Everything on this earth is an individual expression of God with its own melody. Each melody creates a unique song that is beautiful on its own. But only when all things come together in concert—the plants, animals, water, air, and land—are we able to experience the true majesty of the world.

MYSTICAL POEMS: “I have come into this world to see this” by Hafiz
I have come into this world to see this: the sword drop from men’s hands even at the height of their arc of anger because we have finally realized there is just one flesh to wound and it is the Beloved’s. I have come into this world to see this: all creatures hold hands as…
Short mystical poems by Osho: “Drop by drop”
When the heart thirsts so much for truth, for peace, for religion, One day you come face to face with the sun Which dispels all life’s darkness. Thirst! Pray! Strive! Wait! A journey of a thousand miles is covered By small step, so don’t lose heart. Vast distances can be covered one step at a…
MYSTICAL POEMS: “Inside each of us there is a poet” by Osho
Words that come out of the depth and fullness of heart Echo the infinite, just as a tiny flower expresses infinite beauty. When love breathes life into words What is expressed is not what is said, but what wants to be said. Inside each of us there is a poet, there is poetry, But because…
POEMS: “The first Peace” by Black Elk
The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness, with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells Wakan-Taka (the Great Spirit), and that this center is really everywhere, it…
POEMS: “The Work of Happiness” by May Sarton
The Work of Happiness I thought of happiness, how it is woven Out of the silence in the empty house each day And how it is not sudden and it is not given But is creation itself like the growth of a tree. No one has seen it happen, but inside the bark Another circle…
Spirituality from Daily Word: “World Peace” (Espiritualidad de la Palabra Diaria “Paz Mundial”)
World Peace I do my part to bring peace to the world. The way I live my life tells a lot about my character. Do my words express peace and love? Do my actions convey kindness and consideration? There is love in my heart for all humankind. I share this love freely regardless of…
A Zen quote from Thich Nhat Hanh on wars, and our own prejudisms…
“We often think of peace as the absence of war, that if powerful countries would reduce their weapon arsenals, we could have peace. But if we look deeply into the weapons, we see our own minds- our own prejudices, fears and ignorance. Even if we transport all the bombs to the moon, the roots of…
SPIRITUAL POEMS: “As I awake today in love” by Janine Miller-Delany
“As I awake today in love” May I remember what I am For I am spirit. May I remember where I am For I am in the mind of God. May I allow myself to awaken in this natural state. For my natural state, there is no effort at all and i so arrive…
The Healing of Our World — Ancient Skies (re-blogged)
As the wind moves ripples across the lake, I dream of days when peace lived, so I focus within my heart on the healing of our world, as the wind grows stronger I enjoy the wildness, of clouds shifting and birdsong lifting. Poetry and Image © Copyright 2020, ancient skies via The Healing of Our World…
Spirituality from Daily Word: “Imagine” (Espiritualidad de La Palabra Diaria: “Imaginar”)
Imagine I imagine only good for myself and others. Everything we see in the world began with a thought. Rev. Kelly Isola writes, “The great fullness of life is a creative journey, one that I am imagining and expressing.” How full my life can be when I utilize the imagination of my inner, spiritual awareness!…
A quote from Neale Donald Walsch on “judgment and finding peace”
Everything you see, hear, touch, taste, smell, or sense in any way is an aspect of Divinity. It is when you judge it to be something else that it shows up as something else in your life. Therefore, judge not, and neither condemn. For that which you judge, judges you; and that which you condemn will condemn…
