What if the beginning
(of manifested life, that is)
was not a beginning at all,
but a continuation?
A new cycle? A new birth?
Could a universe have parents?
Well, why not?

What if everyone of us
was our own universe?
Everyone moving freely
through the openness of the void,
endlessly encountering, passing –
each passage book-marked
as a memory in the infinite mind..

What is history but silent images?
What is time but memories?
What is space but feelings
connecting mind with mind?
What are concepts
but collections of memories?

Apart from our memories
we are as wandering stars
casting light
throughout infinity’s domain;
as comets probing beyond
even the depths of eternity
ever in search of a new self.

How very beautiful! I love your thoughts.

This is just after my heart.

Oh my gosh...dear friend you prepare a feast with your words that feeds all my senses...Ah yes...look, question, answer with such inner wisdom...I feel the longing I have missed since not reading your words...you make the mind and soul reach out and wonder at the infinite...I love that you make my mind and senses open up and see what is right before my eyes....Stunning write, WindWalker...I love it...**big hugs**
