Drenched in Peace

Saturated to the gentle depths of an endless love

Thank you for the photo: by D. Carlton from FreeImages

I whisper on the seeds of an open, wild night to my dearest love, far beyond the body of this form.

He welcomes and engulfs me, circling above before diving within, taking root in the deepest nature of my being.

Here I am, mysterious generosity that gives me to myself in you.

I am a whole part of your belonging. I inherently become my own deepest need, fulfilled.

Palpable presence, the physical becomes vibration, body form dissolved.

The richness of your gratitude embalms my ancient grievance and releases the mind that had been desperately waiting to be released.

Explosions of gently unfolding magnificence. I am saturated, drenched in peace beyond conceptual thought, beyond the world of time.

I will see you here again, my perfect love of wholesome gratitude; the Self that is but singular yet never alone.

I will see you here, beyond my forms of solitude, and I will love you every moment in between, see your perfect translation of perception, and feel the perfect comfort of your course, your onward river’s flow.

I will love you, infinitely, eternally, with the love that in this moment of gentle surrender you have given to me.

You are my one, true, perfect, joyful, all-encompassing, love.

Indivisible

Precious union
One Mind speaking
To me or from me?
No distance
Indivisible

A voice within the mind
Addressing itself
But from far beyond
It’s tiny walls of self
And yet itself still

Larger
Infinite in magnitude
Wholly inclusive
Everything

The recognition
That we address each other
Simultaneously
With the same words

Undifferentiated
Subjective
All within
Infinite in capacity
Unencumbered

Graceful
Gorgeous
Pure
Indivisible

Look What Happens!

Look what happens when I give my life to you
Little things, things I could not have dreamed of
Alone

Look what happens when I give my life to you
The void dispersed, the darkness cleared, and you can comfort me
At last

Look! Look what happens when I give my life to you
Your perfect entreaties that I be that which I am are finally considered
Deemed acceptable, and embraced
With arms open to the heart that speaks in bottomless glory to the soul in surrendered joy

Look! Look what happens when I give my life to you
All longings dispersed, discarded, rendered redundant, relinquished, released

All pain and fear of future loss removed and renounced
I am resigned to the ever-present incoming flood of unfettered beauty and peace that you are

Look! Just look what happens when I give my life to you
Look what happens when I give my life to you
Look what happens…

Here, now, just.. look!

In My Loving Service to You

Inspired by Sri Chimnoy, from Seventy Seven Thousand Service Trees

The beauty of self-giving
Eventually grows into
The fragrance of God-becoming.

Sri Chinmoy, Seventy Seven Thousand Service Trees, part 10, #18

In my loving service to you
Let me be gratified in depths before unknown
Unreached by chimes of playful servitude

Let me experience the need of my soul
To give truly, unexceptionally, perfectly
Without the mask of human intervention

Let me be released through giving to the joy of your true gratitude
That welcomes all who come with gentle determination to be truly free

In my loving service to you
Let me be taken apart and rendered unimaginable without you

In my loving service to you
Let me at last in sincerity abide
Let me at last to your wholeness attend
Let me at last bequeath my wanting to your waiting heart
And commit at last to wanting only you

Your intrinsic heaven is your constant gift to all who seek for meaning in it’s only home
Your intrinsic wholeness is the life that beats it’s constant glorious drum
Harmonising with Itself, attuning to it’s own accession with everything that it counts in as it’s own

Allow me to include myself in this heavenly, uniting chorus.
Allow me to experience myself as truly part of your whole, expressive joy

Help me allow myself release of every boundary I have clung to
As I learn to give myself, through my loving service
To the guiltless ardour of your eternally encompassing arms

Heaven is the decision I must make. I make it now and will not change my mind, because it is the only thing I want.

Some Form of Peace

2 Comments

Your answer is always some form of peace
And I am alone again
Chaos relieved and released
A shambles of stories, beliefs
Infinitely familiar
Removed and uprooted, like brambles
Cut back and displaced
Erased, eradicated, reduced to nothing
Lifted, risen, raised
Above the battlefield again
My mind is gentle
You are here with me in love
Angel of simplicity
You are love
All thoughts about things
Eradicated, simplified, released
There is nothing in my determination to be in conflict
I choose peace
You are with me and I have nothing else to choose
I am still now
Mind bent yesterday on defamation
Of everything peaceful and clear
Now you are with me
I return into the simplicity of your love for me
I return into the clarity of my total responsibility
I return into the gentleness of my invulnerability
I am released
And you are here with me.
Thank you
Your answer is always some form of Peace

God’s Answer Is Some Form Of Peace. All Pain Is Healed;
All Misery Replaced With Joy. All Prison Doors Are Opened
And All Sin Is Understood As Merely A Mistake.
