I find that just resting in the "pure space" (which I call The Silence, some call Awareness), is what allows me to have a felt sense of that which is longed for in the Heart - The Presence of the Divine Beloved (beyond/behind the "lovers")...

But neither can move past<br />the other, and it changes back to World."<br /><br />Dean Kellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11391614363610258561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1152631704093093461.post-50982992605529524632019-09-04T10:34:10.491-06:002019-09-04T10:34:10.491-06:00Yes...

It remains no matter how much we "know" in our heads... my experience anyway...Mystic Meanderinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09746429719911446865noreply@blogger.com
