THE VOICE OF THE HEART

From deep in the depths a quiet voice speaks
suggesting we no longer roam
but move back to that place where all's still and calm
in the heart of the One that is home

Walk into your heart where you'll find all is love
'tis the altar of one's sacred space
so holy this place that to live there's divine
so it's worthy to come in and embrace

And be still and listen to this voice of the heart
for this voice is the One so Supreme
and has dwelt there within this home so divine
and has guided us home to our dream

That we're all we are 'cos we are all there is
a micro of all that is macro
abundant in love and in peace and in joy
which removes us forever from lack tho'

There's ever so much more than we've ever known
as we listen to this voice deep inside
this voice of the heart now henceforth does speak out
as the witness of truth there abides

We're now a heart master and enjoying the day
that's eternally One and complete
with love that's so great and n'er for has been lived
as we sit on life's divine holy seat

"Believe nothing because a wise person said it. Believe nothing because a belief is generally held. Believe nothing  because it is said in ancient books. Believe nothing because it is said to be of divine origin. Believe nothing because someone else believes it. Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true. "

"Love is the capacity to take care, to protect, to nourish. If you are not capable of generating that kind of energy toward yourself- if you are not capable of taking care of yourself, of nourishing yourself, of protecting yourself- it is very difficult to take care of another person. In the Buddhist teaching, it's clear that to love oneself is the foundation of the love of other people. Love is a practice. Love is truely a practice."

- Thich Nhat Hanh

"To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to night.To know the pain of too much tenderness.  To be wounded by your own understanding of love; and to bleed willingly and joyfully."

"One compassionate word, action, or thought can reduce another person's suffering, and bring him joy.   One word can give comfort and confidence, destroy doubt, help someone avoid a mistake, reconcile a conflict, or open the door to liberation.  One action can save a person's life or help him take advantage of a rare opportunity.  One thought can do the same, because thoughts always lead to words and actions.  Within compassion in our heart, every thought, word and deed can bring about a miracle."  - Thich Nhat Hanh
