Darkness cannot light itself

An extinguished candle
Cannot bring the light to other candles…

Monolith society: Between light and shadow

 

 

Individuals
In the grip
Of dictation
Education

Squeezing egoism
Attached to
Showbags
Promised candy

Imprisoned mind
Based on
Empty words
Ensnared wishes

Refulgence without orign
Sheep behaviour
To follow blindly
Embraced by ignorance

Hierarchic divions
To give importance
With instilled power
Often abused

Swinging between
Creeping corruption
And ideals in light
Showering humanity

Togetherness is light
Separation just darkness
With no life and consciousness
Lost in selfish desires

Rigid society,
Turns into humanity
By individuals
Becoming human

Beware your dream
And make it come true
To manifest harmony
Between you and yours

Dream of life

 

 

Empty pages fill up
With life and strength
Words form
Thoughts flow

Presence, a spinning thread
In the seal of light and shadow
Gives expression
Projects reality

Looking holds on to itself
Observes how life writes:
Performance, human theatre
Morphing scenery

Ears hear movements
The echo, the trace
The noise of blood
On white paper

Sound and beat of the heart
Make features visible
Dream of Yes and No
Jerk through time and space

Empty pages fill up
In the deep moment
Drawing boundaries
Turning life into duality…

Hidden in our own shadow

When we allow our mind to control us
To follow the tracks of our wide-ranging feelings
To follow the delusions of our intellect
We stand in our own shadow

DidiArtist, 31.10.2021

Uncontrolled development

How many things do we do
Without knowing what we are doing?

How many things do we do
Without seeing the consequences?

How many things do we do
Unconsciously and automatically?

How many things do we have to learn
So that we become aware of them?

How many things do we have to learn
So that we develop right understanding?

How many things do we still have to learn
For real love to awaken in us?

We can learn throughout our whole life
But without self-insight, we live in the shadows….

The root of all evil

The original sin is our mind….

DidiArtist, 07.12.2021

Market of the world

The world is spinning
Everything moves
Time passes
Breath flows

Spaces are dreams
Foam of the mind
Shadows on the wall
Burnt reality

Everything changes
Comes and goes
Like a sandstorm
Without a trace

In truth everything stands still
Has no movement
No time, no space
Is only illusion, a shallow dream

Where there is light
Is no darkness
Where there is darkness
Is no light

We breathe deception, maya
Lose ourselves in the shadows
Follow the lure of the world
Do not listen to the inner call

Sinking in the mud of desires
Removing ourselves from our Selves
In the rampage of our shortsightedness
Without stability and balance

We stand still by ourselves
The veil lifts
Carries us into the light
That waits for us…

DidiArtist, 15.08.2021

Transience and Eternity

The body travels
Through time and space
Changes in the shadow
Of the light
While the soul remains
Observer, prisoner
Of the mind
Between transition and eternity

DidiArtist, 03.07.2021

Stage of the world

 

 

Our thinking, feelings, deeds
Are a projection, reflection
Backdrop of our lives
Woven past and present
Seemingly make us actors
But are only silent observers
In an interactive illusion

DidiArtist, 29.05.2021

 
 

The world is like a mirror

 

 

We lose ourselves in it
Identifying ourselves with it
With this mirror image
Without knowing
That it is only a reflection
Of our own Self…

It is the shadow of the inner sun…

DidiArtist, 25.04.2021

 
 

Love without shadows

 

 
 
 

Beyond senses

 

 

Ego is the separation of Oneness
Is a life in duality
Shadow of eternity
Illusion, misguiding Maya

Ego is the doer of the shadow-world…

The only Doer is the Doer of the Ocean
The One of the great Oneness…

DidiArtist, 04.10.2020

 
 
 

Light and shadow

 

Sometimes we appear
Because of pride and fear

Sometimes we lie
To have no cry

Sometimes we hide
From our side

Sometimes we play
With mud and clay

Sometimes we cheat
And steal the seed

Sometimes we are loud
On which we are proud

Sometimes we pretend
With masks we were lent

Sometimes we fight
With our mind too tight

Sometimes we’re blind
Convinced of our kind

Sometimes we cannot see
The beauty of a tree

But sometimes we can hear
The voice of the heart
And all is clear
Our conscience, our guard

DidiArtist, 15.10.2011

 

In the shadow of guilt

   
   

Sometimes the victim commits
In the shadow of guilt
Morally forbidden acts himself
To hide self-made mistakes…

DidiArtist, 09.09.2020

Find me

 

 

We can be found
In our eyes
In our voice
In our actions
In our words
In our smell
In our kiss
In our love

Everywhere wherever we are expressed
we leave unique traces of our soul
Covered through our mind…

DidiArtist, 27.08.2020

 
 

We are not the doers…

 

The shadow thinks:
It is moving
But it is the light
That makes it moving…

DidiArtist, 20.12.2016

 

Light and Darkness

 

In light there is no darkness
In darkness there is no light
We often jump from light to shadow
And from shadow to light
According to our jumping mind

To stay in light
Thoughts need to be bright
Be sunshine
For no mine and thine
To empty our ego
With buckets of shadows
To fill the vacuum with light divine
To make us pure and fine

Darkness flees
When light is coming
Stars embrace the moment
Happiness bestowment
Open hearts with inner keys

DidiArtist, 30.05.2018

 

Shadow and light

 

 

Outside we find the shadow, ego, separation
Inside the light, the soul, oneness…

DidiArtist, 02.03.2019

 
 

Dangerous ways

 

 

How many things do we mix
Put in the same pot
Lose the sharp look
To differentiate?

Slip in thoughts
Are deluded in results
Stay in the wilderness
In the jungle of ignorance

How many things do we declare
To know them, without knowing
Without personal experiences
Adopt, accept without checking?

Are proud of acquired opinions
Soup of light and shadow
We defend angrily, vehemently
Leaving traces of violence

So we eat our meal
Convinced of its taste
Ignoring the risk
To upset the stomach of our spirit…

Quote: “God is the Doer” – by Kabir

 

 

Shadow plays

 

 

We are like shadow plays on the wall…

DidiArtist, 09.10.2018

 

Voiceless meeting

 

 

Eyes whisper the language
Of feelings, temperature
Exchange wordlessly
Vibrate and sing

Meeting within the gaze
Approach and leave
Attract, repel each other
Send and receive

Throw light and shadow at each other
Search themselves in contact
To find: cordiality, friendliness
Between action and reaction

Dance in invisible words
In the rhythm of the eyesight
Give themselves away, reflect
Love each other in happiness

DidiArtist, 09.06.2019

 
 

Shadow and Reality

 

 

We are the shadow
A hidden reality
A world of shadows
Reflection
Of a mystical being…

DidiArtist, 03.11.2019

 

Shadow of truth

 

 

Wherever our ego manifests
There we live in the schadow of the truth…

DidiArtist, 07.10.2018

 

Another Layer of an Illusory Reality

 

 

The mirror creates its image
Within the reflection
Of a mirror created within the mirror

Another world to keep us away from ourselves
From our own Home, a reality without reflections…
