“We Believe” #9/1/2012

“We Believe”  #Revised

“Nārāyana Guru (1856–1928), the prolific poet, philosopher, and social reformer is believed to have attained enlightenment (i.e., an absolute state of wisdom) after his several years of education in languages, the scriptures of the different religions, yoga, and experiences with ascetic life, culminating in his long and meditative recluse in Maruthwamala hills in South India. Nārāyana Guru’s philosophical masterpiece “Atmopadeśa Śatakam” (100 verses of self-instruction) is primarily the Guru’s poetic expression of his philosophy of universal love, emanating from his experienced state of primordial knowledge of the Universe, and his consequent ability to view the human race as one of a species, in unqualified equality and without any racial, religious, caste, or other discriminations whatsoever.” In Hebrew, Ahava is the most commonly used term for both interpersonal love and love of God.

To love is to live
Love forgives,
 even in the ugliest "storms".
Rain pours,
but four letters provide,
a never-ending "umbrella".
Yellow and Orange images,
are visible in the midst of a "rainbow".
I reach for you…

"We Believe”

As we stretch open arms,
the "clouds" cry no more.
Smiles make themselves visible from the "Heavens".
A pot of gold sparkled,
 as laughter echoed the "blue skies"
Our pledge is eternal…we glow in elation

"We Believe”

Chains of passion,
 transcend doubt into reality.
With me,
you are protected by the armor of "King Authur".
The round table,
is covered with "pillows".
To harm you is to challenge my love,
to the death I fight.

“We Believe”

To love is to live,
so I pray for many moons.
In my arms you sleep quietly.
I look at your facial structure…"My Nefertiti"
As the sheep slowly battle each eye-blink,
I hope we sink in a Titanic of “Ahava”

"We Believe”

The End
