The Source - Part 1

We are all connected
to that mystical primordial source
which underlies and transcends
all time and space

It floods the consciousness
lifting it to a dimension
that lies beyond
thought and language

To some
the source is manifested as a divine essence
with an attribute of the holy
that instils a sense of awe and worship

To some
the source is the essence of the creative spirit
that seeks expression
in original works of art

The source lies beyond thought and language
As Lao-tse says:
He who knows does not speak
He who speaks does not know

We are all connected to that source
for there is a fundamental unity
of everything in the cosmos
of which we are merely a part

Now! Ain't that's the truth...handshake

One can speak! But do not know it/ the truth of it! And one does know it, / truth! But want speak of it!/ truth.

Also! It's a time to speak. And a time to shut up, to listen. To take heed!...handshake

Very Wise Comment!
We can KNOW the truth,
But cannot SPEAK it

Also, as you say,
There is a time to speak
And a time to shut up.
Unfortunately, some people do not know the difference.

Thanks for your comment!

Hi to you also!
Some seek to impose a form on this divine essence
through the creation of dogma and religion
Others transcend all religious dogma
and relate to this essence directly
Hello Socrates,

Completely agree with your writings. Being a true artist is being able to find an outlet for that innate divineness without the mundane dragging one down.

And empty vessels make most noise as we are all made of stars.

Thank you very much for your comment re the 4th verse:

Even though I wrote it, I was not sure how others would react to it.
Thank you for your validation of it.
No problem! I've always known that everything is related, though sometimes I need to drink some 'sauce' to realise it!

I prefer to call it intuition! Have a good day,x

Thank you very kindly for your comment.

"A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."
-Albert Einstein
