Not Meditating

Not Meditating

Reading at Koloa an Anara practices 1/8/2012 A Walk With My Soul by Linaji All attempts to meditate are the abject denial of it… J. Krisnamurti Sometimes when I sit on the ground for no reason, bills paid deadlines met, stomach neither full nor empty my quiet spreads and fills me with sky from brain to big bang I am the blueprint a marriage of flesh and sapphire discovering the open...

Right This Second

Reading at Waimea practice 01/07/2012 I want to know about now the now beneath my fingertips gone already, once aware of itself only in knowing it was, however briefly now, already left redundant not caring what came next any more than what passed, now, not caring whether moments exist when they disappear as footsteps erased by concrete now, no forward, no back, was but a motion carried by the...

Just When I Doubted…

Just When I Doubted…

Reading at Anara Spa -11/17/2011 Passion's Core by Linaji Just when I doubted myself, Just when I ’bout gave up A light shone thru. Scathes my lack of intention Attacks my dullard fears Presses me on And pulls the reigns of attention Back from unconscious years. Un-zips my eyes Sore from looking the other way Unfurls my feelings And they sing out a chorus of Doris Day. Ohhh I...

Just For Now

Reading at Anara Practice 6/27/2011 Just for now, without asking how, let yourself sink into stillness. Just for now, lay down the weight you so patiently bear upon your shoulders.

Breathe out whatever blocks you-...

Let Go

Let Go

Reading at Waimea 05/21/2011 Let go of that which is gone. Let go of that which is lost. Let go of that which is not yet happening. What has happened in the past and what will happen in the future exist only in your mind. What is happening now is the infinite caress of the universe. To touch the eternal now and let it enfold you in its infinite Love is the essence of being in love. What is...

The Time Before Death

The Time Before Death

Reading at Waimea practice 4/23, Koloa practice 4/25/2011 Friend, hope for the Guest while you are alive. Jump into experience while you are alive! Think… and think… while you are alive.

The menu is not the dinner….

Reading at Koloa and Anara Spa practices 2/28/2011 The experience is reality. Its description is a symbol. In other words, the menu is not the dinner. You can’t eat the menu; you can only eat the dinner. This mad compulsion to constantly measure creates the experience of time. This is the real meaning of sacrificing the soul for the world, or the spirit for the ego. My ego is a collection...

Lost

Reading at Waimea practice 9/21/2010 Stand still.  the trees ahead and bushes beside you are not lost.  Wherever you are is called Here, And you must treat it as a powerful stranger, Must ask permission to know it and be known. the forest breathes.  Listen, It answers, I have made a place around you, If you leave it may come back again, saying Here. NO two trees are the same to Raven. No two...
