WHEN YOU ASK THE QUESTION, YOU BECOME THE QUESTION

(ask it, and become it.)
"I live in a Galactic Body. I am at home in this universe, an eternal citizen of the Cosmos. In this moment, I inhabit the mystery of individuality, of matter - the vastness of inner space, velvet darkness and infinite shimmering particles of light - this very body of atoms, molecules, substances yet to be discovered and named. Energy pulsing in blood and nerve, in bone and skin, in eyes and lips and breasts. The mind-blowing fact of consciousness, of awareness permeating experience, of love.

This is my body, and yours. Our essential Nature. The marriage of spirit and flesh."
