Pointers from the Stars
By Maren Springsteen
The only thing real
about all that I see
is All-luminous Self,
in ‘time’ hiding as ‘else.’
Pure Consciousness is simply what IS
and always already abiding as THIS.
One heavenly canvas,
refreshingly alive–
sparkling brightly as glorious Light.
When perfect peace seems somehow disturbed,
Pure Being never once is perturbed.
Don’t look at what appears to be causing pain,
no, quickly reel that shadow in again!
Prior to denial, Pure Presence immanently reigns
and whatever presence to ignorance it lends,
tumbles the instant you ask the question
and with it goes all hypnotic suggestion.
Ask: to whom do these arisings occur?
and feel the entire witness disappear–
only superimposition ever it was,
holding no power, presence or place.
One Power seems restored again
that never fell from Grace
or went anywhere.
Omnipotence, Omnipresence, Omniscience alone
when giving all Glory to where it belongs.
One Cause now that is Its Own Effect
not capable of straying from Stillness’ Rest.
Not even that is ultimately true,
for there to be power,
it needs to have two…
…at least to human concepts
that like to make sense
of what ignorant nonsense pretends.
Gentle no-power, spacious and clear
remains as All Awareness here,
until then,
invite All to return
into the Heart of their
