The Sacred State Of Being

It is like fitting your foot into a perfect sized shoe The sacred state of being is a natural fit for all us This is a one size fit-all phenomenon deep inside our being You just have to allow your being to be cleansed of all acquired knowledge It is these excess stuff that make us unfit to occupy the cubicle of being Acquired knowledge is great, don't get me wrong But every now and then, you have to be the fibre of being Let the nakedness of the spirit be your sole occupation You have to shed all material yearnings, desires, fears, identities, expectations And all attachments You have to be unborn inside the womb of existence And experience the sacred state of being This is the garden of the spirit where all else is non-existent Just for a little while, the body, mind and soul exist as one branch of existence Not troubled by emotional fluctuations and the oscillations of thoughts Not torn apart by the forces of uncertainty, selfishness and wickedness The spirit is submerged in the most beautiful existence, the ocean of being (or awareness) This is the realm of nothingness where you are not defined by physical characteristics or mental disturbances But you are impossible to define because all the tensions of life have been erased You are now a spiritual being with nothingness as your only wealth This is the bowl of peace, freedom, happiness, hope and Love It is an existence that is dimensionless Not defined by space-time Or any of the other invading forces from outside the known world Not touched by the winds of fear, uncertainty and hopelessness It is the stillness and the sacred Silence within This is the sacred state of being It is the realm of God, the Illuminated Light The ocean of awareness and the everlasting life ©Kenneth Maswabi
