Genesis Dawn
Genesis Dawn: I Meet Myself
Non-fiction, hard cover, 260 pages

A candid and insightful glimpse into Brijendra's spiritual and sometimes humorous quest initiated in 1971 when he met his guide and guru, Swami Shyam, in Vancouver, Canada. In the course of telling his personal story, this book presents us with insights into the Vision of Oneness and the practice of meditation.

It is the story of the Canadian beginnings of what was to become Shyam Space, or the International Meditation Institute, of Swami Shyam. Through anecdotal drama, insight, and philosophy, along with indications about how to practice meditation, the reader travels the early, inner journey of those mostly young seekers of the Vision of Oneness.

“The other aspect of those initiations that I remember quite clearly was the astounding, unqualified love with which Swamji would talk to me and the utter unity I felt with him in that moment. When I was with him, I felt both that he knew me completely, more than I knew myself, and that he accepted me without reservation and loved me more than a human being could love. A human being might love me for this or that quality, but Swamiji quite simply loved me because we were one. It was not that he had to tell me this, I knew it, could see it and feel it. It was an acceptance and love far, far beyond even that of a mother for her child. It was complete and eternal, for it had no beginning and no end; and it existed independently of all qualities and happenings because it was the self-luminous being of the Self itself.”    Brijendra, Genesis Dawn: I Meet Myself

No Man But Spirit Pure
Poetry, soft-cover booklet (30 pages)

A poem expressing the awareness that our true nature is one, indivisible, eternal consciousness.

Himalayan skies absorb my head: through calm azure, white-roiling cumulus, thunder, lightning, midday heat, evening breezes, soft showers and hard hail...constant change, even when still. It is all Me. And Me, permeating all, unseen, unknown, and yet the very Self of knowing, I watch and know, an infinite Knowing Sky My Self; and through my form, sitting in the garden, the flow of verses, consciously fashioned to reflect the One in discovery and illumination, insight and glory, through metered verses, pentameter, iamb, enabling the unformed to undulate in form for sake of recognition and joy in knowing our own Self.

Excerpt from the Poem

No man but spirit pure, unborn you are,
Where all are your own forms of playing light:
One light alone, the Self of each being;
One vision alone, the sight of seeing.
You are the light of every form of light,
Then how can you be only body bound?
Recognizing your highest state of Self,
You, indivisible, pure consciousness,
You, knowing form, are never bound by form.
For body, mind, and world are never there
As separate, permanent forms of life;
But all is one life, one light of pure bliss.
You the bliss, You the everlasting Truth—
Then find that You, the essence of all this.
Knowing you are no separate sense of self,
You live your undivided Self, all bliss.
You love the forms of being that are You,
For they are none but You, your lasting Self.

Meditate, My Dear Mind
Poetry and Song

During a satsang (group meeting) in 1989 in India, Brijendra presented a copy of his long, meditative poem "Meditate, My Dear Mind" to his Guru, Swami Shyam. Swami-ji immediately began to read it out loud and after some time called upon Brijendra to read the rest of it. Fortunately, the impromptu performance was taped. Later, it was mixed with some music to create this recorded performance. Around the world, meditators have listened to and meditated upon this unique creation of poetry and song that reflects a lifetime dedicated to meditation and immersion in the Vision of Oneness.

Poetry written by Brijendra. Read by Swami Shyam and Brijendra. Music by Brijendra, Peeyush, and Mayank.
