| p111 | Living is not the loss of self but the discovery of the oneness of the self. Whole and complete in oneness there is no other. In newness it is seen that the old self was the other. Those who are alive but not living see otherness; the others of form, because they see themselves as form. Their lives are their bodies, their names, their roles, what they do "for a living" - the life of the physical one as it appears to the eyes and the senses of itself and others. Actions are consistent with perception rather than with the truth of the living Holy One, the action of the divine. |
