Golfing lesson


Golfing lesson

A flat left wrist
exists within
a quantum realm..
A flat dimension
amid a dimensionless field
of Being..
The wrist has control
of the body's
shifting and sequencing
in time..
But in the downswing
the wrist melts
as quantum reality merges
 wrist and ball and target:
A settled relaxing
as the ball compresses...!

for any golfers out there...!  :)

Coloring the Light


Coloring the Light

A photo's dark background
is ofttimes overlooked..
It fills the spaces between
and we might assume
some darkness is replaced
with the flowers and tree
which so pleasantly 
treat the eye..
What a difference though
if the appearing dark
hides an eternal light and
 out of its own brilliance
this beauty does appear...


Needles


Needles


“When one is able to mingle practice with the activities of daily life, these activities will then be beneficial and devoid of any harm whatsoever. That is if one has already recognized one's essence correctly. Without the correct recognition one will get carried away by the daily activities - one will have no stability. Lacking stability is like a strand of hair in the wind bending according to how the wind blows whereas a needle will be stable no matter how small it is. Even a very thin needle cannot be bent by the wind. Once one has truly recognized one's essence one cannot be carried away by the activities of daily life, just as a needle that is stable. Dualistic mind is completely unstable, like a hair that is just ready to move by the tiniest breeze; it falls prey to the five external sense objects. Awareness, on the other hand, when properly recognized, does never fall subject to sense objects. It is like a needle that is unmoved by the wind.”

~ Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche, excerpt from ‘Vajradhatu Sun’, 1985

After Death


After Death





"It is the same mechanism which wants to know what will happen after death. For some reason that mechanism, that movement of thought, does not want to come to an end. But, if you want to know if there is anything beyond, you have to die now." U.G. Krishnamurti

Not Two


Not Two

Some say that our shadows and pain
result from denying the One
finding our separated world..
Others deny the separation
and claim finding our upper self..
What if we were to proclaim
Not Two
as no-thing
which becomes
One and All...!

Time's Purpose


Time's Purpose

15. THE PURPOSE OF TIME (p347-p347, A Course in Miracles)
Can you imagine what it means to have no cares, no worries, no anxieties,but merely to be perfectly calm and quiet all the time? Yet that is what time is FOR; to learn just that and nothing more. God’s Teacher cannot be satisfied with His teaching until it constitutes ALL your learning. He has not fulfilled His teaching function until you have become such a consistent learner that you learn ONLY of Him. When this has happened, you will no longer need a teacher or time in which to learn.

Certain Awareness


Certain Awareness

Still searching in our time
 a question of finding that which
is certain..
A theory of everything seems
now and then
quite beyond grasping
not least of those scientists
spending their days
engaging their search..
But it truly seems
that we and our scientists
are still immersed 
as a separation continues
 its desperate hold..
Where is the hope..?
In those few becoming many
who of a sudden in time
glimpse their Awareness
and know at last
we must search
in unexpected places...!


Wave-particle duality, the uncertainty principle, the collapse of the wave function, and entanglement all point to awareness being an intrinsic aspect of reality. Yet we are still trying to understand them in terms of a worldview that believes the real world to be that of space, time, and matter, and relegates consciousness to some artifact of brain processes.

Yet the one thing of which we are certain is that we are aware. And it is the one thing the current worldview cannot account for. is profound anomaly will ultimately lead to the full paradigm shift to which contemporary physics is, unwittingly, pointing.
