Poetic Interlude...


                         WITH LETTERS OF LOVE....


         In my Poems my Love... I have emptied my Heart.

              And the Gaps between my Words...
                             are the Tears of my Crying.

              Composing the Vibrations of my Feelings...
                       singing and speaking from the Self I am.

              Expressing the Wishes and Dreams...
                                         I dream in loving you.

         I know that I have touched you...
                         deeper than the Depth...
                                of the Woman you knew you were.

               So profound...
                   that whatever might happen my Love
                        you never... ever... will forget
                   the Music of the Soul
                               that reached for the God within.

                Showing you the Beauty you are...
                             and the Harmony between two Souls.

          And the Honesty of my Endeavour...
               from the Soul within me...
                        is found within the Colour of my Style.

                    Simple... yet Subtle...
                               Touching... yet Tearing.

                    For the Man I am my Love...
                        is a Man in Love... loving you.

               Evolved to express the Love he is...
                                from the Godness he is...
                                           yet being but a Man.

          So please my Love...
                         help the Soul I am... so trying...
               in being the Heart you are...
                         so deeply touched within...
                                            by a Soul...
                                       with Letters of Love....

Poetic Interlude...

                               IN KNOWING ME


          "I feel that I am...
                    what I should be for you...
                                        at the Moment"

              Yes... these Words my Love
                                  are the Betrayal...
                                             of your Feelings.

          Hiding the Real You...
                        behind a Veil
                 woven by Thoughts and Feelings
                                   that are You so Splendidly.

                 The You and the Love within.

                        The Love within...
                                   You do not know...
                                            but feel is there.

          And so do I.

                   For I have seen you walk.
                             I have seen you move.

              And I have seen you pause...
                        between the Movements
                                        of your Feelings.

              And I have felt your Touch
                                  with the Love
                                           that tells me.

                     Yes my Love...
                                You Are In Love.

          You are in Love...
               but cannot tell for knowing
                                     all the Love You Are.

               In Hiding behind the Feelings
                                         you create
                                                in knowing me.

                     God is neither a Writer nor a Speaker
                   therefore... God has never spoken a Word.
                      The Voice of God speaks in Feelings.
                          The Feelings of the Heart.
                Follow these Feelings and your Life will become
                    the Manifestation of Happiness and Joy.
                               Happiness and Joy
                    are the Preliminaries to Enlightenment.
                      Don't waste your Power by following
                                 Words of Mind
                 but strive on by the Feelings of your Heart.

              FEELINGS ARE THE IMPETUS FOR THE WHOLE OF CREATION

                            ! GOD IS NOT A GUIDE !
                 Guidance implies that there is a right Way...
                        and that there is a wrong Way.
                            There is only God's Way.
                 You are God as Man... with your own Feelings
                            and your own free Will.
                         Whatever Way you're going now
                       or whatever Path you are walking
                       you are walking the Path of God.
                            ! Because you are God !
             Until you understand this you aren't going Anywhere.

                  God... or the Energy of Balanced Existence
                          does not know that I exist
                       but I know that I am this Energy.
                                This is Enough.
                   The Energy of Balanced Existence is Love.

                       Man is a Consciousness or Mind
                and what this Consciousness or Mind focuses on
                                 it becomes.
                 ! That is how we entered the Matter World !

               We identified with an illusionary State of Mind
             and became hypnotized by focusing on this Illusion.
                 The Illusion has become a temporary Reality
                      with its own Laws and Entrapments.

               How to get out of this illusionary State of Mind
                      is what all of us are working on.

Poetic Interlude...


                         IS THEN THE LONGING ALL


          And I but cry...
                    because of Happiness.

                For the Tears welling up...
                          from the Corners of my Eyes...
                                         are Smiles of Loving.

          While yet my Happiness
                    is mingled with Pain.

                              For the Love I am
                                   for you
                            is so Alone in Loving.

          And why... oh why...
                     do I so love alone?
                 Where is Love's other Half...
                           where is the Half that's loving me?

                 In my Crying Happiness
                             I am less than nothing...
                                            by being but Half.

                I am a Flute... without the Openings.

                       I am the Snow... without the Whiteness.

                             I am a God... without Godness.

                           For I am a Man without Masculinity.

          Is that then...
                  why I cry?

                           Is that then...
                               why I cry the Smiles of Loving?

                                  Is then the Longing all?

                         FOR BEING MAN IN DARKNESS


          To give to Man
                     a Tear of Brilliance
                                      of the Source I am.

                And to give to Man
                         a Glimpse of Godness
                                         of the Gods they are.

                         Where do I turn for help?
                       Where do I look for Guidance?

          And how do I find the Way...
                                to show them
                          the very Selves they are...
                                    within the Brilliance
                                             of their Godness?

          I can but write and write
                         in Words and Words
                                      invisible
                                  to the Eye of Man.

                                               My Brother God.

               For Man IS God.

                     But blind...
                                for being Man in Darkness.

                        Matter is slowed-down Mind...
                    Mind is Self Organizing Life-Energy...
                  and Self Organizing Life-Energy is Spirit.

                A Human Being is Matter... Mind... and Spirit.
                    The proper Combination of these three
                     determine your State of Evolvement.
                If you're mostly Matter... you're a Mountain.
                  If you're mostly Mind... you're a Genius.
               If you're mostly Spirit... you're a Living Idea.
                   A balanced Human Being is one third each.

              EVOLUTION IS CHANGING MATTER INTO MIND INTO SPIRIT

Poetic Interlude...


    A hug

    No moving parts, no batteries.
    No monthly payments and no fees;
    Inflation proof, non-taxable,
    In fact, it's quite relaxable;

    It can't be stolen, won't pollute,
    One size fits all, do not dilute.
    It uses little energy,
    But yields results enormously.

    Relieves your tension and your stress,
    Invigorate your happiness;
    Combats depression, makes you beam,
    And elevates your self esteem!

    Your circulation it corrects
    Without unpleasant side effects
    It is, I think, the perfect drug:
    May I prescribe, my friend,... the hug!

    (and, of course, fully returnable!)

                   Man is not a Body but a Consciousness.
                        Aspects of this Consciousness
                partake of Experiences in the Material Realm.

                   When we descend into this Material Realm
                 our Consciousness functions as if in a Fog.
                          The Fog of Unconsciousness.

                           When this Consciousness
               has lifted itself out of this Unconscious State
                        it will be filled with Light.
                     It will again be in its own Reality.

                   TO PROVE THAT THIS IS SO... IS UP TO YOU


   Enlightenment is living with Love in your Heart from minute to minute.
                                (Hard to do)

                              FOR ONE IS GOD


           That's what it is...
                          my Love...
                               - Helplessness -
                          Yes... Helplessness is Love.

           For loving Someone
                          is feeling Helpless
                                            because of Loving.

                    While Hate is the other Pole.

           For when Hate is there...
                         there is always something one can do.

           But Love...
               Love is Total Helplessness.
                           And this is the Pain of Love.

                                  The more Love...
                                        the more Pain.

           So by the Pain one is...
                    one knows one's Love.

                             Thus knowing the Lack of Godness.

                For being Man means...
                               to need Love...
                               as well as need to give Love.

                While being Love...
                         is neither needing Love
                                nor needing to give Love.

                                               For One is God.

                    and needs no Reason...

               Man is a Process in Consciousness... or a Being
                      who can become aware or conscious
                         of his own Origin or Source.

                       Some of us are consciously aware
                 that we are Aspects.... Images or Holograms
                 of the Creator who manifested itself as Man
                 and that we have the Identity and Qualities
                     of the One and Only Original Source.

                         This Source is Consciousness.
              Sooner or later... All of us will recognize this.

               Many People feel that their Life is different
                        than they would like it to be.
                            They feel dissatisfied
                  and often they become quite Cantankerous.
                                    - - -
                         This Negative State of Mind
                       eventually affects their Health.
                                    - - -
                Because of Ignorance or Religious Conditioning
                               they do not know
                  that they are responsible for their Life.
                                    - - -
               The Masses think that Life is a Fluke of Nature
                    and whatever goes wrong in their Life
                         is looked upon as bad Luck.
                 ! Life is something that is dealt to them !
                                    - - -
                   Some feel that they are already defeated
                              before they start
               and the more they complain... the worse it gets.
                                    - - -
                       Their Life... or State of Health
                 is a direct Result of misdirected Energies.

              ! SOMETIMES THIS CARRIES OVER FROM LIFE TO LIFE !

               The Human Mind has been born thousands of times
                 but the Human Body is brand new every time.

                  but every time the Body is more evolved.

               is attained by Loving...
                    by Loving and Loving more.

                Feeling Feelings.
                         Which no Mind can do.

          And the LOVE you are...

                    just make it more and more.

               Enlightenment is knowing that all other People
                     are walking around with your Face.
                         The State of Enlightenment
                 is the Pinnacle of Understanding and Love.
                        In the State of Enlightenment
                the whole World becomes your State of Being.
               ! All Things then are experienced as Yourself !
            What that feels like cannot be written or read about.
              All Human Souls are working toward Enlightenment
                  or the State of the Christ Consciousness.
              Yet this State is but one of the many to follow.

                THE EARTH IS THE BREEDING GROUND OF AWARENESS


                       Light... Love... and Laughter.

                 Did you ever see a Computer Software Program
                        in the Form of a Human Being?
                    Look in the Mirror and you'll see one!
                The Consciousness... Mind or Soul... you are
                   is superimposed upon your matter Body.
                 As soon as you started to live in your Body
                   you superimposed your Soulness upon it.
                You as a Human Being are Soul and Form in One.
             You as a Consciousness... are physically manifested
              in and as the Human Being you see in the Mirror.
                           You are a God in Matter.

                       WHAT YOU SEE... IS WHAT YOU ARE

    Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment...
           Cleverness is mere opinion, bewilderment is intuition.

    The Eternal looked upon me for a moment with his eye of power
    and annihilated me in his being, and became manifest to me in
    his essence. I saw I existed through him.

    Jalal-Uddin Rumi (1207-1273)

Poetic Interlude...


                       BUT EXPRESSED SO DIFFERENTLY


          Oh yes... my Love...
                  - about Love and Lust -
                              the Two Opposites Forever.

                Yet Love and Lust are One.
                          But expressed in different Dualities.

          To Love...
                is seeing Lovingly.
                         By making You 'The Love'...
                                   and I the Instrument...
                                                     of Loving.

          To Lust...
                is seeing an Object...
                          to satisfy Desires...
                                    is using the Object...
                                             as the Instrument.

          And also...
                seeing a Person Lovingly...
                          is making that Person Beauty.

                    While seeing Beauty lustfully...
                                is making Beauty but an Object.

          And like You are...
                         LOVE for the Children
                so am I in Sameness and Nature for You.

                                  But expressed so differently.

                               BECAUSE OF IT


          Oh yes... Oh yes
                          my Love.

                Come and sit on the Floor.

                     Come and sit where you always sit
                             and feel the Peacefulness of Being.

          Oh yes my Love...
                     come and sit right close to me
                                     and feel the Feelings I am.

                And then slowly...
                        take my Hand
                              and kiss it.

                Kiss it with the Feelings...
                                       you do feel.

                Kiss it with the Sphere...
                                  of Peace you feel...
                                             because of us.

          For the Sense of Living...
               and the Nature of Being
                                      my Love
                           - is to be the Peace Within -

               The Peace within the Self...
                                        you are...
                                             through me.

          And slowly then...
                     lean back...
                     and feel the Universe of Love
                                 within the Beauty you are.

                                                  Because of it.
