Poetry: Violet Light Meditation

Rik Merchant
When I meditate, there often appears

A small round violet light expanding

Till its size overflows my inward eye.

And then suddenly appears small again

And yet again already expanding,

Repeating the expansion and collapse

Over and over and over again

Until I see, hear, feel, and know nothing

But cosmic awakeness to awareness,

humming and bristling with exuberance.

    I read this slowly, and I could feel your words; and heeding them, a sense of relaxation washed over me! Ah, the power of your poetry.

    Beautiful, by the way.
