake for thy holy Mother
Lift thy weak hand
Beg for help
Humble thyself
Repent, Repent, Repent...!
Never rise until thy heart
Is torn and bleeding
With My Love
Exercise: What message would God give you for your next stage of the spiritual journey?
Fly the Dragon
Become whole
The master over the ego’s wild jerks,
Ricocheting impulses of destruction;
Harness the split double-you
Dive through the hole – portal – passage to holiness
The other side of ‘exit’ is ‘enter,’
From exile, the return.
Fear not a searing fallI’
ll be there to catch you.
The bleeding cut before hidden
Strata upon strata and now exposed,
Healed in Love’s embrace,
The new found circle of wholeness
Contains all wounds,
Hermetically sealed, none escape;
Suture kindest of seamstress,
Hermit alone in God
All evil spells, burnt.
Easter time for new attires,
From death, the revival.
Guidance
My computer is broken, such irony:
The keyboard got stuck at the letter “h”
As if it was to say, why don’t you see?
Your Heart cries for Help, please engage!
Indeed it is hurting so badly my heart,
this pain doesn’t seem to end
A pain that just seems to tear me apart
I’m in need of a helping hand
Not just for my computer - although I must say…
it’s my most important possession right now
Connecting me with my loved ones far away
Helping me write my thoughts out somehow
Unpealing the surface of my truth…
Unveiling the essence of the source…
Each layer unmasking lies, false images I´ve created to shield myself… from who I wonder… from myself…
Unspoken fears, hidden inside… Finally… Finally
Bringing them to the light…;
Dissolving them into space…
…whispering light!
Oh dear child, friend, or beloved
I beg you to trust the words I say unto thee
Because they come not from my blindness
But from the golden sea of our eternal Being
People who make the courageous and wise decision of exploring their inner self will inevitably face a number of transformational phases that will represent trials and challenges along their spiritual journey. For those few souls who persevere and triumph against these divine tribulations, a number of interesting doors will begin to open. One of the first doors recognized in the Sat Yoga Approach, and perhaps one of the most difficult ones to open, is the door that leads to higher discernment. Discernment in Sanskrit is known as viveka. Thus, we will also refer to the domain of higher discernment as the Viveka Point.
Drowning, drowning
In the Golden waters of thy Heart
***
And all of a sudden
I saw thy beauty and thy goodness
And my heart cried painfully
And then it opened
