[QUOTE="Archived_member15, post: 168439, member: 17438"] Gyani Jarnail, my brother what a stunning post I have discovered on returning to SPN today peacesignkaur Your words remind me so very much of Angelus Silesius, whom I have quoted before. Here are some of his epigrams that apply (arranged in my own order): "...[SIZE=3]Do not compute eternity[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]as light-year after year[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]One step across that line called Time: [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Eternity is here [/SIZE] [SIZE=3][/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Were I to lose myself in God[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]I'd find again the Ground[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]that held and nurtured me[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]before this earthly round[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Time is of your own making, [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]its clock ticks in your head. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]The moment you stop thought[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]time too stops dead.[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]At the end of that [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]which we call history[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]God is who IS: [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]for Him there is no past[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]nor future yet to be[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]No thought for the hereafter [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]have the wise, [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]for on this very earth[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]they live in paradise. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]All heaven's glory is within[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]and so is hell's fierce burning. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]You must yourself decide[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]in which direction[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]you are turning [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Unless you find paradise[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]at your own center, [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]there is not[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]the smallest chance [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]that you may enter. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]You are not real, Death, [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]for I die every minute[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]and am reborn in the next[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]into life infinite[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]The sage does not fear death. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]To often has he died[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]to ego and its vanities, [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]to all that keeps man tied.[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Saints do not die. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]It is their lot [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]to die while on this earth [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]to all that God is not. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]The vengeful God[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]of wrath and punishment [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]is a mere fairytale.

[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Why then call those [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]who make this earth a hell[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]the worldly wise?.[/SIZE].." [/SIZE] [SIZE=3][I][B]- Angelus Silesius (1624 - 1677), Catholic mystic, priest and poet[/B][/I][/SIZE] You have hit on essential, perrenial truths brother Gyani - the sacrament of the present moment, no thought for the hereafter. Just WOW! I've got to hand it to you bruv. Bravo! :sippingcoffeemunda: [/QUOTE]
