As you walk around the lush green flowering grounds,you feel alive,
as if every inch of your skin is tingleing.Your senses seem sharp as you seem to hear the birds talking,and hear what they are saying.
You find a book sitting on a marble bench.You pick it up and carry it down to a
fountian that has a wonderful statue of a woman, letting a dove go free from her hand.
You rest by the cool water of the fountian,and open the
worn silk covered book. Its pages fraile and yellowed with age.
The first page starts with this............
For Reconciliation with the Universe
In the dark of the Moon when stars show clear
Go where no houses or lights appear
Where hills are low and grass grows high:
Lie on your back beneath the sky
Fix with your gaze the brightest star
Speak this aloud, to answer its fire.
Lower than grass
My light began
Into the heavens
Soon it ran
Here between Earth
And space I shine
My fallen dust
The twin to shine
Star that I was
Star that I am
Star I shall be
My name is human
Stand then, and tread the living air,
Ascend the vision's open stair,
Rise and mirror the cosmic face,
Infant of galaxies, prodigal Sun,
Resume this title:
All and One.
Go back to the Garden Gate
Go futher on the grounds
