Ralph Waldo Emerson 1803-1882 ~ Van Morrison 1945- ...I'll Be Your Lover, Too

We live in succession, in division, in parts, in particles.
Meantime within man is the soul of the whole; the wise silence;
The universal beauty, to which every part and particle is equally related, the eternal ONE.
And this deep power in which we exist and whose beatitude is all accessible to us,
Is not only self-sufficing and perfect in every hour, but the act of seeing and the thing seen,
The seer and the spectacle, the subject and the object, are one.
We see the world piece by piece, as the sun, the moon, the animal, the tree;
But the whole, of which these are shining parts, is the soul.

Rabindranath Tagore 1861-1941 ~ Clutchy Hopkins ...Verbal Headlock

What language is thine, O sea? The language of eternal question.
What language is thy answer, O sky? The language of eternal silence.

Daniel C Matt ~ The Moody Blues (Justin Hayward 1968- ) ...Voices In The Sky

God is not static being, but dynamic becoming.
Without human participation, God remains incomplete, unrealized.
God needs us.
