Born to Write
an unquenchable thirst
is insistently nagging at me
day and night, to joyfully spell
Life
I was born a wordsmith
Poet maybe
During this 2020 year
I want to contemplate, reflect upon and narrate
some anecdotes of moments and events in this lifetime
that have made me
WHO I AM
Some of these moments
are totally providential
Sublime, Magical
Transcendent…
Kairos moments in the unbroken fabric of time
However, when I in a committed and disciplined way
sit myself to write,
other things
rather than simple anecdotes of quotidian life,
write themselves,
like for example, somewhat imposing lyrical essays
on the unfathomable mysteries of sound frequencies,
languages, mantra chants,
seed syllables and letters seen as
versatile quantum packages
that enable us humans to express
Life,
good reflections I enjoy writing!
Writing for me is a lofty art
a higher iteration from speech
that demands much more conscious thought
these essays are presently satisfying me
leaving behind a radiant glow
that is unblocking my soul
preparing it perhaps for a simpler
more authentic, immediate and unpretentious contemplation
of the meaning of my personal life
These lofty essays reside at a certain frequency
which I am now consciously able to enter, and yes, they express things I have learned
Because they are part and parcel of this call to write
I honor them
However, I am still hoping this call I so strongly feel
will soon take me in the direction of a serious contemplation
of my entire present lifetime
this time around!
I hold a deep conviction as to how
precious our human lives are
Through sincere contemplation
on the individual meaning
of my own life
this time around
I wish to render due tribute
to the Divine
It is my personal way
to honor Life
When I was 27 years old
I took a forty day
Mystery School training
the ARICA SCHOOL,
founded by the great
South American philosopher,
Oscar Ichazo
from that training a sentence
was forever indelibly etched
in my soul:
“The Purpose of Life is to integrate
the Past into Wisdom”
this sentence calls me to contemplate,
express and distill my life
Modern Psychology agrees
with the view that
the measure of a person’s mental health
is linked to the sense we make
out of our individual lives.
Near death experiencers speak of
great transcendent learnings
accrued during the
“Life Review”
Our human lives are a Divine gift
to be appreciated, contemplated
fully apprehended!
I intend to follow this year
a sincere commitment
to narrate some of the many
transcendent experiences
of this lifetime
I accept my soul’s wish
to continue pondering
language,
the human gift
that enables us to express life.
