The Oceans of the body
Goodnight (3:30 am),
Why is goodnight said before going to sleep?
What's the use of saying it, if we are going to sleep?
Once asleep we won't know if its good or bad,
Awakening in the morning, if we are feeling refreshed,
Has it been a goodnight or is it good morning?
Currently: (2nd time in life) As I sit to write and few minutes back on the bed, mosquito buzzing around but not biting. Now gone. Messengers of the Universe
Attachment: Windows startup lock screens, have these wonderful photos. I think they are synced and downloaded from a server every so often. They are hidden deep within User Data (finding it was a pain). Always wondering how and when they change. During the mornings, it happens, the same image comes for at least a week every time computer is restarted or coming back from sleep mode. If there is AI or some algorithm behind it, really grateful for it this time. As I switched on the computer, with energy more or less at the heart, touched by this image. Instantly reminded of 'Happy Feet' & 'March of the Penguins'. This is Sangha. While the civilization along the water front (where the hunting grounds, food and sex are) is hustling, bustling, squeezing, fighting, these adventurous souls are climbing a mountain in search. No desperation.
Why writing at this ungodly, but earthy hour?
Contemplation of what Desire is. Desire : De-Sire/De-Seer (Sire/Father of old English or Seer as one who sees)
It was not aware of its watching, for it was asleep
Why it got up is now not clear, maybe to add to the Ocean
On getting up, it looked to the phone for time, and saw a missed call
The call was at a decent hour, but it had fallen asleep
Fallen asleep, after a really really deep sitting of a complete hour after many many months
Looking at the screen, there was a realization that well something was pulling up
So simply Let Go and turned off the fan
Went back to bed, but how and why
Lay flat on the back with arms gently on the side
There is natural Mindfulness, the Seer, is well just seeing in equanimity
It is just experiencing and watching, there is no verbalizing
Yet what is now written, has already passed and gone
Its also not what, that which was actually passing
No way to share that, yet here we go
The Oceans are rising and falling turn by turn
Once the abdomen and then the chest
Turn by turn, in perfect rhythm
Like a sensual dance, between intimate lovers
The Yin and Yang, tides on the Earth
Water pulled from here and sent over there
Then back again from where it began
But why the movement in the first place
It's as if an asteroid fell through space
Or maybe something had pulled the waters up
Whatever the cause, writing all of this down
Has caused a flooding, somewhere on land
It is just experiencing and watching, there is no verbalizing
Yet soon de-scribing starts,
Once de-scribing starts, well scribing ends
That which is being scribed on the bodies scroll
Begins to fade, changes because it senses it is being watched
Realization of this change, causes a shift
The watcher and talker, have a slight tiff
Ssshhh, be quiet, you are frightening it away
Oh I know, I know, I'll try to be slow
Hmmm, its seems to be returning to its original state
No not fully, its flattened out now
Now longer One Ocean, alternately rising and falling
Its like the sea, seen from a single shore
Either High or either Low
The waves have subsided, the winds have stopped blowing
Everything calm or maybe just dead
Watching and talking don't go hand in hand
Its changes itself, when you take its name
You mean I caused it, just because I wanted to share
The de-sire / de-seer to tell someone else
When de-seer grows, the seeing stops
When de-sire grows, one pulls from the trillions of families inside
Pulls their sires/fathers, towards the talking self
The talking needs energy, there must be men/mann who build thoughts and talk
It leaves the families orphaned, widowed and raw
They are all confused, sad and depressed
The dancing has stopped, its naturally lost
Next time if forced, they will perform and show!
Oh Why must you talk, about that which can be seen by all
Don't ask me why?
Sleeping I will now try!
