Raja's Insight 
Dream 268 The Crying Buddha Contemplates the World
Buddha lives on in our hearts
And our minds
Every time we go to a temple
And contemplate the buddha
The buddha within is inspired
And one day
Perhaps soon
The real buddha
Will awaken
And come back
To the world
Perhaps he will come
With his brother Jesus Christ
And they will tour the world
Crying at the mess
That humanity has made
Of God’s paradise
And crying over the mess
That humans have left
For their children to clean up
And for the hatred and wars
That their search
For the true meaning of God
Crying copious tears
Thinking of all the things
That people have gotten wrong
Forgetting the core messages
Of love for one another
And a search for inner peace
Yes when Buddha comes back
He will wish
He was still lost
In the endless temple statues
Lost in the inner secrets
Of our minds and hearts

e Turning To Stone
A lesser man would have been turned to stone
by such a look,
such a dirty look,
disparaging
dismissive,
certainly worthy of a Gorgon,
but I survived it
I’m glad to say
though I still look uneasily
at the stone statues
commemorating the famous and infamous,
the religious idols,
the gargoyles,
devils and pixies
and I wonder,
was it the skill of the unknown carvers,
or was it just a look that did the trick?
Well, we’ll never know.
