Prayer to the Light

The Light of the Divine
shines 
on me, in me,
through me, 
around me, 
as me.
Because of this Light,
we Live.

This world seems at times to have such a surplus of those that desire change, yet using one’s gifts in order to effect this requires much love, effort, and persistence. Your efforts and beauty do not go unrecognized or unappreciated.

Thank you again, sister, for your commitment to making the world more beautiful and easier to bear.

ah the light
the all pervasive light
the luminous, radiant glow
that is our true being..

I have noticed that too Bushukshi. It's rare to find the walk that matches the talk.

Long before I was conscious of the why, I have always had an inner imperative to access and express the passion, mystery, and love of the universe through communication, through dance, through beingness.

Having experienced a conscious awakening of where we are at as a species, as well as the energies of this unique planetary and cosmic moment, that directive has become a surging inner fire, burning out of me all distraction/attention towards the mundane, illusory aspects of what is presented to us as 'life'.

I truly appreciate your appreciation. It has been my experience that the world isn't really interested. As painful as that has been, it has never stopped me from continuing, because the core of my being would never ever let me.

I know well the feeling of being weary with - of having to bear the world. To make it easier for a fellow seeker makes my heart glad.

In solidarity,
Erin

Hello dear:

Nice prayer.

I usually ask for the Light to surround me and fill me and also at the same time I ask for the health giving, healing, and strength giving energies of the Earth needed for my human body.

Take care,
Mike

in every way
forevers tide
long compassion
weaving high
sun and water
a livened spark
of motions center
rolls through heart
an ark of rainbow
in seat of wonder
of essential truths
travel up from under
in summer braids
divine is life
where freedom calls
the candle lights

..peace..

the Light of heaven and the grounding of Earth - a beneficial balancing of energies.

Hello Vivek!

Welcome...
I am so glad you enjoyed it.

Yes, the interplay of light and shadows - an ongoing dynamic that we experience as we reach for the light of spirit and the light within, while dealing with the challenges of being in a body in this realm.

Onward and upward...

Erin Parsley said...

Yes neil, I would say that heaven is absolutely a state of being, a state that arises from our within connecting to the Light that is all around us, but obscured through the density of life experience.

Good thing we have each other as gathered here to point ourselves in the right direction. :)
