Listen. Listen To Your Soul.

things. that should be asked. often.

in every type of. relationship.

how is your heart.

is your breath happy. here.

do you feel free.

"Poems come as they will.

They come as they want, when I’m waking, eating, exercising, chatting with someone.

Sometimes they come to me as a whole, sometimes a line.

I think it’s one of the ways my soul communicates with me,

I do my best to sit down and listen". Listen. To Your Soul.

When you are still,

The Answers, like poetry, Come.

 

let go of your heroes,

your preachers,

your leaders

and your hoodoo gurus...

 

If those you meet are not shaking you out of your skin,

jolting you to let It in,

if they only leave you with troubling questions

then you must question them.

 

Self Knowledge
To Know Ones Self Beyond The "I"

Is The End of Relative Knowledge
And then The Journey Of Bliss
The Absolutely Magical Moments
A Joyous Life, Simply, Flows.

"What struck me the most about studying an orthodox system of knowledge in India with an Indian teacher was the difference between knowledge about something and knowledge itself.
But no matter how much I thought I knew and even how much I thought I’d experienced through practices. I didn’t know the one doing the practices. The experiencer, the knower.
Taking that one step further… I didn’t know my SELF. I’d even confused my understanding of this world SELF, thinking it was the idea I had of myself"
