When I was with Ian Wolstenholme he sent me out as he said someone is waiting for you. I was adamant that there was no one in my town who is open to This which is known as one of the most deprived areas in the UK
We don't wake up in plush retreats we fall awake in our bedrooms. So meeting Donna began a flood of people in my area who have come to my work place who are very open to This.
I met Donna, her brother had just hung himself. She had fallen awake from it all. I walked into a place where they were teaching healing and energy work. Donna wasn't there at first but the teacher of the course said to her someone's walked through the door he's different I think you should meet him.
I took a course on healing, Ian never told me the cost 😂 but it was a rip off, I could have brought a car, or gone to a casino and had real fun but still when I met Donna through the course I was slowly pulling her out of that place. She was the worth the cost.
The poetry was deepening in her. I made her write them down.
I want to share one poem with you of hers as we would lie down at a famous Hindu temple near to us in Oldbury U.K. We used to lie on the grass there to talk of this space. It was a space in a built up deprived area where we could be more open. So we used it.
The beauty is the sharing of a woman awakening to That. Most traditions talk from a male or patriarchal tradition something to do to come to This. Some meditation practice but she was talking from being a woman, loving nature and feeling This away from
a male teacher, tradition and most satsangs you see in the marketplace.
Which was refreshing as I could see how she could share over as her heart really served in the now.
And many women follow what's on the marketplace of awakening mainly from a male teacher perspective but in certain traditions like Tantra the women brought male students to realisation. They didn't believe in rigid discipline years of meditation but a few months of Being in their presence to help awaken the seeker practitioner to their true nature.
As we were off work for a while. The Eminems of the awakened world lol. One of the poems as she felt she was being met arose from this stillness, silence
Remember these are your words too they don't belong to anyone. You know this deep down.
I Am Love
I am love in love with itself
I am the stillness that bares all
I am the sun rising and setting
I am the sand on the shore
I am the mother and the birthed
I am the lover and the conceived
I am the all that is given
And I am That that is received
I am my lover and mother
And I am death and life
I am forever and eternal
I am life's delight
I am the desire and orgasm of explosive light
All the heavens and earth in me take flight
I am That that is sought yet feared apart
I am the veil the covering and the revealing heart
I am all that is and all that is not
I am infinite expanse I am a tiny dot
I am woman open flushed with desire
I am the Beloved entered filled with fire
I am the one infused emanating light
I am seen and I see by the lovers own sight
I am born in the moment of each moments call
I am all That I Am....I Am The All
