"We Can't Survive Without Our Trees"Mystical Philosophy /A Prayer a Day©2011


"We Can't Survive Without Our Trees" 
Marjorie Lipari©2011
A Prayer a Day
05/31/11

The blues
 The blase’
The human crying
The man from oz
The novice trying
Life is funny
Not always fair
You say that we are heading..... where?
Carbon dating
Earth debating
We can’t survive without our trees
Protect the air
Respect the seas
Hold your balance
Zen appease
On your mark
Why pretend
As you’re standing
Flex and bend
Within reason
Minds expanding
Fruitful season
Gentle landing
Nurturing our morning dove
Here we are now being love
Day by day
We live a prayer
As our bodies feel you there
Grateful breathing
Reaping sowing
Seeds of living
Spirits glowing

Listening,
Rev.Mudra

"Be the Honey"Mystical Philosophy/A Prayer a Day©2011

 "Be the Honey Be the Love"
Marjorie Lipari©2011

A Prayer a Day
05/30/11

Jet propelling
dreaming
beaming
straight ahead
 I’m not dead
Calling life
especially times
I’ve taken fall
downhill grace
loosing all
rolling onward
divest of sin
remembrance
core
my god within
I AM at center
I AM inventor
partnered with the sacred
and all that is divine

As I own my last mistakes
I place my foot upon the brakes of careless ego
Mindfully I turn choosing
Both eyes brightly lightly musing
A wordless truth informs my heart
Taste selectively.... face respectfully
Plumb your depth.... live each breath
Merge completely
Be the honey
Be the love

Listening,
Rev. Mudra

"Be Enlightened"  
Marjorie Lipari©2011

A Prayer a Day
05/29/11

What would be the number one thing
to do to make your life sparkle?
What does sparkle mean to you?
Is your body feeling in harmony
with your commitments?
Does your heart have first bids when
 life is inviting you to make choices?
Does love make you nervous?
Does stillness make you wild?
Do you truly understand intimacy?
Are you a lone wolf or a pack animal?
How far from your true self do you
 imagine you might have mentally wandered ?
Why not soul journey today?
Take a day trip with your spirit.
Mediate by your own design
Be enlightened.

Rev. Mudra

"Only Energy"Mystical Philosophy/A Prayer a Day©2011



"All and Only Energy" Marjorie Lipari©2009
A Prayer a Day


05/28/11



If we are all and only energy, then the


good news is anything and everything is possible.


We are swimming in a mystic lake of miraculous potential.


Every thought we have is the seedling of a manifestation.


Witness your fertile moments creating hours, creating days,


creating seasons, liberating inspired ideas.


The fruit of my mind, as well as yours


 grows in the garden of mankind.


In constant I am contributing, as well


as you are and each of us, to the lay of the land,


for the grand collective design of mortal living.


Pray we take a beat to celebrate our prowess


in the birthing of all of our days.


Pray this day we honor our fecundity of thought,


by paying it great respect and remaining responsible


with the energies we bring to the table of life.


As we think.... we shall create.


As we create....we build this world.


May we design a dominion in lucid harmony


with energies of loving mindfulness.



Listening,


Rev. Mudra

I hope

I pray

I wish

I wonder

No more lies

Illusions asunder

 I live

I give

Bless here and now

I play

I work

Body knows how

Oh yesterday

Oh sweet per diem

I AM that I AM

I stand for freedom

I love

I burn

Sharp senses streaming

I speak

I sing

I whisper dreaming

I dance

I chant

Light colors beaming

My ego error
My fire ant
My fixed ideas
I shall recant

"Perfection Is a Moving Thing" Marjorie Lipari©2006
A Prayer a Day


05/26/11



I do not know what this day will bring


but I know that I shall sing a song or two


And as I choose to serenade with melodies


Might you share the visions with me that you see


Let’s walk together for a ways


 Join me join me sweeten days


Partners siblings friends and lovers


mothers fathers sisters brothers


Witnesses inspired minds


We were born right on time


Perfection is a moving thing


Bells were surely meant to ring


Give it up.....turn it over


Roll your bodies in the clover

 "Ground of Being" Marjorie Lipari©2005
 
A Prayer a Day

05/25/11


Before I get started

I shall go within


As I go within

hear me say "thank you"


To the breath of all breaths


To the one whom I owe my every mortal moment


I kneel with gratitude at the altar of life


May I reap having sown with seeds

of joy and compassion


Let the river of clarity run through my efforts

 that my efforts shall flow in a natural rhythm

to take root in a deep and realized

ground of being

A Prayer a Day

05/24/11



Paths of destiny


Deep into daring


Challenged to be


Deep into sharing


Mortal stories


Dramas glories


Abusing can’t be the way


Compassion pray enters the fray


Deep into clearing


Satiated in gratitude


Deep into hearing


Spirit offering latitude


Mirroring faces


Reflections above


Hands within hands


 Textures of love


Prayer cleanses thinking


Ego now shrinking


One step at a time


Steep mountains to climb

"The Inner Child" Mystical Philosophy/A Prayer a Day©2011

"With the Spirit of a Child" 
Marjorie Lipari©1990
 
A Prayer a Day

05/22/11


How did we get here ?

Who is walking these bodies around ?

Anyone hungry for something other than yesterdays?

What is the point of collecting things?

Don’t you adore the dynamics of deep space?

How thoroughly do you grasp who you are?

Are you in harmony with what you’re here to do?

Ring your bells now.

Thank god for the animals.

Thank god for the colors of life.

Thank god for the way your eyes sparkle upon meeting truth.

Thank god for god.

Thank god for opportunities breathing each day.

Thank god for opera singers and chirping birds.

Thank god for kick butt light carriers.

 Thank god for meditation.

Thank god for people who care beyond the moon.

Thank god for love and laughter and the freedom to cry.

Thank god for imagination.

Thank god for holy mothers

Thank god for fathers with integrity.

Bless every baby born.

Bless every inner child.

"Self Contained with a Line of Demarcation" 
Marjorie Lipari©1992
 
A Prayer a Day

05/21/11


Realizing Buddha

Reflecting the hue

Rays of the living light

Glowing and shining

And when it comes to love

Rivers are flowing

Delivering kindness

Offering grace

Musing on wisdom’s word

Language-ing time and space

Absorbing the mystery

Experiencing history

The ancients

 The innocents

The egoists

The saints

The spinning wheel

The open road

Mothers’ restraints

The holy crest....Invited guest

The secret code....Alas behold

The ecstasy....the harmony

The teaching art of Thoth

The funny tale....the wind of sail

The holy heart....The missing part

"Who Calls Me" Mystical Philosophy/A Prayer a Day©2011


 
"Who Calls Me" Marjorie Lipari©2006

A Prayer a Day

05/20/11

Who calls me

What is the assignment

Which way shall I direct this body

How shall I use this mind

Permit my thinking to unwind

Who calls me

What am I to do with now

Where is my strength of being

What of me shall I fearlessly free

Uncovering the original me

Relaxed for what I’ve come to know

For all I’ve seen

I’m set to flow

Surrendered toward formless spaces

Dreamers eyes seek unknown faces

Couraged up

Readied dually

 Open hearted

 Willing truly

Evolving flight

Through the door

Swimming farther

Beyond safe shore

Yes I promise

Deeper still

Sense the fullness

Of sacred will

Feel the warm


Invite the kiss

Journey bravely


Ally the abyss

"Through the Fog and the Fire"
Marjorie Lipari©2011
A Prayer a Day
05/19/11

When too little is done
When words are misleading
When opinions go nowhere
When fear fights with truth
When eyes see mirages
When egos trip dreams
When changes tempt pain
When unknowns leak terror
When dragging soul’s heels
When stuck to the past
When outside the present
When rushing the future
 Pray
 Beckon the light
Master the night
Pray
Gather your angels
Locate your wings
Saintly to seed
Beginnings to breed
The best of yourselves
Godlike by far
Deep seeing this journey
Through the fog and the fire
Passion’s desire building new ways
Birthing grace blessing the days
Opening hearts
Eager to say
 I love you....I love you

"What Matters Is The Heart"Mystical Philosophy/A Prayer a Day©2011




A Prayer a Day

05/18/11


Full moon up in the sky

For sure to catch the eye


Spilt milk...torn silk

What matters is the heart


What matters are those moments

When our love dissuades our ego


What matters is when kindness

Shares what comes from sacred credo


What  seals the deal ...the promise bade

Being truthful with each other


Integrity speaks in gentle waves


Honor to.... Her ....Our Holy Sister

Honor to.... Him .... Our Holy Brother

"Beyond This Galaxy"Mystical Philosophy/A Prayer a Day©2011


Beyond This Galaxy 
Marjorie Lipari©1988
A Prayer a Day
05/16/11
Waking up to gray
The rain in stubborn play
Indoors shall we muse
Barefoot without shoes
Active brainy
Spirit kin
Recollecting where we’ve been
Holding faith the sun will shine
For lack of light our minds unwind
Passing beyond this galaxy
The soul of you the heart of me
All lovers... friends....family... alike
We witness dreams slip through the night
To wake to mornings don’t and do’s
Discerning for whose sake we choose
So many issues
Rock bottom choices
Speaking up
The truth rejoices

Rev. Mudra

"Simply put...Love is All" Mystical Philosophy/A Prayer a Day©2011


  "At Least Some of Us Aren't Crazy"
Marjorie Lipari©1990
A Prayer a Day

05/15/11


Simply put..Love is All...though ego may not entirely agree.

Drama makes for interesting conditions,
but not necessarily peaceful days.

I prefer drama on the screen and on the stage.

Give me gentle quiet times so my mind will muse with clarity.

When the unexpected jumps in front of my
moving train , pray I own masterful reflexes.

When a fellow traveler feels lost on
life’s path, unable to see the light of spirit,
may humility guide in me to inspire a sacred flame.

May I remember everyday to be only my true self.

May I always recognize the value in another.

In every way may I choose harmlessness
of action and kindness of speech.

In this moment I am resonating gratitude.

In this moment I am blessing every
friend... of the past... in the present...and for the future.

Rev. Mudra

 "Dis...ease" 
Marjorie Lipari©1994
 
A Prayer a Day

05/13/11


Transformation

The butterfly

Rarely pleases ego

Letting go

The special ones

Bring stings

When love is primo

Wisdom witnesses

With less attachment

Life cycles

New beginnings

Patience trust and harbor lights

Usher spirit winnings

Wind lifts wings

Bells strike rings

Currents swim the duck

Courageous ones belt it out

Shy ones...mute...awe struck

The ups

The downs

The spinning rounds

The levitating leaf

Integrity is sanctuary

Compassion is relief

Let’s pray today

 Love melts away dis----ease

The body thief

"I See Beauty Everywhere" 
Marjorie Lipari©2011
A Prayer a Day


05/12/11



I have nothing to complain about


I have so much more to do


I have nothing to be wanting for


I have what matters true


I often see beyond the stars


I fly within my dreams


I notice beauty everywhere


Skylarking rainbow streams


This day I marry head and heart


I pray that we shall never part


To integrate


Lifelong debate


In love with spirit


Listening I hear it


Within myself


God message dear


Pray dance your body


Pray light shines clear


Sweet stillness,


Rev. Mudra
