in the quiet contemplation of the
statement from the tao
leaving all that is temptation
transformation in the now
daily reading from the page's truth
a voice within shall speak
lead me gently to a higher view
release what makes me weak
(canvas text)
Blog about the piece:
The silent moments, the open space
The fragile nothingness, the empty space
Our minds reach for some fulfillment in the material ways
But it is in the soft emptiness that we find ourselves
That we find light
That we recognize divinity
It is with eyes closed and sitting lotus
In the contemplative inner excursion
The silent knowing, the natural being
That brings us an awakening
We are here in this space, in this moment, on this earth
And nowhere at the same time
We exist only in this way
Until we realize that we exist completely everywhere
How do we name that
How do we give words to such a feeling
Such an experience
Such a full-emptiness
We can not
So we say... go and live it
Touch its roots and climb its branches
Until you can rest and be cradled by the void
Reach up and hang from surrender
And leave uncertainty behind
