Ships and wind
One of the beautifull dialogues, I had with my, that time little, son Michael:
- Daddy, what is at the end of the universe?
- Universe doesnt have end, in this space.
- And exist there more universes than this one?
- Yes, it does, countless…
- And that universes are abreast each other?
- It is difficult question. They exist simultaneously, but it is difficult to explain.
- But, if it would be abreast each other, what would have been in between them?
- You would have been somewhere, where there is no space or time.
- Is it where God lives?
- Yes, he lives there too.
- And where else does he live?
- In your heart, for example.
- Ahh, hmm….and when He is in my heart and also in between that universes, what is here? (pointing the room we are sitting in).
- (ups….things are getting complicated) “Here” nor “there” does exist, it just appers to be so here, in this world, you know? It is called Mithya. But, yes, he is also here.
- I see, so God is here and there too and in between as well?? So it only seems to us it is not, isnt it?
- Yes, exactly. Before we wake up.
- That God is like a huge ocean, isnt it?
- Yes, an unending ocean of love.
- That many universes that are abreast each other looks like ships that sail on its level…does the ocean have the level?
- Mmmm….it doesnt, but such ships can sail there. And what are the ships from?
- I dont know, daddy, but they sail like on the top.
- Yes, they sail on the top like a bubbles, when the wind blows on the ocean.
- Is it the wind that makes the bubbles?
- Yes, the ocean just watch
- I see…and we are on that ships and we are also from that water, isnt it?
- hmmm, yes, we do….
- And can we jump into that ocean?
- Umm, you can say it like that. In this world it appears to be so.
- But it also only seems to us to be so, isnt it?
- Yes, it is so…
- Daddy, isnt it right that we are in that ocean already?!
- (I broke into guffaw, from that depth of meditation that dialogue brought me to)
- I knew that!!! I go to the garden to swing…
After an hour:
- Daddy, and what will happen with me, if I jump from the ship to that ocean?
- You will become that ocean, and you will have all the beauty of that ocean in your heart, and you will know it.
- And will you be there too, daddy?
- Yes, I will. There will be everyone as one, before, on that ocean the wind blows again, and on its level will appear another ships with curly kids that love to swing in the garden….:)
- Now, I am not afraid anymore, daddy.
Little son kissed me, and satisfied leaved to swing in the garden, to dream about ships and ocean. And I closed my eyes again, to continue in singing….to that ocean, to the wind, and to the ships, sailing carelessly in eternity, before we will be once again together, and all the songs will silence, in the bliss of the ocean….

A Father to his Child.
I wish you to be a word
a simple A to be uttered,
at the dawn and sun-set
by a Goddess and a God,
and over a land of beauty and virtue
to be gently laid,
with simplicity and confidence.
I wish you to be a voice,
a soft touch of a Reality,
like a feather floating in a mornig breeze
entering into a world,
a Light,
a bright beam of a Father Sun.
I wish you to be …
Thank you for your comment Andrej, beautifull.
With pleasure Viny, however, You set forth the idea, I have just written the echo of delighted space.
I have had a dream, a long time, there is a communication between Mankind in poems. Thus no better way is expressed reverence, love, beauty and sharing of these qualities …. and making ourselves towards beloved God.
