The spirit of Heart

"One who is undisturbed by the flow 

of desires finds peace as the ocean-

though filled by incessant rivers-

remains still"

Bahagavad Gita (400-300BCE)

 

"There is a stillness/simpler than silence/

a peace deeper than calm."

Svein Myreng (Plum Poems)

 

 The spirit

 

sings so alive and clear

 

(k)nowing      is          glowing

 

timelessly

 

here

 

nearer than near

 

There is no distance to what you truly are

 

thus no need to strive and travel far

 

Wordless understanding

 

is

 

the key

 

What a joy to simply be

 

 Aware rocklike sky of stillness

 

Clouds are coming and going

 

You are the glowing

 

peace

 

of

 

knowing
