Everyday Magic

Warm sun on your face,
Never ending blue sky,
Wind dancing with treetops a-shiver with leaves,
flaming red flowers that gladden the eye.
A song in your heart-
you breathe anyhow,
blood pulsing in joy with this perfect moment,
Infinity , eternity, right here and right now.
Everyday magic
Is easy to find;
Like a bird on the wing you glide and you soar
Through the thoughtless expanse of infinite mind.
Let go of it all!
Stop and just be.
Child laughing in wonder at dragonfly glory -
Innocence re-discovered, feels so good to be free!

The mystery of man.

What a mystery! Immortal perfection, dwelling in an ocean of love and joy and light, is miserable and lonely and frightened!
It's just a matter of mistaken identity- you forgot who you really are!
All this learning and knowledge and endless verbalisation are cluttering up your head.
Stop this restless, incessant thinking! Get rid of this unnecessary disease.Throw away all the garbage you have been carrying all these years.
Drop your burdens and rest in the garden of silence.

Once the scales of conceptual thought drop from the eyes, magic is revealed.
In the slanting sunlight, the scarlet flowers on the tree look like rare rubies.
The sound of angels singing is the sound of the breath dancing inside you.
Welcome to the Heart where all suffering disappears.
Let go! Surrender to that deep, ineffable peace.
