Lying Fallow

 Don't let outer noise

drown your inner voice!

Masud R Khan, Hidden Selves

'Lying Fallow' -  a state in which  our inner voice becomes audible,

the voice with which we sing the song of our lives;

'Lying Fallow' - 

    not one of Inertia

    listless vacancy

    or idle quietism of the soul

    nor a flight from harassed purposiveness and pragmatic action!

Lying Fallow -

is a transitional state of experience

a mode of being that is alerted quietitude

and receptive wakeful lambert consciousness

Lying fallow -

is how we begin to nourish ourselves.

how we begin to take responsibility for ourselves

against development    of narcissistic personality style

one that makes myriad outward demands on the world

with little comprehension of the necessity of the responsibilities

for an inner relation to its own self!
