Love in Front of You

I feel so bad for those people who take offense often,
They don’t recognize love when it is right in front of their faces.

Take Heart

I payed an impossible prayer
That all people, all creations would know the bliss of intimate closeness with God.
Something inside of me said,
Take heart,
With God all things are possible.

Starlight

Starlight fell from her eyes
Containing wisdom from a thousand universes

Sincerely

I can't pray seriously in public anymore.
If I open my heart sincerely,
There is a danger that I might burst into tears out of love,
Or whirl like a dervish,
Or bow in prostration for undetermined lengths of time,
And people might feel uneasy for lack of understanding.

Alive

I love nights like this,
When the books and scriptures are alive!

Psalms

Sometimes I read the psalms,
Love notes to myself

My heart was cut from the same light
As that prophet king poet lover's.

Mission

I've finally found a vision I can believe in!
A purpose I can live for
A passionate mission that I can spearhead.

I believe in the upliftment of humanity's consciousness.

Nothing will stop us now.

Immaculate Conception

We will all experience immaculate conception.

Within us is a seed of divine light,
A spark from heaven.
Nurture this blessing with love.

Soon we will birth that which saves us,
And saves all of humanity.

Not a Bad Wager

I don't know why I'm so afraid to give up the world to gain my soul.
This was never a bad wager.

Eternal Light

I was praying for all of the people in the world,
Especially the enlightened ones who are working on lifting us all up.
I looked for them and felt supported but lonely as I saw their lights scattered across the earth.

But suddenly the veil of time dropped,
And the enlightened beings from all of time permeated the planet.
There was not a space devoid of their eternal light.

1000 Lifetimes

Sometimes I get so high so easily
That I think I'm riding on the prayers of 1000 lifetimes.

Across the Dimensions

It was the need for Him that drove you across the dimensions.

Hope and Distraction

Today I learned that despair and hope are equally disturbing on this path;
Surrendering to the peace of my Soul requires excesses of neither.

In My Favor

Realizing that everything in the Universe is happening in my favor,
I feel that the only words I can ever say are
Thank you.

In The Hopes of Not Scaring Me Away

My friend spoke to me of religious rules today,
Though he respected my innovations,
He was encouraging the standard practices.

After half an hour he suddenly changed his tone,
And spoke in a very open-minded and flexible way about the whole thing.

He said that he was holding this attitude in the hopes of not scaring me away.

I hope that God has the same approach.

Harsh Teachings

I realized why the old religious teachings are mostly harsh to my ears these days;

It's not so much the talk of fire and brimstone,

But rather it is the mention of God,
He, high above us,

As if separate from us,

That is the most abrasive teaching to me now.

A Dilemma

Religious scholars may forbid making innovations in the religions.
But I wonder,
How can we evolve as a species
If we don't think more elevated thoughts than those before us did?

We cannot be stuck in time
With the same understandings of 2000 years ago!
And yet there is a great deal of purity and truth in that "old time religion".
What is a child of the new millennium to do?
