The first step is not to

Poem:

The first step in writing a mystic poem Is not to. There is no obligation. The first step is to regain your composure. To not be buoyant at five is abusive of God. God originally requested Mohammed to do fifty prayers a day not five. If your brain becomes a single mantra it is like resetting your ignition. You could even do Dhikr if that is you wish. You could think of your initiation and his entire mission. You could see if it finally sinks in. The length of your meditation could be set to eternity or at least until you have to go to the bathroom. I ended 2018 in deep meditation and began 2019 in the sublime. I do the same thing all the time. My spiritual Master is a highly respected Urdu Poet. In my worldly life I was annihilated which is the earthly accompaniment to the Sufi spiritual path. Everything is spent changing the terrain. Soul travel is the purpose of Life not to remain here and complain. You can meditate like a robot but do something a robot can’t. If you combine Sant Mat with Zen you can establish a proper routine. You can sit still alone on your own at home. If you bend your knees enough they become soft as jello. A Zen Master is only mean because the students are lazy. All they do is disrupt his meditation, so he has to discipline them. The bliss could be so great that you are never late. You can pull up your sensual current by doing a lot of Simran. If you exercise a lot you can strengthen your Kundalini. You can send it up into your brain. If you bend and stretch yourself a bit it will go there naturally, provided you don’t have sex. You can treat your medical conditions that you are scheduled to have five years in the future and push them back another ten. That is real medicine. My mission is to combine Christianity with Zen, Islam, Sufism, Hinduism, Santism, Kashmir Saivism, Taoism, Sikhism, Buddhism, Yoga, Tantra and Modern Science.. into a pool, to be used as a meditation tool. Your brain can not be re-calibrated while you are still thinking that is why you learn to stop. You could listen to music which is intrinsic. You could enter without desire so it becomes purely transcendental. You could schedule it first and the rest of your Life could just be a footnote. Absolute peace is like having no inflammation and is very good for the body. When just listening to music there is no need for the Ego. If you don’t eliminate your Ego the easy way then it is eventually eliminated by warfare anyways. I am a Philospher of practical matters and only interested in things that rhyme. My earthly Guru is Emily Dickinson. We agree on style - when you feel your head blown off you know it is poetry.
