Néha az emberek nem is olyan rosszak
Adok szeretetet, mit majd viszonoznak
Segítő kezet nyújtok a rászorulóknak
Kitárom szívem a szépnek és a jónak

May the light of your soul guide you.
May the light of your soul bless the work
You do with the secret love and warmth of your heart.
May you see in what you do the beauty of your own soul.
May the sacredness of your work bring healing, light and renewal to those
...Who work with you and to those who see and receive your work.
May your work never weary you.
May it release within you wellsprings of refreshment, inspiration and excitement.
May you be present in what you do.
May you never become lost in the bland absences.
May the day never burden you.
May dawn find you awake and alert, approaching your new day with dreams,
Possibilities and promises.
May evening find you gracious and fulfilled.
May you go into the night blessed, sheltered and protected.
May your soul calm, console and renew you...

SZERETNI A LEGSZEBB DOLOG.
MINDEGY MILYEN BÖRŐD SZÍNE.
MINDEN EMBERNEK A SZÍVÉBŐL JÖN AZ IGAZ SZERETETT.

The Pacifist

You wonder why I’m a Pacifist
when you see such grief and pain
you wonder that I’m a Pacifist
with so many sights like these;
as the missiles deep booming,
roar and crump, flash and burn
killing your friends at your side
their pleading eyes, and rasping
last breath before their eyes dim.
And still you wonder I’m a Pacifist.

Is my mind really so weird
when I would see it all end?
I would not deprive the sick
the medicines that they need
nor would I murder the young
nor orphan, nor widow them,
nor would I devise explosions
to bereave whole families at once.

So who is the crank here?
Who peppers the clusters,
those bright infant deaths;
and who forms the craters
where once a car drove by,
and whose indiscriminate
destruction is seen here?
And who fills the graveyards
with weeping and wailing…so
who is the crazy one here?
And you wonder I’m a Pacifist!

Art ..........................aum.............................. that indeed is the Essence ........... the Willingness to weigh oneself in the light of Light ,,,,, and opt for the inner transformation ..................... opening the door and the windows to Light, and allow the light do the wonder of chasing the non-existant darkness away .................

away, away, away ..........

Light unto Light ...................... water merging in water ..................... never to be separate again !

Thank you Art............... may your words, arising from the Source, lead many of us unto the Source ! AUM

Your love
does it flow from the depths
of child-like innocence
embracing the world in wonder?

Your joy
does it break the silence
with a dance of celebration
inviting participation by those eclipsed by sorrow?

Your patience
does it introduce calm
into tense situations ruled by insecurity
allowing reason to rule in place of chaos?

Your passion
does it embrace every task
like lovers inflamed with pleasure
creating master pieces of excellence?

May your willingness to answer these questions
give birth to the new you, a person of love, joy, patience and passion.

Thanks David. Truly we have to BE what we want to have, to see in our lives.

I am the change I want to see
I am the Love that I want to have
I am the Peace that I want to be
So be it.

Be The Change

Dear Mr Gandhi, did you really say
that we have to become the change
that we want within the world?

Dear Mr Gandhi, your saying is so hard.
Can I really do it, this monumental thing:
and change the entire world?

Dear Mr Gandhi, what is it you ask;
for me to leave my comfort behind
and walk the dry dusty roads?

Dear Mr Gandhi, do you really mean,
my insignificant voice can be heard
and force the world to change?

Dear Mr Gandhi, I wish I had courage,
for then this task that lies ahead,
wouldn’t frighten me so.

Then Dear Mr Gandhi turned and smiled,
“Is this little task so hard…
You won’t be alone.”
