ZEN* mountain in Soul*

ZEN* mountain in Soul*

Go atop a mountain summit, to see a view

Look out at the vastness with skies so blue

A traipse through the woods and also a trail

Nothing but openness, one cannot fail

A few more steps to get there so quick

Another great mountain, that the Spirit has picked

Alert but it is Awareness in a zero*

Alert but it is Awareness in a zero*


Alert all around and well informed
Now this one is always forewarned
For there is nowhere to really be
Enlightened one, with insight to see
But it is its Awareness that takes care of that
Anything outside oneself is dropped to the zero, dead flat

Depths no longer as one Awakens*

Depths no longer as one Awakens*


No place to be but in front of the pond
Deeper in its depths only to become calm
The surface is seen and reflective too
The clouds have all vanished and sky so blue
But what is deep can no longer be
For that is cloudiness, but instead arise to see

Nothingness in effortless freedom*

Nothingness in effortless freedom*

Nothingness that cries a lot, out loud

Silence is its friend, a void is its shroud

Both have one thing in common as it is still

Feeling the intentions manifest, right with its will

The Awareness kicks in and one begins to see

The eyes that do so make the body Now so free

ZEN in nothing but here*

ZEN in nothing but here*


A fictitious outline, on the other side of the mirror
Cannot be grasped where I am, not even nearer
An illusion that masks the energy that is within
How does this one let go and no where to begin?
No longer it is, when one learns this is to detach
Look on the gateless gate, the hook is unlatched

For I am the mountain, no less no more*

For I am the mountain, no less no more*


Oh wonder in the sky, sitting in the cloud
To make my first step as it does allow
Now a bit of the pull does come in each stride
But once one is moving, it is an effortless ride
Through twists and turns and rocks below
For I am the mountain, the one you know

Ignorance has ignored itself*

Ignorance has ignored itself*


There is none in front, that I can see
For it is the zero, that has dropped in front of me
This stillness and calm has come at last
In its release was of no easy task
But a little at a time, it no longer showed
Like it fell off and never did see but did let go
