Cave of Brahman – a poem by Sage Cohen

Cave of Brahman


Enter the clearing
of yourself. See beyond
seeing how far you reach.

Relax into your divine 
proportion. Held in the 
absolute arms 

of eternal amplification 
as you have longed to be held
as you have always been held.

Here where you pulse
your ocean of light
first empty the cup 

until there is no cup 
then rise high above
your own horizon.
