In the light there lies the seeing Opening of given the giving of the open Time has shed its garments strewn aside Standing naked unadorned unhidden before thee And still you hesitate no more open eyes the Sun does also rise should you choose to define it Within your hand outstretched you find One and All things have no difference in knowing Themselves are perfectly content home with all and any others ("Could the words 'Made in God's image' possibly refer to anything as mundane and inpermanent as a physical body: which by definition is born, dying.")

Do you have an image of God? Do I think that I look like Him? No I dont think the "physical" is what is meant by image...if it was a physical thing we would all be mirror images of each other dont you think? |

That and more is what the quote attempts to convey. Perhaps better said: we are spiritual creatures having a physical experience. AT |

Am going to ponder this one........ with a question......"Does the quote relate to the poem?" "The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new. Socrates |
