Reikan

The seasons are changing again, as starlight rains down.
dripping tendrils of inspiration, banishing the ways we frown.

When I look into your playful eyes, I'm pulled into strange gravity.
Searching fingers stroke smooth skin, enticing sources of vitality.

Passion and freedom drive your soul, allowing wheels of insight to steadily roll.

I know your heart yearns to speak from the deep,
words about courage that won't let others sleep.

Can you glimpse the divine image within, to ignite for others the sacred name?

In fierce surrender to eternal waves, being and longing burn as one flame.

Words of the heart are nourishing rays.
Their meaning sustains your vital presence.
Secrets we explore glimmer in mystery,
nothing compares to the rhythms of your essence.

The verse will only flow when your heart is rendered bare,
tropical angels burn demanding focus in the air.

Don't get it right; just get it written,
floating in the fiery river of heaven.

It ain't gonna burst from the primal chaos,
rainbows always shine as One in seven...

 

 

The Japanese word for hands-on healing is "reiki", which literally means the divine flow of life force energy.  Another startling term comes up in their language and that's "reikan", which means divine inspiration and spiritual contemplation.  This is the next step in any spiritual path, opening to divine wisdom and being a channel for its magical flow.  First you open to the life force of the universe flowing through and from your heart, and that's reiki.  You open to the mystery of love and the invisible presence of the living flow of eternity.  After that miraculous awakening you start to have a conversation with divinity and in that conversation if you're truly present and listening then something even more miraculous occurs.  You find out that there's this wise, ancient teacher within you who is also you friend, your lover, and your creator.  But this presence does not exist separate from you for you are One with divine being.  God learns in you!  God speaks through you!  God loves through you!  You are the lens for the flowing magic of divine wisdom, creative power, and universal love.  

The poem above is about opening to the divine wisdom that lives in the forgotten corners of your heart.  You have to engage the silence...  Slow down and listen.  God is the slowest being in the whole universe.  When you're incredibly busy, you miss out on this magical relationship that defines who you are, what you are, and where you're heading in your own spiritual evolution.  Don't miss out on the most important love relationship you could ever have!  If you don't cultivate this divine love affair in your life, then in all your human relationships you come to the table of intimacy barren and empty with nothing real to offer.  When you show up with eternal being emanating from your eyes your relationships shift dramatically!  Theirs more surface area between you and whoever you are relating with.  And the experience of Reikan, divine inspiration, leads to a third state that cannot even be described in words!  You'll just have to experience it!
