Cosmic
Breath
I
swirl my seven chakras one by one
-
- each
expands more with practice -
- first,
within the room
- then
outside the confines of the
building,
- outside
the edges of the town, into
forest and fields,
- beyond
the coastline of England,
- then
beyond the curve of the earth
- and
on beyond the
universe
I find outside the universe
- a
space that knows everything
- that
holds the memory of everything
- past
present future -
- where
time is fluid
- &
there are no opposites or
boundaries or contradictions;
- just
a whole - that feels deep &
peaceful.
And in that cradling
- there
is emptiness and darkness and yet
- there
is immense energy and light -
- I
feel it flowing into me,
- it
re-aligns my spine,
- takes
away tensions and negativity,
- takes
away futile struggles and
physical pain -
- and
gives me healing and love and
answers instead.
I trust it to tell me what I
need,
- I
am open to receive,
- I
am grateful for its umbilical
suck and pull,
- like
the shedding and renewal of our
cells,
- and
I am filled with laughter
- at
the backwards vision of how
foolish one can be.
- I
am joyful and prancing free
- now
that I can see.
I know that this space is within
us all,
- folding,
enfolding -
- we
can go there anytime we wish -
- drop
old baggage and pick up new
skills,
- discover
meanings of colours & dreams
& plants & fruits,
- speak
& move with human &
animal guides,
- balance
masculine and feminine sides,
- evolve
to become higher selves,
- then
turn to teach and heal each other
- by
channeling the love and the
light.
And I can feel the outside edges
of our universe
- lapping
into this space -
- lapping
like drops of fire
- or
molten metal,
- lapping
like water,
- lapping
like wind in the trees,
- lapping
like the earth itself laps from
rock to sand
- and
back again to rock.
And I can feel this space seeping
back
- into
the universe
- through
the swirling center
- which
is deep within every one of us
- so
that we are part of its
evolution.
- The
more we connect with this energy
- the
easier we make it for the next
person to do so
- because
we are forming a habit
- that
is recorded in the space that
knows.
- Round
& round & in & out
the singing transformation goes,
- like
a bunch of figure of eights
interconnected in the middle.
If we want to build places of
worship
- they
should be circular -
- or
else use a hilltop
- or
the shores of a lake
- or
a clearing in a grove of trees -
- (dont
forget that the trees will want
to speak too,
- and
the stones and the sky,
- and
the dancing flowers and weaving
water)
- there
needs to be space for all!
There we can come together
- and
here and anywhere and everywhere
- we
can come together and open
ourselves up
- and
join in the process of creation
or re-creation
- by
connecting with the grace and the
power
- all
around and at the core,
- by
letting go of the old and
bringing into form
- the
true new vision & purpose of
our souls,
- and
by bringing back our gifts to the
hungering world.
