PLEASURE & LIBERATION :::
yes, you can have both.
from my teacher: Psalm Isadora :
"... We learn our dharma, our law, our place in the Wheel of Life. Once we come to know and surrender to our dharma, we can turn the wheel of life instead of trying to turn against it..."
and how exhausting is to continuously feel we are swimming upstream against Mother Ocean's current: she will always outswim us. the struggle against ourSelves, avoidance of ourSelves, is an avoidance of our inner voice is Our own struggle against the current.
water flows, Mother Ocean's river's which flow easily and deeply into Her waters (which covers 71% of the Earth's surface...) represent that flow... it's a flow into her own depths . To know our dharma (our path) we must allow ourSelves to flow more deeply INTO ourselves.... how deep do you allow yourself to go? to grow? GO IN ... that's where the medicine is... INSIDE OF US...
This came to me recently during meditation, I chose to come out immediately to transcribe it:

yes deeper...where the ocean gets wetter is where we dive deeper
ReplyDeletedelve into your self with eager fingers
pleasure is liberation
emerge and gasp
and try to grasp
the mysterious mind fuck connection
of everything
take your
nimble
eyelash fingertips
in butterfly teacup sips
where the rabbit hole ends you'll never know
just stop asking
and jump in
to where the ocean gets wetter
if i am drowning in the ocean, i am also beside myself on the shore
i am the boat, i am the ocean, i am the oar
i am not afraid anymore
-psalm
AHHHH PSALM JI!! I LOVE YOU!!....and why is this the first time i've heard this poem?!!
