A Simple Open Heart
Please be patient while audio loads
A simple open heart: the naked child is free!
Wisdom flows everywhere, and is effortlessly busy.
The busyness of Wisdom
is a perfect harmony of peace.
An open heart flowing in God’s wisdom
rests in effortless effort.
One thing is necessary, to open our hearts.
Let God flow through.
Let God Love our bodies, our minds, our souls.
God loves what God makes.
The body is good:
Its opening is liberation.
Let God love your mind—the miracle of thought.
Let God love your deep soul, and weave His dreams
into the fabric of your being.
Let God make your emotions warm
as sunlight with His Love.
Let God love your voice into a milky voice:
voice of poetry, voice of growing things,
voice of the sea.
Let God love your alienated ego, and bring it home.
Let every shadow of grief bring its weeping
into the council of the Heart.
Comfort the grieving one with Love.
Bath the grieving one with Spirit.
Parent the dark child with Light.
Only Love dissolves darkness into Love.
