Sometimes meditation brings total connection with all things
Just as peace comes to mind
So love resides in the heart.
Just as calm meets the soul
So time diminishes.
Then grace fills the being
And the heart opens
Like a flower.
These are the moments
Of meeting with everything
Touching every sound
Hearing all colours
Drinking the music of forests
Hearing the song of the ocean,
The chattering of birds and beasts
An instant of love,
Connection,
Harmony,
And Joy.
To believe or not to believe… That’s the real question. Here’s ‘A Prayer in Honour of Eternity’. It is also to be found on my websites – Prayers for Everyone and Funeral Readings
Some say:
‘This is the end’
And think
‘I am coming to the end’
But there is no end
For eternity
Is in the soul…
It is in the mind
The bones
The body
The heart
Others say
‘I know about the end’
They imagine
They understand
Nothing
I only know
That any belief in the end
Is an idea
A passing thought
Without beginning
Or end
For eternity
Is in the soul…
It is in the mind
The spirit
Music
Laughter
And because I see and feel
And hear and taste
And sometimes remember
And sometimes do not remember
I welcome mystery
For I am eternal
And I know eternity
I have met eternity
I am without end
