God/Science Gap

God/Science gap

Whilst science
Methodically
Explores
The
Effects
-
Our souls
are
already
experiencing
the
cause

Man would better spend his time
-
Learning how to behave
-
Before trying to discover
-
How his Universe is made

Understanding ..Is Thy Ego That Much Greater



Don’t
Make more of things
That happen
-
Make them always
Less to be
-
For to exaggerate
In passion
Is a trap
Life sets for thee
-
To what end
Would you so travel?
-
Thinking only
Of thyself
-
Thinking not
The side of others
-
Their position
All things else
-
Contemplate
Your opposition
-
Does it mean
So much to thee?
-
Is thy ego
That much greater
-
Than understanding
-
Given free

God قبل

God is like any other thing in our life
-
You have to believe in it
-
Before
( قبل)
-
You can understand fully what it is

We are not dead

Conscious states
We each do own
-
Close our eyes
To be alone

Remote the touch
That stillness dulls
-
Leaving sound
Our brain to lull
-
When scent to smell
Is scarce - it seems
-
Our tastes will sleep
-
So soon we dream
-
The humming sound
Left in our head
-
It signifies
We are not dead

Old Cold

Moonrise
-
In a star studded sky
-
Where the ice of space
With bluestone fire
-
Does send its sparkling rays to set
The secret shapes
Which grow in crystal on the Earth
-
That say:
-
I am the Cold
-
I am the Oldest of the Old
-
I was here before the Sun
-
I shall return
-
When all is done

The Religions of Man Part 11 - or - "Thousands of Years of Incredible Pain"






Tell me of my God
My guide
Not my judge

Of wide open spaces
Of sky and of love

Tell me of my God

Of light
Not of dark

Of the days that we live in
Not dust from the past

Tell me of my God

Not sheep in a line

Nor of Man's religions
Their dogmas
Their signs


Tell me of my God

A presence in mine

To be found in all things
Connected through Time

For here is God's presence

God's temple of peace

Seen from all places
South, West, North and East

Its the Earth and it’s peoples

It’s colours

It’s sounds

It’s lands and it’s oceans
Where life all abounds

The stars in the heavens

The Planets
Their seeds

These are the God in which I believe

And my God is no harm
To those prophets who spake
For all Mans religions
We now should debate


For my God begat them


As he begat thee

But God has now said

Its time God was free

Free of religions
Which slander God's name

The religions of Man

The fanatics insane

The churches
The mosques
The synagogues too

They have nothing to do with the God that I view

Their purpose was served
When their message was spread
In lands far apart

When men spoke
But not read

In days when Man lived in communities
Blind
Of far distant cultures
Of others
His kind

Their message was sent
Yet again and again

Delivered by prophets
With different names

At different times
With different claims

Religions got tangled
Within their own chains


And these messages left us a terrible curse


The division of Man
Across all of Earth

So it’s time to consider
The future of Man

As I can’t believe that this was God’s plan


For the fruits of Religion
Are seen all around

The innocent’s corpses
The blood soaked ground
We see it each day
On our screens we are taught

Religion

The reason that these people fought


If you add up the dead
The wounded and scarred

The innocents murdered
With complete disregard

Religion does not seem to offer much gain

Just thousands of years
Of incredible pain


So here is a statement
A statement of fact

Fit for our time

Man move forward not back

Its time to accept
All your Gods are the same
You are killing each other
Just over a name


So we should examine the Religions of Man


Keep what is good
Use what we can

But when we come to decide
What they’re worth

Remember

It is to Religion that hell owes it’s birth


So to whatever Religion
You may now belong
In whatever language
You sing holy song

Examine your conscience
Your mind let expand
See the twenty first century
As God wanted Man


For God never envisaged
That we should abuse

That greatest of gifts
The power to choose

For God has no favourites
We are all as one
And Religion can’t change that
It won’t be undone


So let us take time to read what was said

By the various Prophets now all long dead

Remember the fact that there can only be
One God for all of us

Surely you see


So if God should be known
By Man
As a whole

The time now has come
For us all
To enroll

In the knowledge of something
We have missed all this time…..

God is Universal
-
It's senses
-
Mankind

The Wheel of Time

I am the wheel of time
-
That turns
-

Where e'er I touch
-
Life's flame
-
It burns
-
Where e'er I touch
-
Is now
-
It's said
-
For as I move
-
The future's read
-
And present 
-
Into past
-
Has fled

Privileged


Intelligence defines his name
-

Man's destiny
Grows with his brain
-
But life?
Well,
It is all the same
-
For from the sea
It surely came
-
Don't kid yourself
That man is it
-
He is but just a part
-
With life he shares
His heritage
-
Through starlight
From the dark
-
And should he think
He better is
-
Because it is
He talks
-
His cousins
They do just the same
-
As on two legs
He walks
-
And should he think
Superior
His manners or his clothes
-
Remember Man
You're privileged
-
Just why
-
God only knows

Very Fortunate Monkeys..


Very fortunate monkeys
-
With minds that wander free
Our world of thought expanding
Rejecting what we see

-
Beyond this world around us
Reality disowned
We live out our desires
In our boxes 

Just like clones

And while we call this progress
The further off we stray
From the system
That supports us

-
More the other monkeys pray

Like the Morning Sun


Just as the reed
Is as the oak
It has for us
So clear been wrote
To fear not death
When it doth come
Upon us
Like the morning sun
For death feared not
Where e're it's flight
Is death feared not
Throughout our life

This World of which we are a part..

When nature carries on
Intent on it’s own plan
-

Oblivious
-
Indifferent of puny man
-
That we in desperation then look round
-

To find a place
-
A face
-
To point a finger at
-

Where blame may be attached
-
A culprit found
-

There is no blame
-
For this is life we live
-

Here we walk with beasts
On dangerous ground
-

Where natures forces are at work
With ice and rock
-

A test for places next
Perhaps where we are bound
-

The trouble is
It seems we have so long forgot
-

This world
Of which we are a part
-

That now we think with arrogance
That we are not
-
