One moment I breathe easy
Another moment I gasp for my breath.
One moment I feel a great return,
Another moment I feel I am drowning and sinking.
Death has taught me so much,
And yet I wish loss wasn’t a teacher.
Dying and being reborn is a choice.
Some choices we make while living,
Some choices we make while leaving.
Death brings freedom,
Freedom from the cage that we build when we live.
We tame n create self bondage,
And then we crave to be free.
When free, we crave connection again.
And through the connection we cage or become encaged again.
Death and re birth (literal or metaphoric) isn’t a linear journey.
Both are intertwined.
One cell dying while simultaneously giving rise to another.
One breath ceasing and giving rise to another.
Like never ending waves of the ocean of life,
We keep ebbing and flowing.
Often befuddled, amidst control and surrender, plagued with fear n loss
Enmeshed, entangled.. yet seeking to be free and fly away to the stars
Only to come back and re create old story and aching to be free again.
Maya. – she is NOT illusion,
But a human experience fully embodied and experienced.
But we neither live her fully nor understand her mystery.
Mastery – did we come here to live fully the human or did we come here to elevate to what we already descended from?
Mystery is woven in each breath. And In the pain we often forget.
This secret, this search keeps us on a perpetual quest.
But what if Life, the great human existence and experience we often call as Maya is what we have exactly come here for?
The mirage that we seek in the spirit, in the outer, what if it is actually inside us.
We seek to liberate through understanding and mastering energy. But what if the mastery is also or only to understand and embody the mystery of the wisdom of matter, the body, the earth ??
For, what is Awakening if not being awakened to the wisdom of this Great Plain we have been sent to ?
What if we need the earth instead of earth needing us ??
My only knowing so far has been that duality is oneness. Oneness is duality.
All routes lead to the same truth. The truth, which is only Relative and hence The Great Mystery.
