The Gaze

Be aware of everything

I had taken the meaning quite literally.I was being aware of the tremor in his smile,of the child taking his little independent steps,the dewdrop glistening on the leaf and dropping,the squirrel darting here and there,the sorrow in her eyes when she spoke about her retarded daughter and so on

It helped me write.It helped me open my mind and i was happy.

When I looked into His eyes the other day,it sent a tremor through my body.

I could not keep His gaze. My eyes deflected,darted and crept back to see Him again

His face had a slight smile and it looked like each and every muscle in His body was relaxed ,at complete ease.

There was a strange radiation coming out of his eyes…..and it was stinging me.

I suddenly felt dirty…impure.

And I mumbled something and walked away.

That evening I thought about it and went to the mirror to look at myself.I tried to have the same expression and steadiness of gaze in my eyes.

I could not.

I tried to visualize the look in his eyes.

And a voice spoke to me.

I dont know whose voice.It could have been His ……

Exhale completely.

Throw out all the baggage in your mind,your thoughts and belief

Inhale completely

Feel the pure air going through your nostrils and into your body cleansing it

Exhale completely

Throw out the tension creeping inside you,throw out your fears

Inhale completely

Fill your lungs,your heart ,your abdomen to the brim

Exhale completely

Throw out your past,throw out your ego in the bin

Inhale completely

Imagine the air dancing through your body in abandon

Exhale completely

Throw out all the black,the green and the red,the lies

Inhale completely

Take in the white,the purple and his divinity inside you

Exhale completely

Free yourself from all weights,feel the lighness of your being

Inhale completely

Touch Him,feel his vibrations entering your now hollow being

Now you are a child

Quiver in His resonance

Be Him

Now look into your eyes

And meet your gaze with steadiness,equanimity,love and peace

And I did.
