Well isn't that special?

 

He's the ocean of bliss and we cannot respond except directly to his personal

Ocean of Bliss Email addy.

 

Yeah, I am the Garden of Earthly Delights Too, but I try not to gush about it

too much, folks!

"I,I" - a freeform poem

 

I glow from within, lit by my own radiance.

The body, the mind, they are not mine.

Through ignorance I have become associated

with form, substance, dream. I am not that.

There is nothing to describe me, no words.

No thoughts, no symbols.. I wear no clothing.

Nothing but Eternal peace and bliss, this,

One very moment... there is no other but I.

 

I, the reality, clothed in disguise...

OM, the bridge across forever.

I am the clear light of emptiness.

OM, the bow of the soul, empty of all

but what is real.

 

In me there are no distinctions,

no past-present-future, no here or there.

I am everywhere and nowhere, the light

that shines bright across the heart of Eternity.

 

In me is all that ever was, all that has ever been,

all that ever will be, in one eternal instant devoid of time.

I cannot be described, nor thought of, nor dreamed of.

I cannot be imagined, nor felt, nor seen, nor heard.

 

The single timeless Eternal Fact I AM...

Devoid of form, of time, of causation.

 

Cross the bridge of OM to reach me,

the bridge across the ocean of dream.

Chant me, the no-chant OM, until

the dream ends. Until the Reality begins.

Satchidananda I am, forever bliss-being-love.

Nowhere and everywhere I am, and you cannot see me.

You can only be me.

 

....
