SEEING BACKWARDS:

what is Wisdom ALMOST Comprehending Emptiness?

October 2004

 

 

 

Ask and it shall be given.

Seek and you shall find.

Knock

and the door shall be opened IN-to you.

 

Here I sit,

seeing backwards.

 

Corporeeal Existence

encapsulating experience

into round spheres of lucidity.

 

Luminous.

 

Here I sit,

seeing backwards.

 

Tempting the here and now

of Existence

into One More Encounter

of the sweetest kind.

 

Here I sit,

seeing backwards.

 

Trouble yourself not

over appearance,

as once seen clearly,

all becomes transparent

as a rich tapestry of woven threads.

 

A compelling pattern ever changing,

transforming...

of colors

shapes

and movement.

 

Here I sit,

seeing backwards.

 

Squint a bit

and you may see

IT,

too.

Or relax yourself

to the point where all blends

into one scene.

 

Here I sit,

seeing backwards.

 

A golden radiance,

softly rolling from this to that.

Or that to this.

Oops.

And then you have slipped

into this one-is-that.

 

Wisdom comprehending emptiness?

Well,

some say

that takes one even deeper Into-IT,

 

 

You're Gone,

yet Fully Here.

Oh dear.

 

Here

I sit,

seeing backwards.

 

(How to remember

IT

when you weren’t really there?

 

And yet somehow

you knew.

IT

has cleansed you.)

 

 

Never heard anyone

suggest

Emptiness comprehending Wisdom:

Seeing backwards,

I guessed.

.

 

The Bliss of Wisdom

needs to comprehend,

to realize,

while existing within IT...

Emptiness...

 

I guess.

(Am I a mess?)

 

IT is simultaneous.

 

Union.

Yoga.

Heartstrings strumming,

yin-yang becoming

Lotus.
