		<description>I read someone's definition of love as the ability to stand at the intersection of truth and discomfort.
Yes?</description>

		<description>In The Embrace of Silence                                

 Beloved, 
Come into my Embrace,
  Softly, silently, lovingly,
 naked totally naked, and feel the joy
of myNothingness Enveloping You.
                                

Beloved, 
Sigh to me in silence,
In silence, whisper of love,
In silence, let your hands caress,
And, revelling in the deep Silence that I am
Become One with me.


HE CALLS


The Lord of my life beckons

In seven coloured Light, do His handmaidens bedeck me,
            His musicians envelope me in seven notes.
                                                                        Bathed in the purity of the Light of lights,
                                                                        Merged in the seven notes of Silence,
                                                                        

I am drawn to His celestial Couch_ _ _ _

Seven are His expressions of caressing Fire,
 Seven His words of Love, 
  Seven the Yugas of our Union,
  Seven the Heavens in His arms.

In one- ness entwined, 
                    Duality no more, 
                              I rejoice in my Beloved,
                                      -----The Lord of my Life.




ah , ivan................
