Poetic PEACE Pilgrimage – Year 7 – Day 42 – 1/27/2020

on this day 75 years ago, the Soviet Red Army liberated the Jewish concentration camp of Auschwitz, in Poland… today is the International Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust… this post is dedicated to all who liberate and to all of us who are liberated…

in keeping with this dedication, i share my journey of the last 1500 plus days of aspiring to walk lightly on the journey home trusting our one heart to guide the way as we saunter in good company, beloved community, with the sangha of letting go, a caravan of re-joy-sing, as we surrender in service to the implicate order awakening to that which cannot be named… quantum leaping into the void (vortex of ineffable dimensionality) whose signposts can only point to where we are wandering as…

hollow reed, drop of dew, bubble floating in a stream

flickering light, phantom of the night, luminous, numinous dream

coming home to true emptiness, place of great silence, ground zero of all being

whirlwind spiraling silently while dancing stars form effortlessly

in open spaciousness of great mystery

The Real Work

It may be that when we no longer know what to do
we have come to our real work,

and that when we no longer know which way to go
we have come to our real journey.

The mind that is not baffled is not employed.

The impeded stream is the one that sings.

~ Wendell Berry ~

may we all awaken to the inner call of the heart, hear our soul song, let go, let go, let go  to trust in cosmic flow dancing and singing under the iridescent circle of great rainbow mystery
