Christopher Hansard:[ time]

time has its own design

it moves according to the cycles of its own momentum

and sentient life is battered by it

unless consciousness is lifted up

and harnesses the fluctuation of time

for within time is light sound and consciousness

like a magician’s hat

time writes its own rules

unless you learn how to become timeless

in the worlds of time and space

Christopher Hansard:[ the times of change and rememberance]

The times of change and rememberance

are coming now, too soon, for some

and charm and policies of government

will not allay their calls,

voices full of shrieking winds and harpy media sirens

rushing to announce doom and gloom and the end of domestic consumerism

whether by sea or land or broken promises

the land will shift by ten degrees

and what was desert will desirable sea front property

and oceans wills cover the agricultural past

electronics and communication will be reduced to what they are

and time will have dominion over the working day once more

sunset and sunrise will be understood for what they are

seasons will return as will equinoxial wisdom

and community and living

will be dependent upon the individual

Christopher Hansard:[ allow]

Can you allow other people

to live their lives

without seeking to change them

through your opinions, words and thoughts

people like thoughts

crowd around the

a point of fusion

and adhesion

what could that point be?

it is the point within everyone

where

identification becomes confused

between

the thinking self and the observing self

Christopher Hansard:[ what is your world made of?]

what

is your

world

made of ?

habits, impressions, beliefs,

convenience

routines and ambitions

hopes and desired outcomes?

what if these all evaporated

due to external events?

how many layers of varnish

on your life protect between

what you currently have

and sudden events outside of your control?

Christopher Hansard:[ Koran Burning]

The Christian pastor

who plans to burn

the Holy Koran

is a fundamentalist

of the worst kind

he seeks to use religion and  a sacred text

as a pretense for racism

and hate

fundamentalists like him

are against nature and humankind

for all such people worship at the temple of intolerance

what should you do about this?

send him love and care

but put water on the fire of his hate

burning the koran sets a fire

deep within the hearts of us all

we each will hold a cinder

of that shameful fire

Christopher Hansard:[ you are the ecosystem]

you

are the

ecosystem

the mycellium

and the fruit

your thoughts, actions

deeds

directly affect and influence

both the natural and man made worlds

………………………………….

the world is full

of amazing people

heroes, heroines,

people who have triumphed over great odds

you are one of them

yet unrealised

whatever you have achieved

it is but a shadow

of who you really are

you are the

ecosystem

a flowering pea

a new language

an undiscovered dimension

a planetary force in human form

Christopher Hansard:[ living your life]

When you feel that you alone can not make a difference

to the way the world is going

stop

and live your life as best you can

being true as you are able

to your self

if you do not know who you are

then pause

and be as good a person as you can

and then your Self will know you

by way of an introduction of peace and grace

through the gift of everyday living

Christopher Hansard:[ language]

language

is a crucial structure

is the transformation of

human consciousness
