the
deep
Stillness
of the Heart…
Lay it all down – just breath the Silence,
the Stillness of Being.
It doesn’t matter what you’ve been taught,
what words you have heard,
what beliefs you have believed…
Lay it all down – just listen to the Silence,
the deep Rhythm of the Heart.
Unconcern yourself with words,
beliefs - concepts of the dreaming mind.
Fill yourself with the Rhythm of the Stillness…
Lay it all down – just *live* from the Silence;
the still space within the Heart.
Live from the Silent Flame
that burns in your Heart;
brighter than any words,
any teachings, any beliefs,
revealing everything.

The Silence of which I speak is a
meditative Silence, a sacred Silence
in which we are aware of what is Aware
within us; where we are in communion with
that Eternal Being – that which is
our Essence…

Yes, this is what sacred stillness feels like... You've expressed it so well, Christine. I loved this, "Lay it all down – just breath the Silence, thee Stillness of Being." Ah, yes... lay it down, and be still. :o) Happy Weekend ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteThank you Dear Tracy :) Am glad you feel it too :) It's such a lovely space to be in... I have to keep remembering to turn and feel it... Heart Hugs...
Deletelovely.
ReplyDeleteand many don't realise that there is Rhythm in the Stillness.
YES! :) Glad you feel it too! It's a wonderful Rhythm. There's such a fullness to it... This space is not "empty", not a void, but absolutely full, alive... Thank you Monica :)
DeleteYour poem and photo reminded me that last night I used a different style of candle when meditating and it was the first time I really sat and concentrated on the flame itself - amazing! But as you so eloquently write, the flame of the heart goes beyond even that - "brighter than any words,
ReplyDeleteany teachings, any beliefs,
revealing everything."
ps: and how was I not an official "follower" before? lol
ReplyDeleteYes... "the flame" of Being is wonderfully beyond all that we know. You made me laugh with your "ps" :) I always wondered about that "following" thing myself. Glad you are now "official" :)
DeleteI'm here listening, thank you. x
ReplyDeleteThank you foxysue... :) Enjoying the Rhythm I hope :) Letting the waves of Sacred Silence carry you... Lovebeams across the waves...
Deletethats it friend!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ricardo! It was good for me to read this again :) So easy to lose perspective these days...
