Presence

Presence/…………. Sami Khalil

I’m presently present,

In the now!

In all essence,

emptiness.

Outwardly, witness 

Sign posts of

Manifestations

Revealed!

Glorious and holy

In all things.

Pervading beings to be

To live peacefully in

Stillness,

Peaceably through

Conscience;

The stream of space-time.

Oneness attached to

Nothingness

To no egoism or

Merely portals

Of separateness.

Realize my blissfulness,

My servants.

IAM The Great Spirit, Light Being!

'Presence'
Sami Khalil,
This was introspection and the question of what, who, why, when, where all rolled into one. I have always wondered about dream for instance. Even in sleep we are conscious and living within our night visions. Another thing interesting is the memories we carry of what was once as real as today. Well done! Humanity is complex and only a great God can be the creator of all.

do we all just think our existence, or do we really exist....what if we are all on some plane...and we are all just a projection of thoughts of minds.
deep poetry, Sami...allows us to cast our surmises into a pond of possibility...

Reality comprises of the seen and the unseen worlds, the physical and the spiritual in oneness and unity. Our thinking is receiving of information, analyzing and making sense of this reality based on the five or six senses we possess. We don't see the unseen world and emptiness but everything or all manifestation were generated from there. Everything has to have that void or empty space in between as you know. According to the Sufis, there is a universe within us. Very good questions great poet and I'm glad you asked, and I thank you for all.

Introspective and philosophical, your words cast a calm on the reader. Sami, this one should be read while burning incense and listening to sitar music! Loved it. Lydi**

Have a great New Year.

this truly is peace, tranquility, and the essence of spirituality - one in being with the self. i imagine this to open the door to the presence & knowledge of the almighty - putting self aside. very open, contemplative and cathartic. very skillfully painted (both words and image) ...

[Sami Khalil]

All true and well spoken. Thank you so much Pete for taking the time and effort. Happy New Year.

realizing your spiritual self or the ataman, It is a state of blissfulness! The portrait of Buddha with his back to the world ..speaks volumes!

[Sami Khalil]

Wow! Thank you so much beloved poet and friend for this amazing review and kindness. Be blessed.

Your words brought this to mind: “There is no effort that we can make to still ourselves. True stillness comes naturally from moments of solitude where we allow our minds to settle. Just as water seeks its own level, the mind will gravitate toward the holy. Muddy water will become clear if allowed to stand undisturbed, and so too will the mind become clear if it is allowed to be still.”

[Sami Khalil]

Wow! You are amazing. You speak truth in action that seek to fulfill itself naturally. Thank you so much for all.
Please send some new requests when you post. Like to read and enjoy.

I can’t take ownership of those words, they come as a result of reading the Tao Te Ching

Your enthusiastic explanation here sums up my life goal for the last ten years or so, especially since moving to the solitude of the boondocks to embark on a healing journey. So much noise coming at people from a million avenues of media, plus all the noise inside everyone's heads, I find that I do better surrounded by nature & dogs . . . much more peaceful & in the moment *smile* (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

[Sami Khalil]

That is wonderful and a worthy endeavor. The quest for being is going back to the non-being, from fullness to emptiness and from noise to serenity. Thank you so much for all you say and do. Paths diverge into oneness when we find our net neutrality so to speak.

Emptiness.
We feed our material body with material food.
What do we feed to the non matter that is the real us is the question. Or perhaps, we do not realky know what we really are that we do not know what to feed our real us, and so we feel that emptiness endlessly...

i am delighted to be here, reading you again my friend. ❤

[Sami Khalil]

We don't feed anything that needs nothing. The spirit in us needs to be connected back to The Source of all. To awaken all its God-given potential. Material things need sustenance and care. The spirit needs new birth so to speak. Die before you die is preached by many faiths. Thank you so much beloved poet and friend for all. Glad to see you.

"In all essence, emptiness!"

ohhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ;) will we ever understand?! ;}
if one remains too long in the "empty" state ..does our body simply fade away??
some deep thoughts ..early in the morning ...very substantial words to gnaw on ;))

[Sami Khalil]

The ego will fade away and all others will come into focus as one with The One. Thank you so much dear poet and friend for this lovely review and visit.

[Einstein Noodle]
