To Become Enlightened

Date: 9/9/15

Healing energy of the world, please enter through my crown chakra--- through the third eye, the pineal gland- and let me spread energy to all who need its' touch.  Make me a vessel devoid of self-- empty but peaceful, so that I may give all in need strength.

 I do not wish to feel emotion in these moments-- I do not want to be myself.  I want to feel only compassion and hope for others, and abandon all sense of independent identity.   Let me breathe in the strong Spring air, and co-exist in peace with all beings.

Let me sit in an open field with the heart exposed, letting the light's rays penetrate my skin and coalesce within.  Give me the strength I need to make some of a difference in this world full of suffering.  I wish this energy for all, even for those who do not seek it actively.

I am living and breathing for a reason.  I am in this body for a reason that I wish not to know, for I do not want to become selfish.  Mankind is fragile, selfish, taught at a young age to strive alone and work on oneself to higher aspirations so that he can acquire money and material posessions.  

Let me be the one who strives for eternal peace, where I make a difference without thought or going into an analytical state.  Open my eyes to a better world in which I can assist.  Make me a vessel of peace itself and let my personality be gone in the soft breeze. 

 Let my fingers graze the long grass of the fields, and feel only the singular sway of wildflowers reaching to the sky in harmony and oneness.  Let my eyes search not for illustrious city lights, but only the natural brightness of the sun.

Let my openness be the orange, fierce light of healing-- one which is hidden deep inside of all of the universe-- all of the stars birthing and dying--all comets flying through the cosmos from the solitary pull of gravity.  

May all beings gravitate toward this energy in which I can possess, even for a few moments.  Let invisible hands touch them gently and warm their skin with the warm caress of the orange aura that I wish to possess. 

Let me heal, let me experience nothingness so that I can help.  All I want to be is a vessel in which I can release myself and my identity, to touch others and become a gateway in which they will receive liberation from suffering.
