The One

[Guest guest]

When the One Is.

When I remember who I am

Like an amnesia victim recovering her past.

When I am the vibrant force that fills this room,

Is the room and is the world and the universe.

I am as everything, that which was and always will be,

I am you and we are everyone and everybody is us

Simply all of us alone \And we are each other and nowhere anywhere is there

anything else but us

the one and only truth.

 

What is below, is like what is above

and what is above is like what is below,

for performing the miracles of the One

And all things proceed from the One.

 

United with the Ground of Being

We are all the God there is.

I am all ancestors.

All barriers dissolved

Resonance, radiance and stones

Glowing with a luminescence of their own.

 

I have the glory of the whole world.

Do I want it?

Who am I that doesn't want it?

I know that I am Everybody,

Loosing the little fictions that protected me from this knowledge of my own

Being, this loneliness.

 

Since I am All That There Is

I fear non-Being.

I pretend there is Something Else

I refuse to face who I really Am.

 

Losing my small wretched self, losing God,

I have lost all the other little selves as well.

I miss them very much. Perhaps there could be someone else.

Anyone else. And if there has been two of us - and we two were All That

There Was,

That would have not been so bad.

 

But there is no one else,

There is only the One.

Sacred flowers and radiant stars,

Ancient earth and soft prayer plumes.
