HEAVEN WITHIN

 

You, Glorious,
who within us have constructed a Sacred Temple,
let us occupy it;
who within us have sown a Perfect Lotus,
let us admire it;
who within us have composed a Holy Palace,
let us inhabit it;
who within us have created an Idyllic Heaven,
let us relish it.
And You who are the
God of that Temple
Gardener of the Lotus
Composer of the Hymn
King of the Palace
And Lord of Heaven
How delightful to be able to thank and venerate you for the
glory you have created within us!

MAJESTIC CREATION

MAJESTIC CREATION
The Creator dreamt of making a Globe that would revolve in a magical dance in the middle of the universe to share, in that way, his great Love.
So he gathered his wonders and revealed them with all his might.
for Firmness - he asked his rocks to inhabit this Globe.
From the primordial light - he implored celestial fire to make the powerful sun.
From the universal sea, he obtained yielding waters for life’s sake.
From the solar energy, he requested its rays to upholster the planet in green.
And when with his grace the Creator arranged each detail for the coming of his beloved children, the wind transformed into melody amidst the trees and the light became a wonderful source of joy for the human race.
And when He came to his revolving Globe, his greatest concern was to give each one of his beloved sons all the excellence of his Love.

BUTTERFLY

LONGING

Butterfly so lovely
queen of the air
that swiftly soars
upon the highest winds.

One day you were a caterpillar
and God, who is so wise,
kept in you the dream
of becoming a winged being.

Had He placed in us the same longing
to be transformed by his light
from worldly beings-
to beings of dreams?

ORIGIN

The Infinite Ocean of calm
Sheer energy
floated in His glory
before the existence of time.
In His Kindness Supreme
He shared His essence,
created the universe,
and by His Eminent Grace
dwelled in our breath.

BELOVED

TENDERNESS
There is a child in my soul
who adores the memory
of his beloved Father.

There is a Creator of dawn
who awards his son with
the most beautiful fragrance
of all flowers,
and tells him,
“I always love you.”
with each breath.

POWERFUL THREAD OF LOVE

INFINITY
In your Divine dominion creatures display their play with grace.
Your infinite Kindness fills with beauty each form. A powerful thread of Love knits them all.

WITHIN

LOVE SUBLIME
In turbulent sea, you are my anchor
in torment, my peace;
in your remembrance is my bliss
and at your feet, my abode.

DIVINITY
In the kingdom of my heart
within the peace inside of me
you inspire an awareness
past reason,
beyond thought.

In each breath you visit me
in each moment your love is there
for all of this I thank you
wondrous Creator.

KING

You, King of Heart - Being sublime, your Kindness is so great; your splendor is such that wise men say it is worth waiting at the threshold of your palace, until the door is opened.
Those who raise their sight towards that vast interior remain dazzled.
Oh, King! May we know such bliss!

PERCEPTION

PERCEPTION
When I feel you, Kindness,
the rose bush offers me its choicest perfume,
spring seeks to reflect your Essence
and the joyful breeze dances.
Upon feeling you
your light floods me
your peace enchants me
your joy beckons me
to enjoy the remembrance
of the flower of my soul.
When the wind
bears your resonance
life dances
the spirit shines
and the earth sings.
