Life is a mystery. Only poetry can scratch its surface…
Find below a poem which I found in the Internet and which illustrates in the most beautiful way why we may be resistiant to the idea that we are all part of the One many philosophers and mystics talked about…
Well, no more talking. Enjoy.
Mystery Eternal
Pearls are born
of irritation
Diamonds are born
from pressure
Resistance to change
will leave no growth
but surely a call
to return
again and again
to learn the lessons
that bring us
to awareness
of the Light
that overpowers
all shadows of doubt
It is our mind
used in selfish ways
that brings the
darkness within
as we cannot believe
that we are all
part of this
by Cecil B. Lee
