THE HEART is a symbol of DIVINE LOVE.
THE FLOWER is a symbol of NATURE'S BEAUTY.
Having arrived here at
THE PETALS OF MANY HEARTS
you will now experience, in written word,
a high expression of that
LOVE AND BEAUTY
through the voice of the Poet.
Though the flowers in a garden be diverse,
their fragrances blend in a pleasing and soothing
elixir of contentment and bliss.
THE FLOWERS SING AS ONE VOICE OF
LOVE AND BEAUTY.
Their purpose is but to provide fragrance and vision
for your blessing and enjoyment,
to bring serenity and prompt your further meditations of
LIFE AND LOVE.
If one were to envision
A Large Vase
Into Which Were Placed Many Of These Flowers
and then to envision that vase sitting
in the middle of A LARGE FAMILY TABLE
around which we all were seated-and then
if we were to gaze upon that LOVELY BOUQUET
we would find that it could be seen only from our own, limited vantage points.
We would not see the other side or the other angles--only our own.
In time, we would begin to gain a sense of assurance
and comfort from our individual viewpoints, our perspectives.
And further, if we were to always return to that same chair--
our particular view would begin to resonate most strongly as our experience of LOVE AND BEAUTY,
perhaps even a sense of rightness would develop.
Perhaps because of our familiarity, tradition and
accustoming to our sole vantage point, we may deem other paradigms as unreal, fantastical-and even, perhaps, make-believe, unrealistic or ‘wrong.'
But we are in community here, gathered around this family table awaiting our
HOST'S NOURISHMENT. And now the Host enters
and announces that before partaking of THE FEAST
we will play a round of musical chairs. Here at this table,
in this game there is only one change in the traditional rules.
No chair--no viewpoint--will be taken away. All are welcome.
In fact, more chairs may be added--all paradigms are welcome here.
There will always be room for more.
You are hesitant to play this game... Change seats? What? Change my vantage point? Well, it is the Host's table at which I sit.
You acquiesce and rise to take a new seat.
You make yourself comfortable and raise your eyes to look out at the others.
There, in amazement you behold, instead, THE BOUQUET!
Ah! you exclaim in utter wonderment. The bouquet! Why, it is different now! So beautiful! Look at those lovely flowers! SEE HOW EXQUISITE THEIR PETALS? Everyone at the table is expressing the same delight at
THE NEW BANQUET. THE HOST asks for a moment of silence before THE FEAST is served. Everyone becomes silent. There is a sacredness in the air. There is a sense of gratitude abounding here at this HOLY TABLE,
appreciation and understanding before unknown and unexperienced.
For is not this the very same bouquet which sits before us all?
Does it not smell just as fragrant from here as from there?
Are we not but now seeing it anew
through an expanded awakening of consciousness?
IS THE HOST OF LOVE AND BEAUTY NOT ONE AND THE SAME ESSENCE?
Is it not our Host's Bouquet upon which we are all fixated and being edified? Come! See and enjoy the words of the Poets
who desire to share their feast of understandings at this gathering of
THE PETALS OF MANY HEARTS It is our hope that our words and expressions may awaken you to new insight, new fragrances, new textures, new concepts of
DIVINE LOVE and NATURE'S BEAUTY.
We welcome you to stroll at your leisure through
OUR FLOWER GARDEN.
