Lesson 29 & 30.

[Guest guest]

Lesson 29.

 

The Beloved God of your heart,

bids you rest in all you see.

She arouses you

with a sensuous movement,

that arises like dew

within the garden of your soul.

That sinuous stirring,

is your awakening in Her.

 

Because you are lovers,

you share the same bed of purpose.

Your rest, is both within and without.

Nothing has meaning

without Her fragrance.

It is the heart of the Rose in the seen.

A reality only Love detects.

 

Everything appears

with the insignia of Love upon it.

The regalia of the Universe

bursts out of the bud of all gratitude.

A joining of loves appreciation.

The respect of your view.

Love greets you smiling. Saying:

I never leave you.

I am the seer,

the seeing and the seen.

 

Manifestation lights the world,

and the world hides within it.

It is the nature of the Mother

to show Herself to Her Children.

It is the nature of the children

to hid behind Her aprons.

Her substance and Her essence

are the bread and wine of Life.

You need not reject one to find the other.

Just see God in everything.

Lesson 30.

 

Seeing and being are one.

The Inner sky is where clouds are formed,

not in the outer.

When the heart of this awareness shines,

clarity beams outwards to all.

 

Vision springs from the mind

to wholeness.

All things open up within you,

and come back as an embrace

from God.

 

Forget and forgive, the images

you mistook for the world.

They were the flotsam and jetsam

of a fleet of ghosts ships.

 

Seeing and being are one ocean.

There is no raft or tide,

for separateness to cling to.

What you see becomes your love,

and what you love you see.

 

love
