The Way of Meditation

by Robert Gresak

Down the long ages
and on ancient and yellowed pages
the knowledge has lain unrevealed,
the secret firmly sealed.

In the East,
in high and secluded mountain fastness
far from clamour and roaring din
it had its sweet origin
a secret endorsed with the divine kiss,
the secret of enduring bliss.

The way of true and blessed peace
like cool and refreshing waters
pouring forth without surcease,
the waters of the spirits revolving wheel
to bring harmony and to heal.

In their mountain retreats,
from their holy seats
these adepts and mystics explored and trod its high way,
seeking by its subtle ‘magicks’
the demons of their lower nature to slay.

But then as time passed came Heavens decree
that all men should thus the truth see
and know the wonder of this inner reality.
Thus the secret began to be shown
to eager minds and hearts, in the West then made known.

The door thus unsealed and opened,
the steps along the way revealed;
and o, how many since then in the West
who have embarked upon the quest,
been so instructed, uplifted and blessed.

Thus is the pathway to mans true home,
to follow and know the divine poem,
to know truly, and be known,
to bypass intellect and brain
and his long lost divine heritage regain.

Robert Gresak was led at age 19 to meet an inspirational medium who became his spiritual mother and mentor. He became a member of her group and came in touch with the Masters of the Great White Brotherhood and their teachings. Since her passing over to higher service in the late '80s his spiritual gifts have tended towards article writing, a major portion of which of which lies in inspirational poetry.
In Robert's own words, "I do get the strong feeling at times that becoming a speaker as well lies ahead of me soon. I also hope soon to pursue further a book manuscript 'The Art of Living' which I started a few years back."
Robert lives in South Africa.
