Her Majesty: the Flight

A man trained to kill

he was within US special forces
he had his group of fighters

they were all trained to kill

his left hand is broken in 5 places
his eyes lit when he talks about fight

He says: most of the martial arts have too many kicks
you don't need that - it is unnecessary,
the only thing you need is to know how to control the distance
and than you go for the throught, kidneys and knee caps
Skull is too hard, you do not go for the head

And he says - they don´t even feel the pain - pain comes later
and you disable them for life
or kill them in a minute...

He talks about people as though he talks about numbers

They were trained to fight the comunists
and when the cold war was over
Army didn't know what to do with them
- they were too many
so they started sending them to war zones
to get them killed...

He said, I lost half of my people
when I decided to quit
I went to Europe, saw people in suits, living ok,
with an ok salary - and I thought: I can do this
I got a suit and started my own business

I don´t fight any more he said, only once
when 3 people tried to rob me - they were from Yugoslavia

One was behind me with the gun and I felt his distance
He is close enough for me to get him, I thought
and the fight was over in 2 minutes, they were all unconscious
before I even put my money into my pocket...

And I cried after I met him
I cried for the humanity that has created him
I cried for him and all the ones he wouldn't count
And I prayed for him
I prayed with all the might of my prayer
So God would forgive him and forgive us for letting it happen

Francis of Asissi poem

God came to my house and asked
for charity.
And I fell on my knees and
cried, "Beloved,

what may I give?"

"Just love," He said.
"Just love".

Rumi

" Don't look at your form, however ugly or beautiful. Look at love and at the aim of your quest. ...O you whose lips are parched, keep looking for water. Those parched lips are proof that eventually you will reach the source." Rumi

Now imagine White Light

Light waves are waves of energy in the form of electric and magnetic fields. The amount of energy in a light wave is proportional to its frequency: high frequency light has high energy; low frequency light has low energy. The frequency of visible light is: color, and ranges from low frequency red, and high frequency violet. The combination of every color in the visible spectrum produces white. The full range of frequencies extends beyond the visible spectrum, so we have radio waves, ultra violet rays, etc. Light waves move at their maximum 300,000 kilometers per second which makes light the fastest phenomenon in the universe.

His Consciousness

To Glorious Wisdom of Love
To the Profound Heart Sound
To Great Awareness of the enlightened few
To Limitless Space of Compassion
To Alertness of Bliss and Emptiness

To the Mind riding on the wind of Light
To Amitaba and Amideva
To Milarepa and Baba Ji
To you my Father and Mather
Whose Merge brought me here
To experience
The Diamond Being
Within the Primeordial Consciousness
of One

Getting enlightened

I got enlightened today
I tapped into the power of Nature
Reclaimed my authority
of the Son of Man and Son of God
Through the heresy and anarchy
I connected with the pulsating
Universe
and understood
Her Strength & His Love

Buddha Mind

It is so vast
I can feel It

Expanding
Exploding
Exploring
Every call of my body
It is so vast
I entered It
And
It left me
Broken
into 1,000,000s of pieces

It is so vast
Without time
Without space & essence
It has never begun
And will never end
Like an Orgasm
That laaaaasts for-ever

∞ Like the Universe
In a grain of sand

Like Light
Like Love
Like Movement
Within my DNA
Like Silence

In between two breaths

Like Death giving birth toLife

Like you and me in my dreams

abyss of shadows

My bird keeps flying directly towards my cat
she comes to me only when the cat is in my lap
she lands exactly where the cat sleeps
she exits her nest only when she hears the cat purring

and yesterday I saved her from the cat's jaws - will she learn?

or will she stay flying towards the deadly embrace
over-and-over-again
choosing a completely un-fair fight over her deepest fears

or will she burn sacrificing her fragile body
within the same attraction
a butterfly suicidally enters a flame

or will she learn
to live
with her hypnotic fascination
in the same way
we - mortals - can learn
to live
with our fascination
with light
keeping our journey
towards the death
long and intense
walking the edge
but not falling
into the abyss of its shadows
