Phil Beautiful Phil, advaita means one-not one-not two, the storm subsides for we know sunlight, the silence is for we have heard all words in both praise and dedication and trials of tribulations, acknowledgments and judgments even as arrogance sleeps in the hearts of those who would hide from suffering reality,the flesh, ripped and torn asunder in the downward spiral of human DNA, the sleeper awakens, to the matter of what Is IS, Kundalini awakens lovers of life in an upwards spiral, oh, listen to the sound and the beauty of a butterfly as she unfurls her wings in the palms of our hands, we must let go, to let go, we let go, she flies and the sky weeps in gratitude as the rain that falls in the tears of compassionate beings who understand both silence and right action, a humanity of One-noOne.

Ana Love, Ana Thanks. This is fun. The music The two seek one As music seeks it's own harmony. The musician doesn't fix the notes He plays them, And if he's very, very good He doesn't even play them He becomes them. For the sake of the music The flute doesn't play the violin. It adds it's fluteness To the violinness For the sake of the music. Pitch does not stand resolute But sacrifices it's perfection To seek harmony until it is found For the sake of the music. The dancer is neither writer nor player of the music Nor is she the instrument which seeks harmony Or the pitch that seeks resonance. She is the eyes of the music And if she's very, very good She doesn't even dance She becomes the music. For the sake of the music. The performance Is a performance of one. There is neither musician nor dancer. For both have dissolved in perfect harmony Into the music. For the sake of the music. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil I am the dervish who danced into This Oh, feverish abandon, I am the romance of Spirit with Soul, Oh, glorious melody now dance me. Oh, unseen hands pluck my strings and fine tune me, you are perfect, I play to the hollow echos of wind and fall under the spell of saltwater, I resonate harmonic convergencies in saffron dusk and blue twilights, Oh, our hearts gather the scent of lilacs, a God-flower, I waft and disintegrate into that sweet night when we first met, when you slipped off my veil of Harmony Our Devotion of One, a crescendo of Bliss, ever-desiring, ever spiraling, ever rapturing. We empty into oneAnother and drown all Sounds into Silence. I thank you Phil I am at dancewithwords dance with me there too, Beloved Phil, love, Ana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've actually been a wall flower there for a little while now. I'm the one pretending to tie my dancing shoes while I watch the dance.
