Many long time San Diego Deeksha givers have fond memories of being treated to a recitation of Brad's latest poem at the end of a beautiful evening of Deeksha. Here is an all-time favorite. Enjoy...:)
We are this love.
It is not something we do, or allow
Or invoke in perfect moments when planets and stars align
Or seek when loneliness languishes at our door demanding entry.
We are this love
Free of our tedious little personalities
And traits
And stories oft repeated that once enthralled us as much as others
As though that which is measurable and tellable
And frameable in ordinary words and perspectives
Could somehow be more useful or precious or dear
Than what we really are… this love.
This love we are
Sings and dances and seeks expression
From moment to moment
Unfurling itself
Revealing the tenderness
The relentless authenticity
And the radiant sacredness
Of All That Is
And all this we are
For we are this love…
To not delight in Its full expression
And expansion
And ecstatic release into form
Is to miss the heart of Its holy movement
To sit as a casual spectator
Obsessing over the ordinary
While angels swirl among us
Coaxing us to dance with them in the light.
We are this love.
