With the energy we’re saving
By minimizing craving
We increase intelligence
Dispelling ignorance
By dissolving our arrogance
With precise questions
Absent aggression
Thought sludge sinks
Heavy views
Of what we thought we knew
Depressurize and shrink
In the spacious infinity
Of audacious serenity
Illusory subjectivity,
That mendacious duality,
Of persona’s insularity
Ceases to reify, then ossify
Far better to inspire and simplify,
Sanctify and revivify
With un-fixated mind in non-located time
There’s jubilant gratitude
With an exuberant multitude!
Ego’s distraction
Is unskillful action
Distorted abstraction
In knee-jerk reaction
Trivialized absurdities
Emphasized externalities
Indulging incoherent eccentricities
Is unconscionable irresponsibility
The nowness of breath
Is vainglory’s death
In desire’s demise
Craving’s downsized
In expansive magnificence
Of silence’s beneficence
Discursiveness acquiesces
In centerless quietness
In luminous consciousness
The wave is the ocean once more
Harmony in motion is restored
Compassionate wisdom,
Clear Light through a prism
Fills full hearts and bright minds,
Unblinking eyes that shine
In open cloudless skies we synchronize
Our lucid intentions, with consonant emotions
Revealing spontaneous inventions
In concurrent dimensions
Cojoined by strands of attention
Ecstatic comprehension
We deep dive into stillness
Beyond light and darkness
Or pain and pleasureless-ness
Or Joy and sadness
Or death and aliveness
Or dullness and fullness
Until all is nothing
Tremendous ordinary nothingness
And nothing is all
Oh, it’s nothing really,
Really nothing at all
In the gob smacked eternity of tranquility
We release undo and let go of dichotomy
There’s nothing to tempt me
When there’s plenty of empty
In the boundlessness of impermanence
There’s transcendence of otherness
This inseparable oneness is limitless bliss
Sentience at play
In love’s exceedingly meaningful
Beautiful way
– Colin Farish
