How to Listen to the Master

First of all,
give up everything you know
about listening –
it has nothing to do with your ears.
That kind of listening
will only take you so far.
If you really want to hear,
you will need to leave your ears at the door
and while you’re at it, your head.
Then, take a seat,
breathe deep,
let go
and become
a flower
opening to the sun.

Excerpted from The Heart of the Matter

Speechless

It’s not what I say,
it’s what I don’t say.
But every time I say nothing,
what I don’t say
leaves so much to be said,
I am speechless.
Maybe that’s why Groucho
raised his eyebrows
and Jesus raised the dead.

MY WAY

Going my own way, will lead to success;
I don’t have to wear fancy clothes, I don’t have to wear a dress:

Inside me is my direction to follow;
I stand on my own two feet, my pride, I don’t need to swallow:

The things that work for me, might Not work for you;
But probably you’ll find your own path, does that give you a clue?

I am not your leader, and not your master for sure;
But I have met The Man, who can reveal, your Most Perfect Cure!
