Sentient Being

Sentient Being
If “sentient beings are composed of the five aggregates, or skandhas… matter, sensation, perception, mental formations and consciousness” ….
Let us play with this Wikipedia definition and ask these questions:

How aware are we of our physical presence and how does that matter?

How conscious are we of our 5 senses, are we using them and are there more?

How do we perceive things and is it as acknowledgement, acceptance or judgement?

Are our mental formations learned or based on experience, imagination, meditation?

Is our consciousness our ability to be in an awakened state tuned in to all that is?
Our answers will relate to how we practice sentient beingness

The Cavern

The Cavern
the cavern can hold
its treasure of gold
alive and protected
cherished and respected
honoured by all
as we answer the call
to be love
our hearts hold such wealth
they’re vital to all health
pulsing and extending
sharing and tending
yes even mending
that which is broken
to become the awoken
with a touch of gold

Hallelujah!

Hallelujah!
the release then the joy
of having arrived
all thoughts have dissolved
as beingness has thrived
no longer a worry
nothing missing at all
knowing the wholeness of being
we have answered the call
living the love
without consciously thinking it
trusting the flow
surrendered, we’re part of it
simply continuing
continuing to be
loving … so loving
fun-loving
and free
Hallelujah!
