No silence
No sound
No reality
No dream
No solitude
No relations
Just Being
In the body
With the mind
No clarity
No confusion
No plan
No action
No knowledge
No ignorance
No buoyancy
No resistance
Just Being

The picture is a nice compliment to your words. Your words brought to me, a recollection of those rare moments when I can sit and be still and am complete.

I am happy it took you to that rare perfect moments. This was slightly different because I was aware of that space, felt a bit unfamiliar and that created some soft ripples …I didn’t question it, just practiced Being there.
Thank you, lovely to know your thoughts on this,

True, I love that too. I am trying to figure out at times, was it really that space if I was aware of it? That awareness was creating those soft ripples in that space.
Thank you very much for sharing your thought.

Your picture was a perfect accompaniment to that beautiful poem. For me, Yoga was a form of exercise, an activity that helped me breathe better, get into a better shape and loosen up my body, but lately after reading so much about it and sensing the positive energy that you share, I have understood that Yoga is beyond just a form of exercise.

Always a delight to know your thoughts on my poem 🙂 Bliss state I can imagine. Though I was in this space for a long time, few days, where I felt nothing …except unfamiliar and weird at times. This poem came in an attempt to describe that space.
