Take a break...

Beyond all polarities I am

Let the judgements and opinions of the mind be judgements and opinions of the mind

And you exist behind that

Ah so

Ah so

It’s really time for you to see through the absurdity of your predicament 

You aren’t who you thought you were

You just aren’t that person

And in this very lifetime you can know it

Right now

The real work you have to do is in the privacy of your own heart

All of the external forms are lovely

But the real work is your inner connection

If you’re quiet when you meditate

If you truly open your heart

Just quiet your mind…

Open your heart

Quiet the mind, open the heart

How do you quiet the mind? 

You meditate

How do you open the heart?

You start to love that which you can love and just keep expanding it

You love a tree

You love a river

You love a leaf 

You love a flower

You love a cat

You love a human

But go deeper and deeper into that love

Til you love that which is the source of the light behind all of it

Behind all of it

You don’t worship the gate 

You go into the inner temple

Everything in you that you don’t need 

you can let go of

You don’t need loneliness for you couldn’t possibly be alone

You don’t need greed because you already have it all

You don’t need doubt because you already know

The confusion is saying “I don’t know”

But the minute you are quiet you find out that in truth you do know

For in you, you know

Plane after plane will open to you

I want to know who I really am

As if in each of us, there once was a fire

And for some of us there seem as if there are only ashes now

But when we dig in the ashes we find one ember

And very gently we fan that ember

…blow on it 

…it gets brighter

And from that ember we rebuild the fire

Only thing that’s important is that ember

That’s what you and I are here to celebrate

That though we have lived our life totally involved in the world

We know

We know that we’re of the spirit

The ember gets stronger

Flame starts to flicker a bit

And pretty soon you realise that all we’re going to do for eternity is sit around the fire
