The greatest attainment

The Sufi, therefore, takes the path of being nothing instead of being something. It is this feeling of nothingness which turns the human heart into an empty cup into which the wine of immortality is poured.

It is this state of bliss which every truth-seeking soul yearns to attain. It is easy to be a learned person, and it is not very difficult to be wise. It is within one’s reach to become good. And it is not an impossible achievement to be pious or spiritual. But if there is an attainment greater and higher than all these things, it is to be nothing.

Divine contradiction

Love annuls all distinctions.

Yet, being distinctly differentiated is the highest form of Love.

Icy love

Your image is lingering

Like an icy Icon

Longing for colours

Long gone

We meet in countless crystal facets

We meet

On and on

I am heavenly frozen

In your juvenile iridescence

Stop killing your passion

There is no greater sin than holding back
your humanity,
your Love,
and your genuine expression.

Let us play!

I wrote this post some time ago, but I thought I would re-post it as I find it meaningful.

As I nowadays have big issues with linear time, I kind of feel ageless, turning five each and every moment. It`s great and unbelievable.

I never realized before that life can be a discontinuously-continuous surprise each instant.

To my amazement, there is no such thing as boredom anymore. No worries left. Yes, it might sound like a perplexing way to put it, but instead of me “living”, I am sustained and “lived” by an Eternal state of surprise. Frustrations, resentments, disappointments, regrets and projections are dead. Loss is dead too. Even so my sense of shortage. Thought and fears have been replaced by a secretly simple but ”all-encompassing” joy and gratefulness. This grateful Joy is so unobtrusively permeating every second, every breath is so real.

You can feel it, almost touch it, this Joy is so uncalculated and spontaneous, wise and unpredictable, so tempestuously creative.

It bursts into laughter and childish appreciation, but this inner mighty cheerfulness is so pervasively aware, empathic and lovable - it knows too what sorrow and hardship and suffering is about…

 So…

 Let´s play a while!

To Melissa

The shore is awaiting the evasive shadow…

Your eyelashes are tremblingly eager

Like your fading glance

Reaching far a purple dream

The season

The melting silk

The mute swan

They all wait

For the return

 

February 22nd – turning 5

Oh, if we could remind us to celebrate life…
If not every moment, but now and then
during the day…

Yes, a little more Joy.
A little more childish trust and
healthy naivety.

A little more simplicity, generosity
towards yourself,
and the ones you meet on your way…

We easily forget…

Far too often, we fall victims of our “human” shortages
indulging too often in sorrow, pain
and despondency,
in fruitless guilt and regret,
bitterly complaining, forgetting the sky inside
and above us,
yes, forgetting To Love.

To love is to dare feel Joy…the simple joy
of trusting and opening to Life.

The Joy of gratitude…

I feel this joy now, this gratitude of
sharing these very words together with you
through endless time and space.

If you want to understand anything…

FORGET EVERYTHING YOU KNOW

A prayer

Release us from our Memory,

As Memory prevents us from knowing

Your Love Now

A timid whisper

We walk together

Yet you don´t always see me

You may just

Hear my breath

So breath in

I am your Inspiration

Whispering to you
