Rakaat Shantih

by Victor Om Shanti


I sat upon the shore
Fishing, with the arid plain behind me
Shall I at least set my lands in order?
London Bridge is falling down falling down falling down
Poi s'ascose nel foco che gli affina
Quando fiam uti chelidon-O swallow swallow
Le Prince d'Aquitaine à la tour abolie
These fragments I have shored against my ruins
Why then Ile fit you. Hieronymo's mad againe.
Datta. Dayadhvam. Damyata.
Shantih shantih shantih



T. S. Elliot, line 434, "The Wasteland": Shantih. Repeated as here, a formal ending to an Upanishad. "The Peace which passeth understanding" is a feeble translation of the content of this word. per,

A mantra is salvation still
A mantra is salvation still
A mantra is salvation still

Jose can you see
Hop upon my knee.

Jenny in the outer pew
Scan my petition well
Hold it up for all to see
Adopt herein as a beginning to forever
Recite it then as a mantra of conception
To trampoline jump from shell a to z
Hoping against moping that Heisenberg
knows for certain.
Cast all the chips
For the prize
Behind the curtain.

Don't say so!
Don't you go!
Don't go in!
Please don't end!
Don't tell Ricky!
Wear my tie!
In your caw!
On the stro!
Don't snort blow!
Don't spill honey on the mats, suki yoko!


Mantras still will save
The jury's hung on Jah ruling.

Seen!

Back in the day, Hairy Puta, the One Impressed To Be A Credit To The Race, was struck with a rock above the eye, by those who were different than he, prior to his inquiry, "If the second law of thermodynamics applies to all things, what is it that props up Jim Crow?"

Thusly, he was taught, "There is but one particle wave defining all other projections of the law prismatically split into three thousands rays percieved as one."

If there is an causal action, there will be a corresponding reaction dividing a dichotomy between database believers, those who know, they think, and, hormonal faith-ers, those who are correct, they feel; as between the anabolic and catabolic, as between liberation and enslavement. The camp within which the entity falls is a consequence of works decisions; the ability to overcome Heisenberg's indecision is Planck's constant times the energy of shakabuku at the ceremony in the air.

When he, Drowned In The Spritzing Of Vatican Brain Washing, was taught "from each according to his ability, to each according to his need", he ran amuck, madly, with that ball, towards an ever receding goal-post, ignoring for too long, slipping and sliding in the blood of innocents spilt to prove the implausible spoken by fuzzy-cheeked elitist snobs in elbow-patched, tweed sports coats, Ashworth Diamond Jersey Vest sweaters, ascot ensconced necks, protesting just causes with the phrase, "If we turn our swords into golf clubs, they will play with us.". Who, while denouncing puppies, but not babies, gutted by fanatics, seek politically correct accommodation, through active inaction, with their murderers, by ignoring four of the ten.

As this brother among Amafricans, crossed burning sands, to enter a house whose monarch is "Goodwill", observe wryly, Hairy Puta, the dawg known as, "Stoneface", had beaten into him, "First Of All, Service To All, We Shall Transcend All!". even as, one of his brothers was pursued to incarcerate on trumped charges, another was assasinated while on noble crusade, and still, a third, whose piety was so beyond reproach, he was, in exasperation, smeared with sexual innuendo, by his foes.

After that time, the Scholarship-honored Shomon, smugly, arose at the conclusion of bell ringing and chant chanting to inquire,"So if this is as wonderful a space-time spanning lotus sound as you imply, why is Japan the only country to have, not one, but two atomic bombs dropped on its' head?

To agent provocateur him was given the transcendent reply, "if such mundane effects were caused by decisions made by it, what greater reasons lead to cause the important?"

Listen closely then, Hairy Puta, and understand that when the Multiple Diplomade Engaku considered all that he had been taught, all that he had experienced, and all the contradictions between them, he retreated from the Largest Fruit of Johnny Chapman City unto the City by the Bay of Saline, to ponder:

What cause, my gawd, did he make that:

I was engaged to marry the sprouted seed of the lower four worlds, the four horsemen of the Apocalypse, the Seven Deadly Sins, wrapped in Armani suit, bow-tied, soft spoken, broadly grinning like a Cheshire Cat, delivering spews that he claimed he learned directly on the Mother Ship, while parked in an alleyway of old Detroit. I bethrothed the lascivious hypocrite spawn of he who is a shepherd of the sheeple people and married a gold-mining mule from the Mile High Ciy.

I set myself to pioneer arid deserts where no one with soul would wont to follow.

I re-create as an essence of a trestle supporting a bridge across a gap between righteous consequences and unsupportable reward for drunken insane avaricious borderline narcissitic vehicles.

I prepare myself as a storehouse of Jeopardy questions when never a contestant presents with answers to give.

I reached for the stars but could not grasp the sand beneath others, let alone, my own, feet.

I grieve that Medicins San Frontieres rejoices that they feel so good taking money from Bono's Nobel's prize, given to him for his donation of the sweat of other faith-ers, as the recipients of their largess decay from, (SALID), acquired from the sanctimonious, abundant logic immunity disease, generation after generation.

I punish myself daily for my good deeds, while rewarding the inquities of others with entrance into Eden.

I hold fast to the notion that by personally sowing vowels and consonants as onomatopoeic mandalas:

* I will liberate we who are looked down upon; we whose words go unheeded, even though we sincerely try to be friendly.

I hold fast to the notion that by personally sowing memes of devotion:

* it will yield bouquets of udhumbara flowers more numerous than the grains of sand at Bay Five, on Jones Beach, throughout Amafrican worlds.

I stand bloodied but unbowed, in the cruel clutch of circumstance.

Thus, was satisfactory evidence given. The cause was by he.

Does it, then. not flow as a consequence, this Bodhisattva has devoted his being to the notion that, although like a blindman at an orgy, each moment to moment, surprising himself with his optimism, if he constantly strives along the rough side of the mountain broadcasting a salvation mantra, he will fulfill the fundamental instruction given him, which will lead all to the Supreme Way.

We cherish beyond measure
Our parents, teachers, and legislature
Who taught us to treasure
Substance over symbolism.

We are indebted to ancestors
Who for us prepared the way.
We are beholden to our progeny
Who, if not for them,
This saha world would hold no purpose.

Cuz plenty help comes from my friends
All the womens ride in my Mercedes-Benz.

We offer tribute to the soldiers, sailors and marines
We remember especially those who's deferral of lingering
In the excesses of the sentient world
Gave us the opportunity to squander our birthright.
Spill a little wine for our friends who are n'est plus,
especialmente, . . .

A mantra is salvation still
A mantra is salvation still
A mantra is salvation still

We hope to hell
This has not been in vain
For we give ourselves wholly
to science and it's practical applications
honmak kukyo to.

A mantra is salvation still
A mantra is salvation still
A mantra is salvation still

A mantra is salvation STILL
A mantra is SALVATION STILL
A MANTRA IS SALVATION STILL!


Welcome everybody to my life!!!
