I don't know but I've been told—
third eye is the universal eye
and self-awareness is the dream of
Gods.
Tradition is teaching but being is
the only knowledge
and soma is another word for
kundalini
while the sunshine is within as is
without.
Meditation is like being without
the benefit of thought,
like the universe in the hands of
an unknown absolute,
like this body of light is the only
subject known
(serotonin smiles like dopamine
transversing southern synapses
creating polliwogs of psychedelic
gods arjuna ashwagandha san francisco
om namah shivaya, gone, gone, gone
beyond, gone altogether beyond),
like the halo of a saint, like the
aura of a buddha, self-awareness,
like the big bang is the western
name for this awakening,
like the consciousness of people in
their social conversations—
sweetness of being, spice of
awareness, wood of breath.
