The dead fledgling

The dead fledgling

On a sidewalk
a fateful fall..
Over this dead one
two persons meet:
One wishes a disposal
quiet and away
from trafficking feet..
The other with a kick
and quick disregard
of this morning moment's
sudden dark streak..
A brief encounter
two teachers
on her path..
Each holding a mirror
for the other...

but Wait!..

but Wait!..

So it is..whether through Advaita or other
scripture..vital to learn of Consciousness
as unmoving and as unmoved light..simply
Aware of itself..then the reflection in our mirror..
providing light to see out there or in here..
but Wait!..we now see that there is nothing
to see..that we have only named once again:
Consciousness as experienced in our place..
but Wait!..we have no place...!

Organizations in dysfunction

Organizations in dysfunction

Again and again..a sign of our times..we lack awareness

of how separate members become an organization..

the oft intractable problem is not-knowing:

Who am I..?

Who are they..?

What is it..?

The not-knowing cancer infects..

The need now is for new software..

Software which recognizes in a

simultaneous Eye the uniqueness

in the light of each member..

Each identity is created by 

embedded knowing brightness

which is All in all..
With this known
the Organization resurrects
knowing itself at last
for the first time and
finds new uniqueness
an enlarged creation 
of unchanging Light...

A similarity

A similarity

Centered radials

uncovered in tree cutting

Hidden universe expanding...

Substitutionary

Substitutionary

An unfavored word

the speaker implied

wishing to replace

with this word: 

participatory..

The question of

responsibility..

Yet allowing each

of these words

to transform

to the other..

Might then

substitutionary

grace become 

an earned gift..?

Reality anew

A perspective shift

from encroaching shadows

to Awareness itself..

This visit to freedom

only letting go

finds Reality anew..

States

States

In a patch of sundried earth

dark cracks emerge.. forms resembling maps

remembered from schooldays and Google..

Appearance of arbitrary lines depicting 

States newborn..

Our everyday maps also born of the Sun..

the Sun's artistry with rainfall..the points

of assembly of water in place and flow..forms of

unique identities each subdivided patch..

Raising the question of new possibility of finding

an Awareness.. becoming the Sun and seeing

the patches and lines and States anew 
as images projected.. from that projector..

those many miles away...
