Meaning
The attainment
of meaning
is the expression
of love
unconditional
from
our higher self
through
one's physical
feelings
and thoughts
by attunment
with
all expressions
of Divinity,
mankind
and man
from the position
ever changing
this lifetime
of one's self.
A Prayer:
The Path of Choice.
Beloved Father-Mother-Son God,
Creator of all things
Through whose Eternal hands
Move the souls of all Mankind...
We gaze with earthly awe
at Thy All-Embracing Kingdom,
yet the gateway to Thy Kingdom
lies open, within ourselves.
Let us choose...
with our Divine gift of Free-Will
to bind ourselves
to our Higher-Selves
and to one another
with Love, Compassion and Forgiveness.
May we choose
never to intrude within
nor harm
by thought, word or deed
any of Thy creations,
their sacred soul-space,
their possessions
nor ourselves.
Let us be of service
without any desire
for recognition or return,
to each other
and to those of greater
and lesser awareness,
whether on the earthplane
or in other dimensions
beyond our understanding.
May we
who are imperfect
not pronounce Karmic judgment
except upon ourselves;
let us avoid
bonding ourselves permanently
to matter
to desire
and to our lower-selves.
Rather
let us nourish
within ourselves
that Divine spark
of Unconditional Love
for Mankind and for Life ...
and by so doing,
may we earn the right
to remain worthy instruments
of Thy Divine Light.
AMEN
Giving
Giving
of the power
within
joins all
in the art and skill
of Divinity.
It is
a delicate circular balance
of four :
The boundless force
of the Spirit
which waits, then enters
through the choice
and submission
of the Giver
to be adapted
and moulded
as a Gift
to fill , over time
a need
within the Receiver.
But
if the size
and texture
of the Gift
is seen and limited
by the eye
of the self;
or
if the Receiver
cannot perceive
nor accept
then
the force
fails with sorrow
in its quest.
It then pauses,
encircles and awaits.
Yet, when all begin
to resonate in harmony
there is but half
of perfect balance.....
For
once given
it turns slowly
changing form
then travels back
through converse roles
without names
enriching all -
completing
the eternal circle
of Divinity.
The Burst of Ecstasy
The burst of ecstasy
which heralds
the first meeting
with Spirit
soon fades
into routines.
The memories
of the Light
and the journeys therein
distance themselves
within daily events.
The Path...
illuminated at first
becomes tarnished.
It twists
ever narrowing
winds around
precipitous heights
and ends
on a tightrope
unlit.
Reality strikes
that apart
from those above
and few alongside,
you are isolated
by choice
on your pre-destined route
into Spirit.
Naked
exposed
alone
and vulnerable,
you stand
pitted against physical
armed only
with Love...Light
and Creative Thought,
your instruments
for your journey.
Then
with absolute Faith
step off the tightrope
with your guide
and soar
into the realms
of Divinity.
A Prayer of Thanks
Beloved Father-Mother-Son God
Creator of all things
through whose Eternal hands
move the souls of all mankind,
and from whose Infinite Light
emerge our beloved guides;
we welcome,
with humility
the presence
of Thy divine teachers
in our space.
We
who struggle
with our progression
into Spirit;
.....who choose
to kneel
as naked souls
in Thy Divine Light;
give thanks.......
for all our higher learning;
for the beauties of the earthplane
and our senses that perceive them;
for our visions of spiritual splendour
glimpsed with eyeless sight;
......for the ecstasy
of being a channel;
for the joy of giving
whatever has been given;
for the privileged presence
of Thy Unconditional Love
that surges between our souls;
and we pray
to be honoured
with continued service.
Prayer at a Funeral
We mortals
are gathered here
to return
to Mother Earth
the temporary shell
that served the soul
of...........
during her sojourn
this time
on the earthplane
Never
should we believe
that our beloved.......
has left us forever,
for only her physical
has departed
from our sight.
Her love
personality and intellect
that touched many
will live on.
Permanent threads of Love
created by positive bonding
between her soul and ours
will remain
unbroken
forevermore
for all are linked
as groups and nations
within the Kingdom of God.
She would want all
who today
honour her physical form
to wish her well
on her path
to Divinity
Let not the negative bonds
of anguish and despair
hamper her progress
for all has been Destined
and nothing can be changed
Only by giving out
the Divine vibrations
of Love, Compassion and Forgiveness
to her soul
( for there are none
who are perfect on earth )
may we wish her Godspeed,
and brighten her path
into Spirit.
She would wish
us to believe
as she did in her physical
and as she now does
even more in Spirit
that she lives on
in another dimension
beyond our understanding.
She would urge us
to accept
that only those
who transmit love
who neither call
nor desire
may be met
during those quiet hours
in dreams or meditations
merely by energizing
those positive threads
already created
by the bonds of love.
As birth
onto the earthplane
ends the fixed time
within the womb
so birth
into Spirit
ends that fixed time
within the physical.
As the severance
of the cord
from the mother
begins a physical life,
so the severance
of the etheric cord
from mother earth
begins a new life
within Spirit.
She would implore all
who respected her shell
who were bound to her
with bonds of love
to accept
unconditionally
her passage
into a higher dimension
surrounded always
with guidance
and protection
by the messengers
of God.
We
on the earthplane
pray
that God may grant us wisdom
to understand
the wondrous workings
of His Kingdom
that the physical emptiness
in our lives
may be filled
by the Love
and the Light
of our Creator.
Amen
Unconditional Love
The expression
of love, unconditionally
seems confined, uniquely
to the Kingdom of Man.
When one gives
from deep within
of oneself
to another
or others -
without desire
for recognition
nor return -
this act of faith
has been named
Unconditional Love.
When one seeks
hidden answers
transcending this act
one discovers
the essence
of Spiritual Truth....
Unconditional Love
is a measure
of man's inner response
to the Light of Divinity;
the unique ability :-
to acknowledge
to submit
to receive
then to transmit
to others
the Light
which honours his physical
by its cherished passage
through earthtime.
Seeking still deeper
for spiritual simplicity
within this Love
the Truth is revealed
like a misty dawn
over a mirrored lake...
........Unconditional Love
is
God
giving to mankind
through those
who choose
to be His channels.
The Whirlpool and Thread.
There is
an ache
within my chest
...drawing in
...pulling down;
an odd mix,
painful yet sublime-
like a whirlpool
turquoise in colour
bursting with lights
going down
deep within
through its vortex
into a cavern
subterranean.
There is
as well,
visible only
to a few,
the thread
of Infinite Light
drawn from above
which glitters golden
as it whirls down
through the vortex
into the cavern,
whose waters
singing in rivulets
bubbling forth in springs
support all Life
which stands above.
To arrest the flow
divert the force
deprives many
and submerges those
whose thoughts desire...
for the thread
belongs not
to those few
who behold its glory,
but to all
who worship Life.
The ache
is but part
of that thread
whose Divine path
enriches those
who know and kneel
submitting
to its passage
through their devotion.
Preparation
First we shall acknowledge
the Omnipresence of Divinity
above, all around and within
Then we shall submit
our mortal , lower selves
to be cleansed , and healed
by the Light
Next we shall receive
as a gift from this light
a ray of spiritual splendour
whose passage, through earthtime
is maintained and entrusted
to those
who choose
to be channels
Finally
we shall transmit
with Unconditional Love
to those who need
a reflection of this Light
then and only then
may we rejoice.
This last poem was a pivotal point in the path of awareness.
Perhaps it would be opportune to expand on its origins.
It was during an intense period of meditation on the service of offering,
that four words arrived emblazoned from outside of my consciousness in
the following order:
Acknowledge
Submit
Receive
Transmit
It seemed that these words had a life of their own and they proceeded
to arrange themselves into 'Preparation'.
This poem closes a chapter of Unfolding and opens a new one of Revelation.
Most of the poems that follow are based on the priciples embodied
within the meaning of the combination of these words.
