Resonance

Everything is made up of vibration...fine-tuned frequencies make up all matter.

Resonance with the original divine frequency is paradise.
Dissonance creates the purgatories and hells.
For each individual. For all creation.
 As within, so without.

Consciousness is the alogorithm that generates the frequencies.
 Intelligent information guides the patterns...when harmonious, all dualities dance within unity, when disharmonious, multiplicities clash.

We try to change our world by intervention.
Crude interventions are at the outer shell of matter.
 Subtler interventions are at the level of vibration.
The finest interventions need the least effort..at the innermost information level.
Why hammer the hardware when we can just tweak the software?

Singing in tune is the key.
If my Being is in tune, my vibrations, feelings, thoughts and actions...in that order..will be harmonious and right.

If enough voices sing together in harmony, in tune with the ONE heartsound, surely that song can tranform this earth into the garden it was always meant to be!

Death , Where is Thy Sting?

Today in my meditation ,as I entered that perfect, silent bliss of the empty state, the witness watched  the ego-mind complex collapse into nothing.
This witness is that inner core of myself that never sleeps, who observes faithfully, without judgment or reaction, all my states : waking, dream, deep sleep or meditation.
The witness is but a construct…it, too, dissolves into the Self, when one sinks in total surrender into the Infinite Universal Divine. Just as the stick used for prodding the burning logs of the funeral pyre is itself eventually consumed by the flames.
Death is the key.. the only doorway to rebirth in the Kingdom of Heaven.
This is the great secret, the Philosopher’s Stone of the alchemists, the Samadhi-pill of the yogis, the eye of the needle that is the gateway to eternity.
No wonder all the great Masters of every religion and culture said the same thing:
Die before the body dies, say the Taoists.
 Death of the ego-self is the only way, say the Advaitins.
Resurrection comes after crucifixion, says Christianity.
Surrender your little self to the Divine, said the Sufis.
If you meet the Buddha on the road, kill him! Said the Zen masters. Also , be a dead man, totally dead: then all will be well.
Immortality is freedom from the fear of death.
Every living creature dies every day in deep sleep, gratefully resting in the nourishing waters of emptiness to recharge the spirit with Life-force.
Every meditator is dying a little death when he switches off his mind in daily meditation.
Meditation is the state of waking sleep : when the mind switches off but the witness continues to observe.
Thus we experience that death is a great treasure, a gateway to infinity and eternity.
We taste this treasure with our meditation. Only the ego-mind complex dies: revealing the true glory of our own true nature.
We drop our little selves and feel our Oneness. No more fear!
Welcome, my friends , to Paradise!
Here and Now.
Everywhere and Forever.

Freedom

There is a sunburst in my chest ,a song of haunting glory sweeping like a wave through my flesh, my blood, my bones.
The dark veil has fallen from my eyes: Light dances everywhere.
In the clear blue of this sky, there is no room for doubt or pain or fear.
Death disappears before these rays like fog before rising sun.
My breath is a trumpet of praise, my heart a thunder of gratitude .. such grace, such gifts, such unbearable ecstasy!
I melt unendingly in an ocean of unconditional love.
My soul gasps in wonder at the borning of the ONE , blossoming like a lotus from the roof of my head.
Freedom is a bell resounding in my Being.

The Bee

My mind buzzes like a bee in its frantic search for new and different nectars.
I tasted all the pleasures and they all taste of dust.
I read all the sacred books and found only empty words.
I chanted all the mantras and found only delusion.
I visited all the Heavens and Hells and found only mirages.
I discovered all the Gods and Goddesses were just clay.
Until, one destined day, I drank the wine of emptiness and my besotted mind fell still.
The bee stopped buzzing around from flower to flower.
At last it dissolved in the Heart-lotus, drowned in the nectar of Being.

Nothing but perfection remains.

Dive Deep

When the attention dives inward, mind-chatter sinks and dissolves in the Heart.
This results in stillness.
Stillness is the Heart, the eternal, ever-present beginning, the place of rest, renewal and re-birth.
When attention re-surfaces, the clouds of thought and feeling vanish before the rising sun of Self.
Empty blue sky expands into infinity.
 The clear mirror reflects original truth.
The sweet scent of sat-chit-ananda fills the void.
Outer and Inner become one.
Everything is radiant with magic once again.
This Heart is your true home, your being .
Stay here - and all will be well.

The Hunter

Become the hunter. Hunt the I-bird that is the creator of your reality.

This I-bird that comes alive every morning, whose cries and brilliant plumage re-create your world, where does she nest?
Track down this illusion of thought and name and form, emotion and memory, smoke and mirrors, that is the source of your universe.

At night, when sleep comes, this I –bird disappears.
 Instantly, the world disappears…there is only void, blankness, emptiness.
On waking, the I-bird leaps up…and the world is born again.

Set the one who never sleeps, the Witness, to track this I-bird.
Through his eyes, follow the secret breath within the breath.
At the verge of sleep, see where the I-bird settles and dissolves into the source within your chest.

This is the Heart…from where all the worlds arise and where they dissolve again.
This is the source and the substance of all things.
Once you find this Heart, you disappear.
Only the Self remains.... silent, blissful, tranquil and eternal.

I was

I was hungry - only because I was blind to the wondrous fruit you spread around me.
I was thirsty- because I ignored the water of eternal life you gifted me.
I was lonely - because I forgot that I was connected to every living being in the universe.
I was sad - because I expected joy from the outside and never looked within.
I was afraid - because I did not see that there was nothing ever to be afraid of.
I was in despair - because I was deaf to the voice in my soul that could make me free.
I was insane - because I let my mind run wild and never found the vast peaceful space behind it.
I was dead - because I was too timid to live totally and fully in each moment.
Now I am.
In every moment, alive, aware, awake.
And that is more than enough !
