The Presence Response in the Instant of Pain: That Reveals Happiness Is

The Presence Response
In the Instant of Pain:
That Reveals Happiness Is

The Presence Response
In the Instant of Pain
Moves beyond
The pitfall of postponement

Pain is not a problem
Pain is a postponement

Pain is a postponement
Of meeting the arising experience
This instant

No more postpone or hide pain
It’s spilling all over the landscape anyway
May as well be candid and real
This instant

Welcome to
The marquis of the current movie—
The neon sign that reads:
A species in pain

See the real marquis
Blazing here now:
Awake as Presence
This Instant

Awake as Presence
Respond as that
And reveal
Eternal happiness
As all
For all
This instant

The new movie marquis:
Happiness as All

Meet pain this instant
Awake as Presence
Eternal Love
Aware of every arising
In intimate welcoming

Intimate welcoming
Means
Zero judgment
Soft
Soft

Pain is not a problem
Pain is a portico
To enter the Holy of Holies

Pain is not a failure
It is the sacred call
To realized intimacy
With the Supreme Creator

Pain is not a power
It is the Light Trigger
To remember
Only Home is Real
Home is Sensitive Aliveness
This instant

Pain is not an entity
It spurs awakeness
From all dreams
And then disappears
With the dream

We often think
Spiritual height
Depends upon what we do
In meditation and spiritual practice

Often, spiritual height
And plain caring decency
Often has more to do
With how we respond to pain
In this instant

Spiritual height
Really means realization
Of what already Is
Deific Love Is

Respond to pain
As a closed heart
Then, devolution happens

Respond to pain
As judgment upon judgment
Then, division upon division happens

Respond to pain
As resistance
Then, blindness happens

Respond to pain
As God Presence
Then, the enlightened way happens

Respond to pain
As Presence Awareness
Then, Oneness happens

Respond to pain
As openness to feel
To welcome every sensation
Open, free, vast
Then, Seeing happens
Seeing is the Freeing

Awake
As Eternal Love
Inside
Outside
As One

In the moment
Of felt existential pain
Uncontract conditions
Rest as Unconditonal Love
Embody the way
Of non-resistance

Drop back free
From mind comments
Let go of opinion and position
Have disinterest in every judgment

Forsake hardening
Go soft
Open the heart
Express compassion
Be the Grace

Awake as Presence
God intimately knowing Itself as You
Respond as Presence
To all pain
Without needing it to dissolve
Yet, feeling it wash away
Like a white foamed ocean wave
Mindlessly washes over
Writing on the sea shore
Erasing imprints on the sands of time
As if they did not even appear

Love Presence Is
Where pain appears
Uncontract the bud form of pain
And behold the tender infinity rose
Of You
As God’s beauty upon beauty
God’s cherish upon cherish
God’s beloved upon beloved
You
