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.

In utero
December 29, 2018 at 7:18pm
In utero Conceived in the darkness of matter, The spirit and body are one, They grow in the womb together, awaiting their birth to the light. Born in the twilight to matter, They grow in the womb of the world; The body aging by decades, The spirit developing wings. Composed of both matter and spirit, The entity seeks to know God; Seeks to mature in the process, Seeks to develop its soul. Freewill gives the entity choices, Its destiny to amend; By obeying or disobeying G... [Read more]
Feast of Sultan (Sovereignty)

Feast of Sultan The footsteps of 'Abdu'l-BAha echo down the corridors of time, while his words reverberate through through our souls as we sip-- from the chalice of sovereignty-- the call to peace and unity. Sultan Meditation O Lord, The cup of Your sovereignty, Overflows with the wine of Your covenant. O Lord, The chalice of Your authority, Overflows with the wine of Your love.
