Koans From My Teacher Poem by Saiom Shriver

Koans From My Teacher



Unnumbered phrases Baba whispered to me in meditation such as

'Not in the morning pond does the lion wash his blood.'

'Embezzled Heart'

'Inside the chalice of wrath is the blood of Jesus'

'They tangle the edge of the river with vines'

while Yogananda said to me and to all:

'The Star of India is within you'

Baba showed me countless pictures in my third eye:

a 4 sided church clock tower in the rain... both hands at 6.. and
each dripping rain drops

He has given me endless dreams... to teach me, to expand my mind,
to nudge me into better ways.

It is not the horse head in the fountain which is the source of the
water flowing through it.

The poems you like are Baba's. Those you don't are mine.
