Purification The sorrow and fears of borne existence lie deep in the belly as the great unwinding of contractred existence builds on its own momentum. The seething hurts exposed to the light of awareness release through the pores, the belly unwinds in blissful fashion and a breath can be taken that was held back for centuries. The black moods of the heart lift like demons exorcised and the pains exit the mouth like black smoke from the furnace. The question mark of a life of dilemma gives way to the exclamation point of the primacy of free awareness and being. Awareness then stands tall in the power of its self-knowingess, carrying with it bodily energies and physical corporality in its bright emergence. July 16, 2001 (1 of 1)
