Beauty in the horizon

What is this I see:

Great wings of golden-sun star-dust
Stretch-sketched, mountain-moulded
Pinned in the heavens horizon
Sky high it will fly.
Beauty stretched,
Staring at me.
Me: humbly-stumbling
Head-bowed
Heart-throbbed
Tongue-tied
Eyes transfixed upon the peacock of creation.
Smiling at the wonder of the sky.
The artist's life-hand ;
New works, brushed onto his canvas.
Ah! The ocean-ink of creation never ceases to marvel,
Its splashed and intwined with every single life-breath.
Soon, I too will sketch my life canvas for you to see,
It will twinkle in the stars skies.
The tree of life, pervading all atom-space,
Bearing the fruits of my actions
To be plucked by you.
The aroma of heavenly-musk, divine!
The desert of existence: sands of time
My actions echoing in the mist of eternity
My words rippling the river of potential infinity.
Me: the pebble, the river and the Ocean
When can I unite with the Mother-sea
Now:
Where do I go?
How
do I flow?
What
can I say and see?
What pity words shall I use?
I know no ocean of words can do justice.
Now
You tell me!

AWAKENING

One may wonder and ask at some point in their life some simple questions.
These questions may be instigated by some events occuring in one's life. It is man's natural inclination to become inquisitive about the world and reality enveloping him. It is through objectively enquiring and reflecting upon what Man senses does he truly arise above the material forms.

The idea follows that then through rational enquiry does man reach truth. But; the question arises as to the precise location of truth itself whether it is a singular entity or an idea in the mist of time and echoes of eternity.

Truth undoubtedly could be potentialy anywhere and everywhere; given that the perceiver extends his perception and understands the purpose and function of an entity within time and space. This extension of perception should lead to realisation being knowledge or 'illumination' since one becomes aware; just the Sun sheds light on an entity, it can become known, similarily; the power of consciousness can act as a light to the faculty of the senses. So one way of acessing truth can be through consciousness one can potentialy arrive at the stage of illumination.

This then suggests that whether truth is material or non material. As mentioned prior, the exact location of truth could potentialy be anywehere and everywhere since the fact is that everything is a thing and is an entity which has an objective purpose for its existence as it has been caused by an ultimate uncaused causer to be caused to exist in simulatenous time.

Therefore all that exists, has a mission to exist untill that thing is changed in form. The essence is eternal as it is intangible but knowable. The essence is the truth about an entity, it can be eternal as it is not in time and space but in the minds of men as knowledge.

Man seeks to pass on knowledge and inner most feelings and ideas since the time of caveman through ingraining onto cave walls to scrolls of papyros to even barks of wood. This too is another natural inner human inclination to become eternal by leaving something for the masses to contemplate over and to connect with.

Khalil Gibran has eloquently said 'I am deaf and you are blind, so let us touch hands and understand' reinforcing the notion that one of Man's universal objective is to arrive to truth and illumination through awareness by connecting with other human beings inner most feelings. It also highlights the truth that through consensus and dialogue one can exchange feeling to understand reality through the collecitive sensation.

Rumi gives the allegory of the elephant in the dark room with different individuals touching a different part of the animal's body and claiming that they have touched anything but the elephant itself due to their ignorance as they are in an area with lack of light. This then begs the question as to whether the tools and means of reaching truth is in a particular place or in a particular time.

In addition 'Words are timeless. You should utter them or write them with a knowledge of their timelessness'. This carefully entails that our words do indeed echo in eternity, similarily our actions and motives carve the future of tomorow and the history to pass.

The question now one has to ask is what is the best tool to arrive at truth, in order to awaken?
