One who cannot love oneself
And has no compassion for oneself
Has it hard to love another
Has it hard to find inner-peace
When veiled by self hatred
Pain flows onto other
From a withered well, lacking a drop
Cannot flow water nursing all
Loving kindness expecting from another
Is a hunger and will never be satisfied
Trying loving kindness by pain
is difficult, causing desperation
Care for own pain as a sick friend
warmly medicine, it spreads
Nurture loving kindness from inside
gradually embrace all in love
Blessing medicine for own heart...
Peace, love is what you are
Gentle and kind for oneself
Not expecting love from out
Peace, love, If we seek it out
How can we ever be love?
Light is not only lightening itself
but without this light, darkness is pain.
Love yourself and you love others
As a light from within, shining out.
Medicine for own heart.
Re: Medicine for own heart.
Enjoyed it very much
Thus shall ye think of all this fleeting world:
A star at dawn, a bubble in a stream;
A flash of lightning in a summer cloud,
A flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream.
Re: Medicine for own heart.
Thanks Jesse.
Do not love conditioned by praise
Is same as conditioned by blame
Do not seek it in whatever words
Unconditioned love is not there
Buddhahood primordial goodness
Blessing for own wounded heart
Inviting you into natural reality
No other than primordial goodness
The victim of your own mind
Is you, do not accept that
The drug of confusion, so dearly
Is injuring your very heart
Do not slay the harmful ones
You only will harm yourself
Love them therefore even more
The healing for own injuries
See their good qualities
Aware for own negativity
Excluding anyone in your heart
Is excluding own very liberation
Embrace all and so yourself
Then nobody remains to slay.
Love, you /all are goodness
Chenrezigs' impartial care.

Re: Medicine for own heart.
You have not lost heart,
For there is nothing lost
The scars are fleeting karmic
Allow the healing, no harm
Wind blows in your open heart
Cleaning from collected dust
Look around now how bright
Amazing is your own light
It is there for all and you
Everyone's pain and yours
Going like the dark night
In the rays of the morning sun.
No one has awaken the sun
That's why it shines for all
During the dark nights
be a lamp onto yourself
Aware keep looking around
Chenrezig has many eyes
Thank you for your love,
An all including blessing.

Re: Medicine for own heart.
For you dear blessing heart
There is no bad nor good
It is own very grasping
the cause of all craziness
The division samsara-nirvana
Own created dependances
The limits of my human mind
Ah! Why erasing what not is?
From moon how are they looking?
Please make a picture, I beg
How is the cinema in my head
Are images sharp from moon?
Your love, cleaning brightness
Stored spots in so many lives
Born by own grasping only
They are but own fantasies
You penetrate illusive truths
So dearly rights for me
Shadows here all around
Absorbed in your brightness
Showing the Goodness of all
Then no bad nor good is seen
There is that very Goodness
All expressions of your Love

Hello my dear enemies
you are so wonderful
Teaching me what you are;
Forms of my untamed mind
My artwork of aggression
Frustration and greed;
Colours which make you
My mind rushing behind
Ha, what a performance
What an artwork of mind
While showing then beauty
the beauty what you are;
Amazing bright peace
Free play in my heart
Creation is not in artwork
But the artist belongings
So are all kind enemies,
Creations of own confusion
Thank you for all, my love
Your kindness is immense.
For teaching this I can start
Very happily cleaning inside
I bow to you beloved ones
The light of my very heart.

Re: Medicine for own heart.
thank u Muni, beautiful truths. But not as beautiful as the artist to whom they belong. Love, T X
in any matters of importance. dont rely on me. i may not know what i am talking about. take what i say as mere speculation. i am not ordained. nor do i have a formal training. i do believe though that if i am wrong on any point. there are those on this site who i hope will quickly point out my mistakes.
Re: Medicine for own heart.
beautiful, healing poems. thank you.
