WHISPERS FROM THE HEART

Poem 21: A Gift
Posted by: Dr Rico Ricketts, 28th December 2007

A Gift

I was not quite expecting
such a brilliant blaze of light
to fall upon the corners
of my deepest, darkest night.

But now I am so thankful,
for existence and its boon
which mortified the shadows
of my oh so cherished gloom.

Now I'm a restored creator,
my kingdom's now reclaimed.
The world's mankind is now my friend,
no beginning and no end.

I see where service beckons,
places to take a stand,
obliterate the shadows,
emancipate the land.

These words a dismal effort,
to articulate a joy
of heartfelt love and thankfulness
TO YOU MASTER, and your band.

To, My most beloved Master

Immense is
your height
More immense
is your state
Most immense
is your love

I am extremely
grateful for
the universe
for allowing me
to be a
participant with you
in this life

To, My most beloved Master

How much have I wounded you?
How much have I pestered you?
How much have I resisted you?

Oh! my dearest Master

Forgive me for being
so fast asleep
forgive me for being
so numbed in my senses
entangled in the
quagmire of worldly desires
engulfed in petty
little joys and pleasures
never seeing the truth
that these are
just passing dreams
engulfed in darkness
embedded in miseries
thinking them to be real

I know, I know
deep down to the very core
that you are the door
to eternal bliss
and enlightenment

But still how much
I cling to the self
to the very I

Refusing to budge
from the worldly pedestial
thinking it to be the pinnacle
which in reality is my very well

To, My most beloved Master

It is unbelievable
at what bottom
I was in
like a worm
in the dirt
so much worries
so much oppression
suffocating me
to death

And in the next moment
at the Master’s feet
the silence, the peace
the joy, the bliss

it was like the
distance between the
sun and earth

oh! My God
I don’t know
what I am missing man!
only thing I can do
is stand in gratitude

To, My most beloved Master

Wild are the birds
in myriad form of the divine
leela is his game
in this ever changing world
sweet in his voice
through a birds cry
harsh is his reality
if I consider it so

Being in commune
with the tree
it its kaleidoscope growth
in such immense unison
everything emerges beloved

The blue sky yonder
becons me to surrender
the birds call in chorus
like laughing children
enthralled me to
the very cove

It is so intoxicating
to be rooted in my being

To, My most beloved Master

This precious moment
this wonderful moment

I don’t want to
miss this, forever, forever
being in utter innocence
not in an alter unconsciousness

I stand in perfection
in pure love
in pure innocence
in front of my Master

Bowed head in reverence
prayerful in blessedness

In every way the divine
the Master, is gentle
persuading me
to my blissfulness

To, My most beloved Master

My mother lied to me
my father punished me
my friends abandoned me
my sisters cursed me
my society subdued me
my teachers modified me
my relatives stinged me
my community kicked me

But all this pain
is nothing compared
If Master
thou forsake me

Thou art my
only refuge

To, My most beloved Master

Sitting in discipline one
is good enough
not moving out
not moving in
no naming
no verbalizing
the mind suspended
allowing the whole
scenery to move
through me

I am a part of it
it’s a part of me
the purity
the sanctity
the serenity
growing into me

To, My most beloved Master

It pains my heart
so deeply
to see you
so tired

I hope the days
are not far
when I can
share some
of your weight

But first
let me
cleanse myself
completely
so I can
be of some being
to share
that precious
weight

I still have
so much
clouds and resistance
inside me

To, My most beloved Master

This is what
my life is
this joy, joy
this aliveness, aliveness
this rest, rest
this relaxation, relaxation
this meditation, meditation
this passion, passion

Such unison, such perfection
to be drowned in this state
nothing can be compared
to this inner sanctuary

To, My most beloved Master

My heart is throbbing
with so much life
my body is fluttering
around like a butterfly
yet I am so rested
my body is so relaxed

It is so unbelievable
to pen into words
what is happening
inside me

Yet again I stand
in total gratefulness
to my Master
to the divine
that have helped
and guided me
to this state

Bowed in reverence
I stand in witness
before the universe

To, My most beloved Master

I shouldn’t write this
but write I do
before when thou
pointed out my mistakes
it hurt me so deeply
it was so painful
escaping from here
was the only choice

But I feel so happy
so contended
because now it will
be easier to remedy
my mistakes and failures

If not to realize this
mistakes, this irresponsibility
it would have taken
so much effort
so much pain

And so much precious life
and time wasted
now the path is so clear
I am also watching
my intent
writing this, is it a
form of escaping
or a contentment
for my heart ?

To, My most beloved Master

It is so simple
yet so elusive

The inner peace
the inner silence
the inner tranquility
the inner calmness
the inner non-movement
the inner truth

The chuckling birds
the coy of the crows
all simmer down to this
emptiness in perfect unison

To, my most beloved Master

The greatest insult
I do to myself
is to postpone
meditation when
it’s happening
I have to go
and work
it took so many
births and so much
so much effort
and when
it’s happening
I relinquish it
in fact I should
have listened
to my Master
not to be so
resistant to him
and to transformation

It is still the
greatest insult
I do to myself
to my birth
to my life

To, My most beloved Master

Your beautiful
loving touch
tears me
tears not of sorrow
but out of paradise
I lick my tears
not to let
others pollute
that personal touch
that whiff of yours
fragrance still
surround me
to the very core
tears brimming
around my eyelids
waiting for the
morning sunshine
to wash it away
tears streaming
down in sacredness
to the presence
of my beloved
Master, divine

When You Walk
You Walk Like The Wind
When You Stand
You Stand Like A Tree
When You Move
You Move Like Breeze
When You Look
You Look Like Fire
When You Speak
You Speak Like A Volcano
When You Touch
You touch Like A Flower
When You Listen
You Listen Like A Mountain
When You Breathe
You Breathe Like A God

You Are The God
You Are The Epitome Of Love
You Are The Peak Of Awareness
You Are Consciousness Itself

The Fathomless, The Unfathomed
Blessed Me To Be A Participant In You Life And Work

Quite Sometime Haven't Attended Class
It Is So Hard And Solid Like A rock
There Is So Much Pain Stress And Tension Inside
The Fluency Is Not There And Cannot Move At All

In Celebration
As I Persist On
It Starts To Melt
Like Ice Inside
The Ice Now Melt
Into Water And The Water Vapourize To Steam

Now As I Move Inside
More released Into My Being.

Seeing Him Move
Is Like Seeing A Mountain Move
In Such Tranquility
In Such Centredness
In Such Pose With Lights Shimmering Around Him
In Luminous Darkness
In Such Brightness
In Such Beauty
He Just Pull My Heart Away
From Me even Without My Knowledge
Master, I Still Love You More Than Myself.
