Self Love

Self-Love Poem: An Alternative to just sleeping in the second half of the night is reaching enlightenment. Many can get up for an early flight but few do for God’s sight. You can break through the lower planes if you just concentrate. You can go to the Buddhist Society and get the Suzuki manual. You can go to the Center for Stillness or not doing anything and quietly sit there - you do not have to bring a thing. The late afternoon is another time in which you can reconnect to the sublime especially in winter. There are various kinds of bliss some truly great and others not. The primary and essential bliss is from meditation daily without which it is hard to exist. You can enjoy runners bliss after like two hours playing tennis, that is like athletes. You can get a good buzz from playing the piano but for that you might need Beethoven. You can achieve quietude with just a good book. With concentrated Simran you can cut through your thick skull. The third eye is very important it should not be given less maintenance than the car. You do not have to be a jarhead if you sit for a long time. It is very enjoyable to be an advanced monk. As the worse in the lot I have to say Simran very loud. I am still very proud and have a block in my head. I can’t break through the cloud. They do not have retreats long enough for me so I have to contemplate everyday of my life. It can be a disaster if you do not practice leaving. You can be an average Joe provided you first replicate Buddha. I have to meditate in the morning, afternoon and evening because I need more days and must turn one into three that is my trinity. You can’t just stick your foot in the pool you have to be All-In if you want your face to shine with MoonShine. That is why you have to practice all the time. You can just feed your Soul and relieve your brain. Your being that is eternal is a given. Just a few berries and beans can fulfill my dreams. Life does not have to be mean. You can execute self love as the greatest medicine. A Poem by David Smith January 15, 2020
