Category: Poetry and prose from the heart.

My experiences of the past shaped my emotional prose.

Ashes of Bone.

Tradition, set rules, dogmas, lifestyles, following, etc… All words belonging to the popular illness in the human mind, based upon a society which is in fact the corrupted and ignorant human being, which stems from this illness like the growth of a tumor appears first inside vital organs without being noticed and when is too late it has become extremely polluting throughout. The same insanity which believes war, competition, intolerance, jealousy, economic division, obsessing over commerce, etc., is productive in the evolution of the individual mind is certainly developing the thinking of billions of people every day, and without analysis and deep meditation of the consequences…

The revolution to stop this begins with you, because real change is internal, from within; for it is all about you, to question yourself, your beliefs, your traditions, your behaviors, your thinking… This is awakening and freeing your mind from the chains…

“Ashes of Bone“

Ashes of bone as tyrannous time passes,
The dust of society of my eyes veils truth;
As people remains divided in classes,
As the human mind is enslaved since youth.

My heart without thought holds the key,
The silence of the essence the liberty;
I walked through pain without what it be,
All my life I ran away from the inner deity.

The people seem so formless and vain,
As I sit pondering the state of my own mind:
Are we really choosing to be insane…??
Do we really understand we are blind…??

Ashes of bone tell a story of many a fear,
As time passes and my fleshy temple decays;
I lost people who knew me of good cheer
Playing the game of comparison and praise.

Behind the ashes of bone lies the human spirit,
Away from daily monotony of mediocre recognition.
I renounce society and its steel chains! So be it.
I rise alone, free myself, denounce all tradition.

“Unlike a drop of water which loses its identity when it joins the ocean, man does not lose his being in the society in which he lives. Man’s life is independent. He is born not for the development of the society alone, but for the development of his self.” ~ B. R. Ambedkar; Indian jurist, economist, politician and social reformer.

Spiraling With No End.

“It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.” ~ Tony Robbins; American author, entrepreneur, philanthropist and life coach.

“You control your future, your destiny. What you think about comes about. By recording your dreams and goals on paper, you set in motion the process of becoming the person you most want to be. Put your future in good hands–your own.” ~ Mark Victor Hansen; American inspirational and motivational speaker, trainer and author.

Destiny

I kept the repeating question encased in pure gold,
Foolishly I tried to make sense of it as it grew in me;
I felt alone, confused, running lost in the winter cold.
Where was I going…?? What was I to be…??

I heard the cry of sheep and the howl of wolf.
Hadn’t I walked too long…?? Didn’t I deserve more…??
The moon was whispering to me about love
While my wings were broken and I couldn’t soar.

But the whispers were astoundingly sweet in my ear,
And were magically transforming my broken heart;
They spoke about absolute creation without fear,
They spoke about commitment from the start.

The moon told me about her love for the sun,
About the true essence of love between them,
How in spite of the distance they were One,
How their destinies shone together like a gem.

I again heard the cry of sheep, the howl of wolf to be.
I had to choose my destiny and renounce all fear.
The whisper was clear, it answered the question in me:
I created my destiny with the essence of love most dear.

Spiraling With No End

My days were rainy and sad as I walked onwards to destiny,

Around me minds were conditioned to follow and compare;

The nuisance of their words, the ignorance without empathy,

The money schemes, the greed and jealousy stare.

And there seemed to be no return, as this was life,

And my mind was agitated, pressures to meet expectation;

The doorway was cold, heartless, Spiraling With No End,

Was this my life…?? Was this the lesson…??

The neighbors would rush past my chaotic mornings,

My family would become silent to my treacherous indifference,

My mind was in heavy fog and I couldn’t see the warnings,

Blinded by the Spiraling With No End in illogical defiance;

Was this my destiny as I had become this petty human being…??

Was this what my heart was destined to be, closed and sad…??

But it takes inward communion for the truth to be seen,

I had to stop my thinking and rushing day for myself to be glad.

To be truly awakened to the truth of me and the lies of society,

I need not to be taken by the inhumanity of the popular crowd;

To wallow in madness was every damn day to fall in anxiety,

To be myself now is to love each moment I live, happy and proud.

You are the Creator of your own destiny, not the stars, not any philosophy, not other people. Never allow anyone to tell you differently.

The Way of The Warrior.

“To say of what is that it is not, or of what is not that it is, is false, while to say of what is that it is, and of what is not that it is not, is true.” ~ Aristotle.

“Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.” ~ Marcus Aurelius.

The Way of The Warrior

One cannot simply survive and each day hope for the best without altering what one does, but one must do anew, change one’s actions, change one’s ideas, become a warrior in one’s own life. To see life with different eyes, fresh eyes, such eyes that are not exhausted by stubborn views and oppressing situations; therefore, a new breath must bring a fresh start, which means boldly gather yourself and keep making yourself better without stopping to self-pity or to entertain the opinions of others.

Opinions are never facts for the warrior who is wise and based on truth, so opinions do not shake him one bit when the fools of the world open their mouths to spew their ego-centered garbage.

When everyone else sees darkness and chaos, you must see light and order; thus, your mind becomes the mind of a warrior whose only purpose is the truth. And the truth is that which lies within yourself, and the truth is what makes the warrior because self-love is the truth; then, whenever you see lies and deceit in the world, whenever people and situations try to pressure you into lying to yourself, into deviating from your own path, your mind will be strong and firm upon the truth which is deep within you.

This is what separates the warrior who sees and knows the light from the individual who only survives in the darkness because he does not see and know the light in himself; thus, the warrior is never lost, and the individual in darkness is lost even until physical death comes to claim him, and when that happens the fool has lost his time.

Superior man.

“You cannot believe in God until you believe in yourself.” ~ Swami Vivekananda; Indian Hindu monk, a chief disciple of the 19th-century Indian mystic Ramakrishna.

“Be. Don’t try to become.” ~ Osho.

Men, more than women in this aspect, have to look deep within themselves and get more in touch with their emotional bodies, feel more by looking into the silence of their own beings; and also, like women, stop dwelling in the fear of rejection and judgement from the ignorance in the world of form and deceit. Many things drive superficial man, but fewer things drive the inner man; because the innermost recesses of the soul need no drive, they just are… and it is there that man comes into being, thus the realization of the superior man.

Awakening is the inner realization that you are already all that you need, that you are already all that is, that you are connected to all; so necessity for anything above you is the delusion of the unawakened one, who is always searching for something better out there, always seeking for love and happiness desperately.

The connection to the heart is what this man of the world lacks, and when he thinks he follows his heart he is just following his own ego masked as the pure heart; so he fears the opinions and judgement coming from other men, even lesser men. He is lost in the world, and he becomes violent by losing himself and his true purpose.

There must be then an internal revolution honoring the wisdom in man, honoring the real strength of the light in man; so he can be the example, who does not shy away from being connected to his priorities and his inner wisdom, who does not listen to the superficial masses of people who claim to know what a man is.

He is now a light unto himself and unto others, and he is understanding and patient, and he is wise and a protector because he knows what love truly is and he dares not deny it.

He is his own master and god, and he denies not what he is to the ignorant world.

He shouts his true happiness to the world.

Vital essence…

“I once asked a bird, how is it that you fly in this gravity of darkness? She responded, ‘love lifts me’.” ~ Hafiz.

“Love moves without an agenda. It just moves because that is its nature, ‘to move’.” ~ Adyashanti.

Essence is what permeates and fills the shells which move about in this physical world. Essence is what makes all possible–the trees, the bees, the flowers, the winds, they eyes that lock into each other when there is attraction, and the burning of the Sun above us. This is what love is–not romantic, sexual, and the rest. But the essence of The Great Spirit which is all that is, which exists in the present because it fuels all there is, all that is real.

And there is no agendas or purposes for this essence–for how can a self-aware, all-wise entity have any agendas…?? Agendas, purposes, desires, and all ambitions of goodness or wickedness come from a conscious mind, from a mortal thought which one day loves and desires and the next day fears and repulses.

This essence existed always, before the mortal mind was born and will be after, because this essence of Creation is all there is… in darkness and light… beyond the qualities it is all there is… the rest is the shell. And it is all we know, many times poisoned by the ego and turned into wars and hate. Man goes after his own terms of love, searches everywhere and anywhere out there, destroys himself over it, blinded, ignorant, not seeing what is in front of him… or within him.

And what is that which creates deep within the being the desire for life if not love…?? What makes you want to read this and seek the truth to better your own life if not love…??

But do not be like the common man, do not put it qualities and aspirations; because when you do, it stops being the true essence of love. If you do put it qualities and aspirations, it just becomes more garbage from the ego of the ignorant man.

My Eye.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be?” ~ Marianne Williamson; American spiritual teacher and author.

The Fire and The Waters

There is a magic well up in the heavens,
Waters of life which carry your image.
There is fire over the waters which burns eternally,
And its flames carry the truth of the waters.
There is a source of life in the soul of man,
And the passion for freedom burns over it.
Man blindly poisons the waters of life
And treads over his own soul.
He blatantly denies life and buries the fire,
He chains himself and ignores the passion.

I am here to see far beyond worldly perception,
The life essence which the heart in fire knows.
I am here to understand more than minds tell,
The freedom essence is the truth in my soul buried.
But where is the rationale of the ordinary man…??
Is it buried under the mud of his ignorant footsteps…??
The fire which fuels his muddy footsteps still burns,
The waters still carry his image of sheer divinity.
My heart cries because true love has vanished,
My heart cries because self-knowledge has gone.

~ Asa.

“It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.” ~ William Shakespeare.

My Eye

Over the mud of the past me and the trail of hazy vision

I rode the midnight train with doubt and indecision,

Where she stood as a mirage in the pantheon of My Eye,

Where she tempted my ignorance disguised as noble ally.

The stars and the moon were glowing but I was blind,

Time was the illusion of my impatience blooming in mind;

Man cannot see the vast forest when he sees the lonely tree,

Thought of aging is the obsession which cannot let you be.

My path was marked by my fears and frustrations,

As mankind hates itself and poisons all nations.

I saw it with My Eye as the night fell heavy on my soul,

The anger which distanced me from the universal whole.

As I made way through the station I saw destiny again,

As morning light woke me I saw the enslaving chain;

Then I contemplated myself as I awoke from the illusion,

The self-reflection fell upon the blind mob in confusion.

What is man if not his own master…??

What is destiny if not his creation…??

The darkness and light must be harmony inside.

The awakening in me lies in the visions of My Eye.

~ Asa.

As the flower and the bee and the sunlight…

Post author By thegodwithinblog

No Comments on As the flower and the bee and the sunlight…

“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.” ~ Albert Camus; French philosopher, author, and journalist.

“The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed.” ~ Swami Vivekananda.

To be an individual is to be mentally free to be absolutely curious and investigate life’s deepest meanings on your own, not collectively but as a divine and unique individual with thoughts and insights of his own, always elevating and opening doors of discovery into Creation itself.

Nature does not seek or rely on others for its own development, to find its purpose for existing; and so, flowers and the bee and sunlight do their work individually without expecting anything from the other (the ego seeks and expects, but the heart does not), and thus they are individuals who love for the sake of expressing themselves, and that makes each one of them free and unique. Learn from Nature then.

To become aware is not in the intellect, how much information you have, or how interesting, deep and sharp your thinking is; but to become aware is to have an intimate and profound connection to your inner self, to your pure heart, to Infinite Intelligence, where you can see beyond the world of form and understand deeper constructs or meanings to better your own human existence.

Wisdom then becomes one with the path, and the flower and the bee and the sunlight one with you as you work in the world and express yourself by pure heart and not by mere thought.

So, the path becomes the constant realization in the journey of the awakened one; and thus, the awakened one becomes more and more awakened in every step he takes, because now he knows the meaning of his own existence in the world–such meaning which expands and grows even deeper and much more significant as he becomes more awakened through the time of his journey here on earth.

Life is a magical journey to awaken yourself as a divine individual, not a destination where you remain asleep and follow the masses wherever they go.

The Spirit of All Things.

Post author By thegodwithinblog

No Comments on The Spirit of All Things.

“The destruction of the natural beauty, the ecosystems, and the majesty of mountains affect us in ways we’re not even aware of. Every time a mountain is beheaded, we chop off a little part of our souls.” ~ Gloria Reuben; Canadian producer, singer and actress of film and television.

The Spirit of All Things

The seas weep at the neglect,
The winds howl at the fog,
The busy man dwells in ignorance,
He does not know his spirit is The spirit of All things.

There is the deep beauty of the trees,
Where The Spirit Of All Things lives,
Where man finds true freedom,
Where man meets harmony.

True beauty is the love which eternally shines
Beyond all that man sees and hates.
True beauty is gentle and kind to the spirit–
So why cannot man see the true beauty in the tree…??

The great Spirit of All Things lives everywhere,
And it recognizes the gentleness of true beauty.
Man wears his mask of ugliness and cannot see it,
He treads on beauty and despises himself.

Man walks blind to reality and fears the love of all things;
He fears the truth of beauty for it rattles his ego,
He fears The Spirit of All things because it is him.
There is no heaven in the hell of his sin.

Clouds of Dreams.

“Write about the dream you see during wakefulness.” ~ Debasish Mridha; American physician, philosopher, poet, and author.

“With the known, you simply repeat the process. With the unknown, you access the new doorways to life.” ~ Roshan Sharma; meditator, self-help blogger, and author.

Deep beyond our thoughts and desires, our perceptions and feelings, there are waters of light, within each of our atoms, within us all, within all; and so, these spaceless and timeless waters of light refresh us, give us the inner energy, the fuel to create whatever we are passionate about in this physical life.

This can be called Wakefulness as it is the eternal condition of our souls, of what we truly are; and this is why we cannot fail at anything in this life if we train our mortality, our ego-minds and our corrupted bodies, to sail these illumined waters into the right direction, the direction of our dreams and goals.

The sailing of these waters, through patience and faith, with self-love and self-inquiry, shall awaken us into new perceptions and horizons more like the dreams we carry with us at night; such dreams of mystery and, quite often, new enlightenment into many things lived in our waking days, and dreams which carry the reality of our innermost beings.

You must trust your path then and not be swayed back and forth by the turbulent waters of your life, by the pressures imposed by your own ego and the ego of others around you; and you must hold on to your inner dreams and reach for strength and passion to endure the superficiality of this physical manifestation we call life.

24058959_391194204647281_2028549147742727341_n

So, make your dreams wake, let them carry you along and manifest what you truly are, namely the fresh waters of light.

The fear you can encounter along your path is just the superficial manifestation of your physical life and not the reality of it all, because your dreams are.

Clouds of Dreams

And who are we? The conscious or the unconscious…??

And what is reality? The world of form or the Clouds of Dreams…??

And whoever said we are the appearance of a thought-form…??

And whoever said we are the very experience in the dream…??

They walk tired and frustrated amongst the myriad of shapes,

The shapes and colors in the vain places are all they see;

The dreams are real but far from the vain places they visit,

For the essence of dreams are within the shapes and colors.

I experience Clouds of Dreams while they try to see it with their eyes.

Dreams are eternal clouds behind the shapes and colors in disguise.

The Truth.

“All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them.” ~ Galileo Galilei.

The truth

There exists in the beyond a place,
Of no existence of time or space,
Within me deeper than my sorrow,
Belonging to no past or morrow.

Where the heart is pure and the word is weak,
Peaceful and eternal are the waters of the creek,
I will bathe my conscience and elevate my mind,
I will let go all impurity and outside poisonous bind.

This miracle is a place of divine essence,
Of these glowing waters I feel the presence;
For within me they use no words of woman or man,
For within me it magically emerges my life plan.

I meet no quarrels or disputes here,
The ego of myself and others I don’t hear.
The fete, the fountain of eternal youth;
For all here is the discovery of The Truth.

~ Asa.
