Pure Seeing

Whatever arises

does so now, here,

grace to Pure Awareness,

perceivable only

as many “times”

as attention was

denied, ignored or

put elsewhere

than

resting as this

Heart of

Pure Awareness.

So many chances

each day

to look directly

at what arises.

No need to go back

to old stories,

attachments, wounds,

conditioning.

Just pure seeing,

then directing

attention

to the subtle witness

that projects

these images

onto the movie screen

one by one

until only

pure seeing

remains

in this dream

of otherness,

lucid dreaming

through

Grace’s wakeful

Heart present-ness.

The subtle witness

and its myriad arisings,

no matter what their form,

appearance, appeal, resistance,

always one and the same,

both void of

intrinsic reality,

empty in and of themselves

as Pure Awareness

is All.

Embracing them

via pure seeing,

their sting

peacefully dissolves,

the little wave

surrenders onto the shore

and knows itself

as water again as

the sun ray is

representative of

all pervading

Light

shining

as Heart Awareness

only,

right here,

right now

where clouds

seemed to veil

our eternal

Light.
