To find its perfection
the soul must reveal
its imperfections.
Let that charged space
spark inside you and flash.

But within, nothing is needed
except to yield.
Follow the trace of time
until the start
collapses with the end
in the space of the heart.
The real you
is much too big to be your own.
Each day, each moment
is a step into the unknown.
How can we feel anything
but amazement?

outward compassion and inward awakening
is not religion.
Through you
the world learns
to recognize itself
- as heaven.

to do nothing
but ring like a tapped bell.
We spend most of our lives striving so hard
to earn our own permission to be at rest
where we are
- when we could have done it all along.
To really meet the mystery,
we must be uncertain.
Even your suffering
is not your suffering.
It all belongs to the one
who lives through you.

real thirst
draws rainwater
from an empty sky.

the world around us seems alien and unwelcoming,
and we shut down in self-protection.
Gratitude opens us to reality.
Regardless of belief or faith,
everyone is agnostic
until gnosis.
When in doubt, favor compassion
over certainty or tradition.
In this divine game of hide-and-seek
stop pretending
there is any place to hide.
There is an inner perfection
the same for everyone.
The psyche may go through the motions,
but it's journey is done.
Stop struggling for perfection,
and recognize the perfection
you already are.
Each kind act
and simple insight
is a victory.
You live in the most sacred place
in the universe:
right here,
right now.
Poetry has an immediate effect on the mind. The simple act of reading poetry alters thought patterns and the shuttle of the breath. Poetry induces trance. Its words are chant. Its rhythms drumbeats. Its images become the icons of the inner eye. Poetry is more than a description of the sacred experience; it carries the experience itself.
