My Search

I

Into the mystic realm,
I let my mind take flight,
Over stone strewn highways,
I search the endless night.

I was the Wanderer,
Looking for a goal,
And the Seeker,
Searching for my soul.

I walked the roads of idle fancy,
Paths of material delight,
Stumbling over stones of vain imaginings,
In my search for the light.

A voice deep within me cried:
"Here doesn't lay your goal,
Upon these darkened pathways,
You'll never find your sou."

II

Into the mystic realm,
Again my mind took flight,
Over well traveled highways,
I search the misty twilight.

I was a Seeer,
Seeking an unknown goal,
And a Stranger,
To my own soul.

In this realm of half-light,
I strolled the roads of tradition,
Picking my way carefully,
Through the shadows of superstition.

Still from within came the cry:
"Not in this realm is your goal,
Upon these half-lit pathways,
You'll never find your soul"

III

Into the mystic realm,
Again I took flight,
And walked the paths,
Where God has shed His light.

I walked the hallowed highways,
Trod by the Prophets of old,
Strolled the ancient paths,
Strewn with nuggets of pure gold.

This is the wondrous realm,
Where all paths become one,
This is the glorious land,
Illuminated by God's sun.

Through the Word of God,
I have found my soul,
In the Messenger for this age,
I have found my goal.

Fast Meditation

Fast Meditation 1 O my Lord, the questions thou hast answered are my meditations! 2 O my Lord, The wine of Thy utterances flow across my parched soul quenching my thirst. 3 O my Lord, the honor of Thy Ancient Faith is my joy! 4 O my Beloved, The manna of Thy revelation descends out of the clouds of Thy Covenant sating my hunger. 5 O my Lord, the sovereignty of Thy essence is my unity! 6 O my Beloved, Obedience strengthens the soul...

Faith's Journey: A Metaphor
December 14, 2018 at 2:10pm
Faith's Journey: A Metaphor In my journey I traversed hallway without windows: Without cessation or interruption, I walked through artificially lit corridors that lead to caverns illuminated by various degrees of sunlight. In my journey I traversed corridors without windows: Around blind corners I trudged to find dead ends, secret doors, locked gates, or blocked portals. In my journey I traversed passages without windows: Through arrow slits I caught glimpses of my... [Read more]
Feast of Ilm (Knowledge)
November 18, 2021 at 8:15pm
Feast of Ilm Knowledge wrapped in scented words floats on the evening air. Expression of God's love: The Lord's Supper. Feast of Knowledge Black silhouettes against the dusk mountains rise out of the evening shadow. O Lord, the light of Thy knowledge rises behind the mountains of our ignorance. In the southwest, Venus, the evening star, glows bright. O Lord, the rustling of the leaves of Thy knowledge call us from our sepulchers. The full moon han... [Read more]
