Criticism and accusation

 

Is just a kind of alibi
To veil one’s own weaknesses
not to be critized, accused…

Oneness

 

We see a part of the other in us
and a part of us in the other

Quote: “Love beautifies” – by Sant Kirpal Singh

 

Love beautifies everything
and if we learn to love everyone,
all our imperfections can be washed away,
especially by loving kind words.

 

Sant Kirpal Singh (Book excerpt from: Spiritual Elexir)

 

Experience

 

There is a huge difference
If we hear about something
Or if we experience it

Dreams come true

 

Dreams come true

Unrealized Dreams
Create space
For doubts and disharmony
Realized dreams are based
On patience and confidence…

Faith in love…

We are all humans

 

We are humans
Search for mutual nearness
Grab hands
Touch interests
Merge in groups

We are humans
Shelter of kindred spirits
Build a fortress
Keep together
Set contrary poles

We are humans
Create spaces
Conflicts
Draw boundaries
Form opposites

We are humans
Fear the loss
Have rubbing thoughts
Moving tectonic frames
Prepared defence

We are humans
In search of solutions
Peacefully together
Accept being different
Dismantling barriers

We are humans
Remember – humanity
Open hearts world-wide
Take us by our hands
Merge into unity…

Unity of Man

 

If we humans face trouble
Merit great suffering
Our humanity awakes
Then we help each other
With open heart
Not asking from where we come
What colour, religion we have
We are then one in distress
Standing together from man to man

Back in our everyday life we fall asleep again
In anonymity, distance, old habits

Foreign people who lay in their arms
Now avoid eye contact

So let us keep this humanity alive
Not just in bad times, but also in good times

Let us be aware of this deep happiness
Of this unique unity – as we are all One
With selfless help any time…

Wishes in the sand

 

Spirit dressed in matter
Dreams awake, ready  to fly
Reality to find
Freedom to search
To be alive

Marbled illusions
Take shape
In the wind of time
Unfolding dusty dreams
Perishing, renewing continously

Spirit woven in the light
Caressing the very moment
Eagle flight in timeless skies
Dissolves in the light
On wishless traces

DidiArtist, 05.08.2011

 

Dawn of light

 

The morning rises
Strong and powerful
Embraces the world
A sunshine beam
Bringing light
To every heart
Every eye
Transporting the light
From eye to eye
From heart to heart

Shadows fade in light
Understanding arises
The end of selfish mind
The love to praise

The morning rises
Time to wake up
Star at night
Sun in day
To bring the light
In every house
To make it stay
Embracing everyone

Ocean of life

 

Life is too short
To waste time

So let us make
The best use of it

To cross the Ocean of Life…

DidiArtist, 10.05.2017

 

Moments of life

 

Moments engraved
On timeless paper
Squeeze the life
Out of the moment
Solidify in the time
Painted in eternity

Life rushes forward
Without past, future
Lives in the very moment
Loses in time
Sounds in echos
Lived-loved glance

Remains back
In fixed expressions
Touches only the presence
In shadowy memories
What once used to be alive
Now lies dead, a copied something

Accumulated and beaded life
Supplied by space and time
The moment does not stay
Devides in silent progress
Rising from the past and future
Free from time and space

Mind and rider

 

Our mind is like a wild horse
Utmost hard to tame
Throws off the real rider
In exchanged roles
Riding the soul

DidiArtist, 01.06.2017

Power seekers

 

Power seekers want
To control
Dictate and rule over people,
Use all means
Without scruples
To reach their goals

May God bless them
With right understanding
Respect people
Not prison them in fear
With their intrument of power
In their hands

May they see their own mirror image
To understand what they are doing
And stop abusing power
On the shoulders
Of millions of people

DidiArtist, 15.10.2011

 

Acceptance and respect

 

Easy it is to critisize
But difficult it is
To think oneself into situations
Not belonging to us

We do not live
With decisions
Another person
Has to take

We do not live
The life of anyone
With his/her background
Instead ignore reasons

So no right we have
To condemn or judge
Or make us only better
With hidden motives?

DidiArtist, 02.03.2014

 

What role do we play?

 

We all are playing
Only one role
The role
Of the One

DidiArtist, 26.03.2014

 

Overcome walls between us

 

We fight for differences
Erupt in hate, blind conflicts
Measure colours of skin
Within tight sights

Fight for good and better
Separate religions
Hide behind names
Dismember unity

Cultures and nations
Meet in fear, have no trust
Prepare for wars
Mankind’s annihilation

When do we see and learn
We are all human beings?

Let us create values of harmony
To live in peace and oneness

On the common level of a Human Being…

DidiArtist, 26.09.2015

 

Human currency

 

Human currency

Criticism and praise
Are sides
From the same coin

Do we want to pay
With roses or thorns?

Sit or stand?

 

We people usually remain
Sitting just there
Where we stand…

Cosmic snooker

 

Often we find us controlled
Beyond our control

Visible and invisible

 

Our fantasy takes shape
On an empty white paper…

Ego needs applause

 

We say we want to share
But our ego is tricky
Wants to be heard and seen
Needs you, wherever you are

We fly in lies
Cheat ourselves
Are identified
With the mind

Our good words and deeds
Need ears and eyes
To caress our ego
To be proud

Silence has no witness
A way to overcome
Separation, illusion
A vortex without an echo

DidiArtist, 25.02.2012

 

Through which glasses do we see the world?

 

If our glasses are pink
All we see is pink

If our glasses are smoke-coloured
The whole world appears as smoke

What kind of glasses we bear
Is a reflection of our condition…

Is a facet of decption, illusion
From the well: clouded gaze

However, if we do not wear glasses
We are beyond good and evil…

Let us rise
Above these worlds…

We are in this world
But not from this world…

Sense of life: – A merry-go-round?

 

 

Is it the sense and purpose of life
To be after money and wealth
To fulfil “all” wishes?

Is it the sense and purpose of life
To start founding a family
Which in turn starts founding a family?

Is it the sense and purpose of life
To strive for power and prestige
As a legacy for posterity?

Or is it the sense and purpose of life
To develop as human being
To step out of this copied circle?

Is it the sense and purpose of life
To build one’s house on transient sand
To call this house home?

Or is it the sense and purpose of life
No longer to be the “Doer”
But to be a tool in God’s hands?

Our true home is timeless
It is the temple in each of us
Lets build upon it – as human being…

Everything is subject to time up to timelessness
Our real home in God…

The sun-beam coming home
To its source…

Revealing a secret

It’s me, Didi, at the age of 18 years – now I am much older…
A friend of mine and I arranged a photo-story: Man and nature…

Why I use nightskies in my artwork

Maybe many from my friends and followers have wondered why I almost always use stars as a kind of emblem in my artwork. This time I want to share this “mystery” to you.

When I was 2 years old we were living close to a forest and at that time there were hardly street lamps installed. My mother used a pram and was walking with me as a baby along a smaller path of a close forest which was really dark. I remember – although so young – that someday when my parents again had to walk with me along the edge of a forest, there was such a wonderful star-night which impressed me so much, although I surely did not understand it, only had feelings for this wonderful miracle in the sky, no words of course (I think we think in feelings at this age, a language maybe straight from the heart). Now if I think back I would describe the stars like sparkling diomonds in the dark night. I felt safe in it, like to be in my mother’s arms. I felt something very big in my heart.

This impression has accompanied me my whole life and therefore you will find space and time, stars of living beauty in my artwork, an expression of embracing eternity, infinity…

Thanks for your attention 🙂

All good wishes

Powerful thoughts

 

Thoughts are writing our lives
Filling the white sheet of paper
In the very moment
With the handwriting of our lives

DidiArtist, 19.10.2014

 

Poison of the mind

 

 

Sometimes we are like snakes
Injecting our poison
Into the heart of other people

Sometimes we are like scorpions
Directing our sting towards ourselves
To punish ourselves and others

Neither this or that is a solution
We should rise above it
And free us from the poison of our mind…

How? – Through love, honesty, Oneness, and non-violence

DidiArtist, 18.03.2014

 
 
 

Habits

 

 

Follow us
At every turn
Like programmed
In our steps

So we follow them
Obey their “suggestions”
Repeatingly
Hardly look beyond

Habits are made of steel
Good or bad ones
Not easy to change
Are platforms of the mind

Requires iron discipline
To open new ways
Ways of love and light
A step to our inner sight

DidiArtist, 18.03.2014

 
 
 

True Love

 

 

True love is not a business
True love has no expectations
True love shares and gives
True love exudes the fragrance of the heart
True love unites, embraces
True love sacrifices without equivalent
True love is full of humility
True love is full of compassion
True love is consciousness
True love is the light of God

Let us light this light in us
And share it with the whole world

DidiArtist, 05.02.2017

 
 
 

Denouncing

 

 

It is easy to denounce someone
For his or her shortcomings

Then why not dencounce
Ourselves for our shortcomings?

But obviously we are using
Double standards…

Peace on earth

 

 

We learn to appreciate peace
As soon we have lost it
