Hi Joe,

I would like to share a poem I wrote in 2001 after experienced a dreamtraveling into Seven transitional intervals of the astral plane. I did wrote the story about that amazing experience. The introduction to the Universal principals, about which years later I learned from HPB "Secret Doctrine" There is only one Universal truth. Theosophical Network helped me to find out, a theosophy is the name of my faith. Thank you for that.

Dreamwalker

There was a dream, I thought is a dream

But it was something else very bizarre and extreme

I was somewhere I got shot and killed

I saw myself dying feel pain in my heart it was real

Watching myself dying from the above

And feel weightless, fragment, transparent

Flight faster that light I went somewhere and saw indescribable stuff

Then I realize where I was and the things I have learned

Even for me was too much and too overbearing

I had no fear something guided my mind told me not to worry

I felt her transparent presence explaining the story

She helped my brain to processed transitional stages

Without of her couldn't pass this test for a human being is too outrageous

She told me than place where we at called astral level 7

Its a place where a soul going after you dead, look like a fragment busy train station in heaven

There some other stuff I saw in different stages

Souls of the bad people fragmentation, some lost some suffer locked up in invisible cages

Some of the things just have no verbal, no words for explanation

I learned a lot how human past lives effects on the soul fragmentation

I am better keep to myself it was so amazing

If I tell this to anyone in the Earth they would think I am crazy

Shouldn't supposed to be there until I am died

But she assisted this travel and now I know how to make it right

It was not easy way to come back to the ground I didn't awake

I was pulled, felt like after drown in deep waters of river or lake

Gasping for breath and felt after a little bit dizzy

I was lucky to come back at all after travel so far, it wasn't that easy.

2001

Here is the Invictus Poem

 

Invictus             William Ernest Henley. 

 

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

In my personal (with birth time accuracy) astrological reading stated for today: "You've been temporarily endowed with superpowers. The ability to turn mere sounds into poetry, music and mesmerizing stories will be yours for the next 24 hours or so"

And  I decided to  open my poetry book and share a few poems.

P.S. Once again I expressing an apology for my incorrect sentencing or grammar. For people who haven't read my writings: I am sorry for a poor English skills. Originally from Russia, I never have a chance go to American school. All I leaned is from listen American people, asking many questions and memorized the words. I know that this is not nearly enough, but it never stopped me from writing by ears like I writing notes.

Some people asked, why don't do in Russian language (in which I graduated high school with excellence) and just translate after?

Well, I am listening, speaking, reading and dreaming in English language. While writing , I'm transmitting energy into the words. The same way an energy impacts my artwork and other things I do create. I hope you like it.

Thank you for let me share.

Olga

 

The Thoughts of a Higher Mind

 

My thougts are make me who I am

I don't want to become someone else

Being tired and owerwelmed

Hear what the inner voice tells:

 

Leave no space in my brain

For self-pity and blame

Keep away for attraction

Leading to self-distraction

 

Turn a false expectations

Into true inspirations

Useless memories of the past

Brush away like a dust

 

Stop small and negative thinking

Open what's underneath, deep and wise

My Higher Mind, Please Arise

September 2011

 

This one was inspired by the Spiritual Awakening. It is truly amazing one of the kind feeling.

 

Seven Equal One

 

Once as a warrior

Once as a Wife

Twice as Atlantis at the birth I've arrived

This time I was touched by the Divine Light

 

The light is healed me and saved my life

Until the time for departure to the other side

 

The God has spoke through Me from the Heaven

And showed Me the Worlds divided by Seven

 

Seven is equal the One

As the daylight equal to the sun

 

January 2011

 

THE WISDOM QUEST

We are a grains of sand

Compare to Infinite Space

But is important what 'we're done

In present life, time and place

Remember that no matter who you are

You are born to reach your best

And after that will travel far

To undiscovered Universe

My time is come for Wisdom Quest

It is the lifetime final test

One part I passed and ready for the rest......

May 2010

My Forever Prayer to the Universe

I am pray to never go there again

I had a tough time reaching inn to understand

I have to feel the death to find the answers why I've been born

I have to fight so many demons, they're tearing me apart in karmic storm

Until my lifeless soul saved by the Divine light and then transformed

I was a non believer, a very stubborn one

Until the Light arise

And there is nothing wrong in my eyes

An hour after that I though watching the rising sun

If anyone convince me – The sun is fake

I will admit that faith in God was my mistake

But only if you'll proved it

By taking the sun from the sky and hold it in your hands

Until you'll do that, my faith in Absolute Divine will never ends.

Not many people will see what I've seen, feel what I've felt, and be what I was

Don't ask me why, don't ask me how, don't ask.......... because

I was cursed ,I was blessed, I was saved, I was healed

It opens my mind to find

A higher wisdom inside,

And I did, and I do, and I will

It is make me stronger when I'm weak, heals when I am ill, comports when I’m lonely, inspires when I’m depressed, soothes me when I cry, guides me when I lost, make my world when I need And comes true when I wish
