Do you hear spring?

Do you hear spring?

Wild is the ground with a seed so deep

But not for long and not to keep

Minute by minute and hour by hour

When it arrives no struggle is the flower

Pushing through, yes that is what it can do

A bud to bloom, what wonder in view

Many come now that winter is over

Settling down in beautiful cover

Sunlight and rain, flowers rise up and sing

Can you hear that? Once again it's spring

Attracting a positive life*

For a moment while I am here

Let us get out of the fuzzy and make it clear

So you say that you are in debt

Subliminally not knowing is what you see is what you get

So now that a glimmer has shown you with a hint

This begins to look a little better without a tint

You see it is what you are doing that makes it attract

You keep "thinking" about it and it is still on your back

But let us just say that now you "think" of the opposite side

And you become discipline in this "thinking" you abide

Instead of having doubt and saying "I suppose"

Those are not the words that you have chose

Yes it is all in a part of a frequency of greater attitude

This is a shift in being thankful or gratitude

And with this shift we see that we cannot resist

Do what I did and start making a separate list

Start with the one list with positive things to say

And stem from that and you will see a way

Now also write down the negative ones too

Noticing that these are minor and really not you

So now as you see with what focus to of course be

All you have is remember that positive list and you will see

Some things may still flair up and have a little tift

But keep your focus stronger on the positive shift

When you become good at this as a master as well

You will know the track you are on and each moment will tell

Because now like before your conditions have been freed

And you are now of a positive creed

Good luck on your journey out of debt that you know

Remember you are life, death is negative and life always flows

Freedom is when you truly see*

Freedom that we just do not see

We believe it is agenda to all humanity

But humanity relies on a condition from another man

Hence this is false this truth does not stand

For that man does not know who he is

His way of life does not go from that to this

He puts himself in a bind all around

His source is within and not the surround

It is his ego that he believes is his power

But his life diminishes more and more from second to hour

It is the texture of nothing that he walks in

He does not see it for it it hits him again and gain

For this is his freedom nothingness is his truth

The way of life he follows is like a tree without roots

So if he uses strength in liberation to be

This man is only fooling himself in never to be free

There once was a traveler going across many lands. He did not stay in too many towns as he retreated mostly in the mountains and along trails in the forest. He was deeply in tuned with his nature and it was his awareness and insights that made him know many things before they ever happened. It was a very hot summer where he was but he took it easy where he was going.

Along his journey he became weary and a bit tired and decided to take refuge under a spruce tree in the forest. He laid down on some leaves and took out a small quilt from his pack. Finally he was deep in his slumber, when all of the sudden he heard a buzzing in his ear. He brushed it away many times but that buzzing kept coming back. He had just about enough of that buzzing and woke up. It was a blood thirsty mosquito or was it?

What he did not know when he was shooing the flying pest away there was a terrible forest fire approaching him in the surround. He looked at the situation and fled through an opening just barely missing the flames that were fast approaching. He made it unscathed and felt relieved that he did. But then it dawned on him and he was taken back for a second. It was the mosquito warning him of impending danger coming and he had to get up quickly or he would perish in such a terrible environment.

Just the small innocent things that many take for granted or ignore all together that are our Bodhisattvas. They are planted in our lives to reach another point in a our quest to be awakened as this is the workings of the Soul* that knows of us right where we are as we have been here before with it. Never scoff away something that you might believe it is a pest for it truly is a savior in disguise.

A clearing that sees within from without*

I start on the path at the bottom of the mountain

One foot over the other and pushing upward like a fountain

A strong force is pushing back onto me

It is invisible and it goes through us all, it is gravity

But with correct breathing this seems to make one at ease

Pressure not so intense as it begins to cease

The halfway mark, how did I do?

The path I stay on keeps the summit in view

A few more steps and some turns with a bend

This I know with a clearing yes it is the end

So now that I have made to the top

3491 feet at 40 degrees that was my stop

So I know that I cannot go any further to see

The point at which I am at is where the clouds look back at me

The center of the teacup has no veil*

Just take a good look around you and see that all is suffering no matter if it looks pleasant or not. For deep down inside all suffer from insecurities in fear, worry, anger and guilt and it is because they are all a part of a dream.

You say a "dream". Yes, if you go a little deeper than what you are seeing you will see that it is you as well dreaming and in this dream you are actually contributing to their KARMA in wishes to have what they have but because of this what they have is KARMA and that is why it comes to you more and more. In this dream your wishes are to be free from mental and physical burdens because this is your belief that you are suffering from. Without the cause there is no condition and that in pursuance gives you this pain.

OK, moving ahead with this in the deeper reality you are seeing. So you are pulling away from this dream and realizing who you are that you were always meant to be and that is to be awakened in which in fact you are, as you are dreaming of you in the awakened state but not fully developed like a flower in its bloom. As a matter of fact the more you are pulling away from this state of being the more you are orchestrating it like a director in a movie watching the script act out for you as you are slowly not belonging of that world you are watching but being in the world that you are seeing.It is like you got behind the mirror and was no longer of that reality you believed with all its pain and suffering and now observing how others react to keep their dreams alive and still going. This is where the suffering continues in playing off others to continue this unknown script of dreaming as others cannot see the end in sight for them while they are still 'trying' to piece something together that in fact is an illusion that they wish in desire to have and work out for them. In ZEN* there is a riddle called two hands clapping make a sound as one hand sounds like what? Nothing as there is no duality in nothing as nothing always came from the first. So right then and there you see that now all is an illusion and this illusion wishes to dance with you in keeping that dream alive.

Now with the little experience I have in waking up with two awakened truths of my own as I did not know what this was in a green or young state of awareness, as I aborted from it and went back into complacency of the world of homo sapien, I can see that once one does fully awaken they are no longer of that picture that is moving on the wheel as all has been satisfied in balance and with balance one can no longer be a part of the KARMA that people in the dream are still pursuing so then this becomes a no obstacle path in where you go for where you go will always be here where you were meant and the blueprinted Soul* knows of all your well being in everything endeavor that is inside you and no longer is that search in the dream possible. it is like you just became an oak tree and now satisfied and content right where you are and in this awakened truth that trust bonded between you and within has paid off to make you see that you have been missing while you were of someone else's KARMA and following them around in analyzation by willing your life like theirs instead of yours. You just did not know that you had this wisdom inside of yourself as to be attached to the Great Mahayana or wheel of suffering you did not see where all this was coming from as you were directing it and being an actor in playing it out as well.

All around you that surrounds you is non physical and it is called stillness and because it is like this it as well, it is the center of the teacup in balance and in balance it is called nothingness. Nothingness or no-thingness surrounds us all as it is in this then when the veil is finally remove it is no-thingness can ever be seen again as now you are getting a clearer picture of where you are and who you are as the best example of this is my mantra which is the center of the teacup. You can see how round the teacup is but you cannot see the center that made it as all that is in the round is the wheel of suffering and because it is the wheel it wears a veil that it follows others with their KARMA as well. So when that center is emptied it can no longer be of that world and that world cannot see your world because of their wishes, desires, hopes and dreams they are still pursuing but instead following KARMA and getting lost in it. To me the veil is gone and the reality you are now in is played out in whole part by what is within yourself and to me that is fully blown awakened awareness in your own intuition that you have seen yourself from before in the vague state of dreaming but now opened and self realized in who you always were. Awakened.

My eyes see it come back*

Many years ago when I use to believe

My eyes had sight in goals to perceive

Strong for reason knowing it works out somehow

"Mind" within such perception when one allows

As time went by and there was such a struggle

What was I striving for in this uphill tussle?

Could this be in what we came here for?

Or something that is lesser than this that could be more

For some odd feeling there was no outside the box

I had the key within myself to open up this lock

The fuel was desire into it I fell

Conditioning for many years under its spell

As it is suffering that comes from desires

This conditioning was ignorance that was hardwired

But now I see the world is not outside

Instead I seek in depths within so vast and wide

This was what I came here for and I should have known

All these moments past it was the me I didn't know was shown

So now that to which I seek can no longer be

That to which I sought for is inside of me

I guess when you start out in life the path is really here

Learning from ignorance in an external world is not so clear

But with a little bit of know how and discipline with dedication

You will now see your eyes turn back within this direction
