Jai Guru Datta,

 

Today I was browsing through a book of poetry called The Way of Power by Red

Hawk. In it is a section of poems about his relationship with his guru. I

thought I might share one with the group.

 

Sri Guru Datta,

Entering Reality

 

We are going to the home of the spiritual master

having flown a 1000 miles

and driven an hour and a half

because there is nothing in this world for me

like beholding the wonder of His face.

 

As we enter the gates of the ashram

I am reminded of what a pilot once told me:

there is a point when an airplane is

1/4 mile out from the end of the runway,

150 feet off the ground, 200 mph.

 

When no matter what occurs

it cannot go back on its landing.

They call this "entering reality."

We approach the house and we see Mister Lee ( the poet's guru)

sitting there in his chair waiting.

 

As we reach the sliding glass doors

He looks up, smiling eyes

like two planets consumed with glory.

We enter

There is no going back.
