"Peace begins with every one of us with

every step we take

and every word we speak".

Joyce: As I begin to take photographs of the glorious clouds, a man

and woman walking together gesture, theirs arms raised in unison,

pointing me to the sky behind me. I turn around and look up into the

sky and see a rainbow! Namaste.

....then the rainbow

fades completely...

ShivAllahSita sutras shattered into prism pixil performers presented

in poem and party colors and manifested as the Beautiful One's

radiant Rainbow Re-deep,

deeeeep in Dharmic Dazzlement,

D'Om-ing the Tao

in dear little tree frog ditty critter Opera.

the Operator Orates in Echoes of every color ever, in all three worlds...

I died from minerality and became vegetable;

And From vegetativeness I died and became animal.

I died from animality and became man.

Then why fear disappearance through death?

Next time I shall die

Bringing forth wings and feathers like angels;

After that, soaring higher than angels -

What you cannot imagine,

I shall be that.

~Rumi

Om Namah ShivaShakti

I offer obeisance to the God and Goddess,The limitless primal parents

of the universe.They are not entirely the same,Nor are they not the

same.We cannot say exactly what they are.How sweet is their union!The

whole world is too small to contain them,Yet they live happily in the

smallest particle.These two are the only onesWho dwell in this home

called the universe.When the Master of the house sleeps,The Mistress

stays awake,And performs the functions of both.When He awakes, the

whole house disappears,And nothing at all is left.Two lutes: one

note.Two flowers: one fragrance.Two lamps: one light.Two lips: one

word.Two eyes: one sight.These two: one universe.

In unity there is little to behold;So She, the mother of

abundance,Brought forth the world as play.He takes the role of

WitnessOut of love of watching Her.But when Her appearance is

withdrawn,The role of Witness is abandoned as well.Through Her,He

assumes the form of the universe;Without Her,He is left naked.If

night and day were to approach the Sun,Both would disappear.In the

same way, their duality would vanishIf their essential Unity were

seen.In fact, the duality of Shiva and ShaktiCannot exist in that

primal unitive stateFrom which AUM emanates.They are like a stream of

knowledgeFrom which a knower cannot drinkUnless he gives up himself.Is

the sound of AUM divided into threeSimple because it contains three

letters?Or is the letter 'N' divided into threeBecause of the three

lines by which it is formed?So long as Unity is undisturbed,And a

graceful pleasure is thereby derived,Why should not the water find

delightIn the floral fragrance of its own rippled surface?It is in

this manner I bowTo the inseparable Shiva and Shakti.A man returns to

himselfWhen he awakens from sleep;Likewise, I have perceived the God

and GoddessBy waking from my ego.When salt dissolves,It becomes one

with the ocean;When my ego dissolved,I became one with Shiva and

Shakti.

We are certainly salt doll dirges,

dangerously delicious in our yellow and ochre anonimity

as we fall into This Bliss we Kiss the Conundrum,

dipping our beautiful moans into the river of praise...

Praise this One!

Praise this Chum and Champion of our cause!

Praise this maze of mystery we jiva-jabber about -

As-If.....

OneHeart flew into the mirror of itSelf.....

Recognizing no one

Understanding everyone is OneHeart as Light

in flight, freedom flight...in I Am

OneHeart

LoveAlways,

Mazie
