In The Garden Of The Beloved: Reflections from a Simple Man's Spiritual Journey
The poems within were written with only one purpose; to Brighten.
To Brighten hope in the Hearts of those in whom The Ember at the
Heart of Being is not yet aglow. To Brighten the Ember in Hearts
within which it flickers tenuously. To Brighten the Flame in Hearts
already Aglow in the Light of the Soul, the Atman, the Self; whatever
one chooses to call our Essence.
My hope for you, dear reader, is that these poems are not merely
pleasing words on a page, however uplifting, but are imbued with
The Fragrance of that which is written of; that which calls to each of
us from our Deepest Interiority.
There are as many paths to God, as there are souls on earth.
Therefore I say, "This is my experience, not "Truth'".
Therefore I say, "I went this way", not, "This is The way".
Therefore I say, "For me, Love sufficed", not, "For all, Love suffices".
Therefore I say, "I know only this", not, "I have the answer".
Therefore I say, "These are my words", not, "Speak this way".
Each Flower emanates a Fragrance, unique unto its kind.
And in all my life I have never seen, a Rose at war with Jasmine.
