Music, Math, Mystics

Have you ever noticed that there is very little to argue about in terms of interfaith dialogue when it comes to the mystical life? Is that not an indication of something?

Watch closely now. I’ll be coming ’round with the test papers in a minute.

A sampling of, This Embrace, by Kirtana. They’ve labelled it, “New Age”, but there’s nothing new about mystical union, about infused prayer. Most ancient of loves. I don’t care much for labels; when they itch, I cut them off.
“As I fall into this embrace
I feel your arms extending into space
While a love that will not rest
Blows through my open chest
And tears fall from my heart like rain
Like liquid love pouring from the slain
Glistening with grace
Christening my face
I’ll let this love carry me
Down stream like a petal of prasad
Uproot and ferry me
From the heart of confusion
To the heart of God”

Mystics: Ah, nice.
Math: I shall be sleeping with the lights ON tonight.
Music: Sometimes an angel whispers lyrics in an ear.. that’s all I can say. Exquisite.
How utterly cool!
Thanks, Carol and Beth. There’ll be more, hopefully at least once a week when I get organized. This will be a different side of me.
*ahem… hello? hello? We’re waitin’, lady…
Ahem. Either I’m not yet organized, or I’m not yet ready to reveal the “different” side of me. Ahem. Pass me that glass of white wine, will you?
