I ask: Kali Ma what do you want from me? SHE replies: There is no love waiting for you out there. Feel this empty place, this place of aloneness. Yes you are totally alone; your expectation is never going to be met from out there. No one is going to love you for you to know love. You don't have to do anything. You don't have to be anybody. You don't have to to do anything on your list of tasks. You don't have to fill your time with meaningful activity. Waste as much time as you like. Be ashamed of not doing, not achieving if you must. Wallow in this idea that you are a failure That everything you have done is for nothing. There is no love waiting for you out there. No, I want nothing from you. I want nothing from you for I already love you. You cannot give me anything for I already own your soul. You are mine and I am yours. I am in every cell of your being. I want nothing from you. This is not the love that you seek This is not a love of safety and sweet hearts. This love is unbounded. This love is the force that blasts mountains And triggers earthquakes. This love rocks your foundations and pulls you from the rubble of your ignorance. I want nothing from you. Can you not see the foolishness of your seeking? Wake up to your arrogance! Open your eyes to the love staring you in the face. Don't ask me what I want from you, It is already given.

Kali Speaks
