I am that I am

When confronted with any conflict, be it conflict with yourself or with another, just remember you are what you are and nothing can ever change that!

If you are in a situation that endangers your peace of mind, remember that the way you react to any given situation will determine its final outcome.

You, and you alone are responsible for your life. You are the soul author of your life, and you cannot claim he or she did that to me. Doing so, just keeps you stuck in the problem. We all have a story and we all have problems. Mostly we react to any given problem by attacking it, not seeing that we are one with all and not understanding that each situation harbours in it a huge potential for growth and enlightenment.

No one does anything to you nor can anyone hurt you unless you give them the power to do so. No situation is ever hopeless. No problem is unsolvable. Everyone is doing the best with the wisdom and knowledge they have at the time, just as you are, if they had known better they probably would not have acted in such a way.

Each problem is a gift, that you can rise triumphantly above, setting yourself and the other free from guilt and fear and sin as you do so. Do not give your power away to anything or anyone.

Most people dont understand that what they do to each other, they invariably do to themselves. This is the direct cause for all problems and conflict, the idea of separation. All thought will return to its source, and because we see ourselves separated from everyone else, its easy to blame another for our misfortune, yet this only drives us deeper into misery. Knowing that you are who you are at all times, knowing that no matter what happens outside you, it will never ever change who you are!

I am a lonesome traveller
a creature of the miles
i have made my way in solitude
in my own ragged style.

I have chased the secrets across the earth
the mountains and the seas
i have fallen and i have gotten up
stumbling into ecsatcy.

I climbed the tower made of light
to see what heaven sees
where the angels in their flight
stopped a while and spoke to me.

Aquainted with the underworld
it was there, after i fell
i rode upon the devils back
through all the provinces of hell.

The worlds I have seen
and kingdoms green
all rise and fall
inside a dream.

I sat in council with the sun
upon the shores of time
drinking in the poetry
he poured out like golden wine.

But dont let my rhymes trouble you
take comfort in your days
i ll soon be passing like the wind
and you ll forget all that i say.

The ages turn
we cry to learn
the divine flame
inside us burns.

When Buddha was a traveller
with just a begging bowl
no one could ever beg or steal
what he had discovered in his soul!

The wheel turns
we die to learn
the divine flame
inside us burns.
