So stay right here you lucky people
Today’s Delight: Here’s a spare assemblage of simple words that startled this morning and which may – for the sensative and subtle inner eye and ear – come as close as sharp pointed words can come to describing the profound nature of aware living. Perhaps you too, will be struck by its arrows that bypass mind and hit the heart. Love, and be well. 🙂
~ So stay right here you lucky people.
Let go and be happy in the natural state.
Let your complicated life and everyday confusion alone
And out of quietude, doing nothing, watch the nature of mind…
Fully engage in contemplation, and understanding is born;
Cherish non-attachment, and delusion dissolves;
And, forming no agenda at all, reality dawns.
Whatever occurs, whatever it may be, that itself is the key,
And without stopping it or nourishing it, in an even flow,
Freely resting, surrendering to ultimate contemplation,
In naked pristine purity, we reach consummation.
