The Buddha and The Sea

Sunlight upon the shore,
Like a vision of time.
Ilumi-waves unfolding,
Meld-layering as one.
A voice of nature,
Ancienic
Deep
Called to
Deep..
SEA
Arise..
Arise..
Wake up..
Stardreamer-
BUDDHA
Who am I?
SEA
Timeless.
Mystery of atoms.
Void architecture.
BUDDHA
Who are you?
SEA
Your mind the sea.
And your mother.
Where life began.
BUDDHA
My root.
SEA
Aye, once the great Spirit,
Moved over the waters,
Before land was formed,
Before evolution began.
BUDDHA
The thunderbolt in the void.
SEA
Yes
Great Spirit.
Thunderbolt
in the void.
Mysterious enigma
Truth,
All things:
The uncarved
And the carved.
The animation,
The spark.
A dream
Planted in me to grow-
To become something new.
BUDDHA
Are you Great Spirit too?
SEA
Yes great Spirit
divided itself
into the father
and the mother
to create you.
BUDDHA
Then it is my
very lifeblood
my animation.
I must be
Great Spirit too.
SEA
You are married yes -
but you are also seperate.
Part of one vine, but a distinction.
Connected, but with differing
shades of colour.
Your purpose is the same though:
To Evolve.
BUDDHA
Why?
SEA
Evolution means
becoming
something better.
Something stronger.
Something wiser.
The meaning of life is to live.
Life causes growth.
Growth equals evolution.
BUDDHA
For forty days I have sat here
In lotus posture,
Wind gathered salty hair.
Sorcerers illusions
Have I wrestled.
Demons have
crippled me
with
want and fear.
Deities have sought my belief.
And darkness
has tried to
take my soul.
Tired am I.
Weary.
Enough.
Is this all you have to say?
My eyes recieve
your
Visiotherapy.
But they also
Weep tears of
Audio-empathy.
SEA
Why do you weep?
BUDDHA
Because there is so much suffering.
Everyday I hear their cries.
The lonely and the broken.
How many tears?
How many tears have fallen,
Since life began?
Is this the price of evolution?
I do not understand The Great Spirit,
even if it is part of me.
SEA
Life is hard.
God dreams it so.
Suffering is the
yeast within the dough.
That causes the bread to rise.
A tree cannot find the light
If it's seed is not first
Planted in the darkness.
All things that grow have their roots in it.
It is the darkness that makes
you search for the light.
Yearn for it, reach out for it.
Like a seedling pushing
your way through the soil.
Opening out your many branches
to recieve it's healing warmth.
For to become like God means
To become a multi-faceted diamond.
A marriage of opposites.
The pinnacle of evolution.
BUDDHA
Am I a dream?
Or do I dream of God?
SEA
You are God dreaming of himself.
You are the dreamer and the dreamed.
The dream is everything and
You become what you dream.
BUDDHA
Then if this is enlightenment:
To become lucid and know
the dream is everything.
To know I am the dreamer
And the dreamed.
The animation, the spark.
The one who makes life bloom:
I will dream of focus.
I will dream of hope.
I will dream of truth.
I will dream of love.
I will dream of serenity.
I will dream of composure.
I will dream of unity.
And
I will dream of a path out of suffering.
Oh
BuddhaSea.
