meditation
a practice no one can practise
abandoning all hope
free of a doer
no intention or goal
accepting and surrendering
all that arises
going nowhere
for where would one go
and who is there to go
giving all to the moment
the moment that cannot be thought
not knowing, not knowing, not knowing
drowning in silence
abandoned to the waves
no defence or resistance
offering all that I am
letting it take me
where it will
trusting the infinite
knowing wave is ocean
ocean is wave
there’s nothing but ocean
I’m there between each breath
but you don’t see me
I’m there between each thought
but you ignore me
I’m there when you’ve attained
your desire
but you don’t acknowledge me
I’m there in your heart
but you don’t feel my beat
I’m always in front of your eyes
but you don’t recognize me
follow the language
that has no letters, no words
that nobody can speak
that nobody can hear
listen deeply
be open to it
let it embrace you
it is only this language
that will take you
to the secret garden
oceans
horizon beyond horizon
infinite space
mind without reference
free of all frontiers
there
take your abode
to know yourself in silence
beyond the mind
without parameter
free of all association
all longing quenched
in the knowing who I am
the last rites have been read
the story book closed
living in unknown territory
each moment fresh, new
no words to define it
living in wonderment
