Daylight
by Bobbi Lurie
perceive it everywhere
all comes out of it
all is made of it
through the mind: light
through the heart: love
existence is its own definition
Pythagoras: number 3
1. God
2. Logos
3. Beginning: creation
belief in duality holds ego together
becoming a complete human being
an organ through which
universe can experience itself fully
complete human being
the way the universe experiences itself
completely
make the eye
completely
transparent
give the world
an experience of
dimensionality
vaiety
colorflavor
like the whole universe is behind you and you are
like a window through which it sees
not to free ourselves
from suffering
but become the window
through which it sees
