    About this ebook

    We see only a fraction of what is around us. Preoccupied with our internal conversation and with our problems and crises, we do not see most of Reality. Our perceptions are atrophied. At moments the veils can lift, and we can see directly, without concepts or conditioning. In those moments, the world becomes magical, stunningly beautiful and infinitely mysterious. While in this state, the simplest things can move us to strong emotion and wonder. The 77 poems in this little book are all about the struggle to develop and reclaim this awareness of the Miraculous. The living Cosmos is presenting Itself to us every moment. We must wake up and learn to see.

      The Rainbow Earth - Don Nix J.D. Ph.D.

      Dedication

      To my grandmother, Georgia Rice, now long vanished, who took a moment to tenderly touch my hair and face and look searchingly into my eyes to see who was there. I still remember this moment 65 years later.

      Dedication

      Introduction

      1 Rainbows all around us

      2 The Garden is within us

      3 The world is always fresh

      4 We stand on the shores of Immensity

      5 Have you ever cut your finger

      6 I’m spinning on the earth

      7 Life has its highs and lows

      8 Something fills my heart with joy

      9 Feel the potential in the air

      10 There are dark spots in my soul

      11 We are swimming

      12 Our general arc is upward

      13 Raise your head and celebrate

      14 I take the bow of my mind

      15 How can I draw myself

      16 Sophistication is the enemy

      17 The Cosmos is dancing

      18 I’m looking for the metaphor

      19 Moment by moment

      20 The well is deep

      21 Loveliness is all around us

      22 We’re moving toward the Formless Realm

      23 Open your eyes to wonder

      24 I am patiently waiting

      25 Give me a moment of Your time

      26 I cannot see why I’m here

      27 This is the first moment

      28 A titan of industry

      29 I am a confluence of forces

      30 Have I been all that I could be

      31 The world is arising

      32 Something is holding the world together

      33 I know that I’m a primate

      34 I’m surrounded by chimera

      35 The Buddhists call it mindfulness

      36 This is the feeling

      37 You cannot die into emptiness

      38 We are living in a rainbow world

      39 Something moves me through my day

      40 I want to dig deeper into myself

      41 If I was the only person on Earth

      42 I want to put
