This brief poem was written almost 20 years ago shortly after landing on the sacred shores of Kauai. It was during a time of deep self reflection and bouts of enlightening truth!!! Honesty with myself cleans the heart and makes all things possible.
The emerald isle of Kauai -Mama Kauai- often requires new arrivals to do their “due diligence” to clear and elevate their vibration. This poem was written in response to the sacred call to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. Synchronistically I am revisiting these thoughts before the Light-Giving Ceremony of Diwali- to be held at Baba’s House on November 22, 2019~(6:30pm-8:30pm) We are preparing for a wonderful time of introspection in order to sort out the self and turn inward and upward to the Ever-Lit Light who has come to restore our Natural Beauty.
This piece from yesteryear is called:
~DECORATED~
Decorated by old emotions and an outdated style of “rustic resentment”-
an inner world of limitation has been formed -taking center-stage to the real, the
true nature of my soul.
Old emotions draped low have been cut on the bias of self-centered living-
Creating no possibilities for another’s point of view.
Newness enters slowly…deliberately…
Through the tainted glass –
While treasures of beauty and peace hover patiently-
Waiting to be revealed to I- the parched Soul.
Will I hear You? Will I know You?
Will I see You as You are….
While immersed in these clouds of illusion?
Must I keep coming up with the same conclusion about myself and others-
When seeing with an honest glimpse through Your eyes can change everything.
The gentle rain softens and cleanses.
A sense of fluidity enters.
Sorrow is washed away, the Bestower brings a taste of freshness-freedom-fortune.
Aloha Lovely Soul,
Thank you so much for coming to visit me at Enlightened Answers.!

It has been such a wonder to be tucked away in the Hawaiian Islands in the middle of the Pacific Ocean for 27 years. The past 20 have been on the oldest and most serene island of the Hawaiian chain~the northern most island of Kauai.
Most people don't realize that Hawaii is made up of a chain of seven islands, sometimes related to the seven chakras of the human body. As Kauai sits at the top of the chain; it is often called the "crown" of the Hawaiian islands.
Who am I? I am a spiritual elder and practitioner of Raja Yoga Meditation. I am a healer of hearts because I have surrendered to the Almighty who has healed mine. I offer Spiritual Empowerment sessions that assist with building trust, faith, and strength in the Self.
For each of the past eight years, I've had the wonderful fortune to have traveled to northern India to the Brahma Kumari World Spiritual University on Mt. Abu, Rajasthan.
This wonderful place is also called Madhuban, which means Forest of Honey. It is a pilgrimage place dedicated to the Remembrance of God; a place to attend classes, a place to meditate by yourself or with many others; and a wonderful place to commune with like-hearted souls. It is an exceptional container reserved for souls who wish to live according to the highest codes of conduct. It is a place designed for souls to have a deep, rich, and loving meeting with the Supreme Soul. My annual journeys here have enriched my life immeasurably, beyond words.
Who am I? I am a peaceful soul who honors the peaceful soul of you. I am a lover of Truth and hope that you are able to glean deep soul answers in these writings which I , who once who was so lost and who is now found, shares with you.
Take the jewels that touch you, make them your own, and share them, for giving and receiving is a good part to play at this time of transformation of souls and of the earth.

Many Blessings from My Heart to Yours,
