Present the natural face of Zen
Contours defined by pure indulgence
Without being enslaved by words
Holding on to the Sutras of Sastras
Verses profound elevates consciousness
Focus on non-conceptual concepts
Take time to align with the facets
Brevity of discourses are profound
Take care not to nurture sharp focus
And egotistically cause distress
Allow the thoughts to wander
Carrying their heartfelt narratives
Keep yourself rooted in eternal mantra
A source to be rejuvenated
Branch out from the core
Portray the real faces and feelings
You are incapable and incomplete
Until you are in a upright position
Meditating in cross-legged posture
Go further, the world within is eager
To listen to the Zen philosophies
Accept knowledge without Ego
Settle the inner dilemma
And differentiate-
Between success and failure
Discrimination by insecure souls
Focus on the Self
Grow with eternity
Not only in ‘being’ but as true human ‘being’
A soul with natural face of Zen©

Shelia, I am now short of words. 🙂 We are all Light and have the ability to communicate with souls. In a way we are all connected, the Universe’s will you can say. Here we are talking to each other and I am reading this beautiful compliment from you. My support you have always. Keep penning down your thoughts. 🙂 All I can say, let me bless you and really wish that you get what you seek. A soul’s calling never goes unheard. ❤️

Thank you so much, Kim. With winter outside, the world within will be warm with reverberating mantras from meditative practice. Nurturing the heart and soul before Spring arrives. 🙂
