SO BEAUTIFULLY PUT

From out the white-fire core
of the individualization of the God flame,
the eternal Presence declares the geometry of self-realization.
A God is born.

And out of that God, self-awareness,
as a ball of identity,
is thrust into the planes of Matter. 

The ball, a microcosm of selfhood
flung from far-off worlds,
is an extension of the Great Spirit.

It is an extension of God-selfhood,
of self-awareness in other dimensions.
The ball is a microcosm spun out of the great Macrocosm
of all-pervading consciousness that men call God. 

The ball of self is suspended in that consciousness,
tethered to its source by the thread of contact
that is called the crystal cord.

And so the ball of identity, like a child’s toy
bouncing from an elastic string tied to a paddle,
is free to move in time and space,
yet ever subject to the movement
of the hand of the Great Law that governs
its comings and its goings in finite dimensions.

The many layers of awareness that surround the soul—

the energy fields of mind and memory, emotions, feelings, physical form,

form consciousness, percepts and precepts—

have so polarized selfhood through an outer awareness

that this outer awareness has become a synthetic self

diametrically opposed to the Real Self.

And the soul that was intended to mirror the Spirit

has become a mirror for a world of whirling energies

unlike its original reality, hence unreal. 

The soul has become a lost identity, 

lost in time and space –

It must be found again.

So beautifully put!
