The essence of all forms

Bereft of attributes, Self is living light, which is our true being, shaped as God Himself, in a realm outside space-time, where we shine bright and so recognising this as our true Self, we weave our way through life in drunken delight, knowing what’s impulsed will unfold by itself. God dwells in the Self and Self dwells in the heart, which is why illumined living is an art.

I’m delighted that you find value in these words, Hiya. They are inspired by the different Upanishads which I’m going through these days but as a disclaimer, what I read is ‘prejudiced’ by by own spiritual experiences and as such the reader must determine their own path.
