Guest guest Posted November 17, 2002 Report Share Posted November 17, 2002 11/16/02 "Masks" I was walking with the baby when an extremely grotesque image came into my mind. It was not the first time, and I could recall a couple of these appearing when Ananda was an infant as well. In the past, because the flashes were so troubling and obviously bizarre, I'd just abandoned them and moved on. This time, however, a spontaneous inquiry ensued: "What IS that?" The answer did not come in words, but if it did, it might have sounded something like this: Pure Love in Disguise. "How can this be?" I wondered. "Can I know it in my bones, in my gut, in my experience, that this is the truth?" Immediately the answer came: Yes. Absolutely, Yes. Right then I saw that there was no reason to ever go on in my mind about how ugly ANY impression may appear to be, no matter how frightening, or cruel, or horrible... because I knew it was possible that whatever came my way at any given moment could be experientially recognized as nothing but a dark and scary costume being worn by Love Itself.
