The Path to Spiritual Awakening

Nanne Nyander

 

The Path

My new book of Poems 

from the path to Spiritual Awakening,

 is coming out soon.

Here is a small preview.

*

Feel to be free,
free from all the disturbance in the mind, 
free from strange emotions, 
emotions and thoughts that I cannot pinpoint. 
They are moving around in space,
and that’s fine,
if they just hadn’t been exactly where I am. 
Is this how it is,
to be one with everything?

-Nanne Nyander

I move as the wind when nothing is moving, 
I’m moving too fast,
on an express lane that does not exist.
I move as my life depends on it.
I move so fast that I’m standing still.
I’m moving,
not moving,
feeling dizzy,
a feeling of losing the ground under my feet, 
losing track of time,
losing myself in the nothingness.
I move too fast,
and I don’t move at all.
I’m losing everything,
nothing is left.
Can this be right?
Nothing is left,
I’m nothing and so is everything else, 
nothing else.
Nothing can’t move,
I’m nothing.
Still,
I’m moving too fast.

Find the strength

 

Hope follows me wherever I go, 

but sometimes I can’t see it.

 Is it hiding?
Or am I moving too fast?

Remember who you are.
Everything is veiled by the interpretation of the mind, 

but I am strong,
I am strong enough to see through it.
Still, the mind sucks me in when I least expect it.
I feel totally helpless,
but I AM strong enough to resist.
I just have to find the strength,
I know it’s here somewhere,
Why is it hiding from me
when I need it the most?

I’m here holding your hand

Was it I, who walked this path before, 

or was it someone else?
In my mind there is no one, 

no one will search for awakening anymore. 

Do you think no one will find it?
I’m no one, I’m nothing,
I’m everything. 

-From "The Way Back Home" by Nanne Nyander

Farewell, my friend,

I’m here holding your hand,
 but I’m leaving.
 I’m going home.

I have overstayed my visit a long time ago. 
Now it’s time to let go,

time to move on, 
or not move at all. 
You’re the one moving, 
moving away from me. 
I’m here, 
I’m still. 
I’m not moving.

I’m here holding your hand saying goodbye, 
as I see you vanish around the corner. 
You’re still holding on to me,

or am I holding on to you? 
It’s time to let go. 
It’s time to go.

1st of Advent

 Nanne Nyander

The wanderer is waking up,

the journey has come to a stop.

No more searching,

the wanderer has woken up.

She woke up in my arms 

and now we are one. 

-Nanne Nyander

Sailing through the night sky, 

looking for you.

Are you still dreaming, 

or are you awake, awake to reality, 

awake to the truth?

Sail with me, through the sky, 

till we reach the end of time. 

We are going nowhere, 

and it’s a beautiful journey.

Peace

Peace by Nanne Nyander

***

I’m trying to orchestrate the world, 
so that I can be at peace.
It’s too overwhelming.
I have to find my own peace. 

-Nanne Nyander



***

I’m the warrior. I’m the peacekeeper, 

I’m the one that pretends that I’m lost. 

I’m the seeker who thinks she has lost the 

only thing she can’t ever lose. 

I’m the finder of truth,

the truth that was always here. 

I’m going nowhere.

I’m here. 

-Nanne Nyander

It’s time to wake up

 Nanne Nyander

**

What can I do,
when the planet is going to pieces?
What can I do?
What can I do,
when the world is going crazy?
What can I do?
How can I resist going to pieces,
how can I resist going crazy?
I’m grabbing for some sanity in an insane world,
to not add more insanity,
to stay in the light.
WAKE UP!

It’s time to wake up.

-Nanne Nyander

Am I here to find the truth, 

or is the truth here to find me, 

or are we one and the same?
