The Gap.



“ Do you know how it is to stand
Astride the gap between the worlds?
One who has been there remembers:
The thought-free moment that is the door,
The one true sound that is the key,
The delicate perfection underlying and pervading everything in a fragile lattice-work of light,
The exquisite and blissful peace in that silence.” Mickey

There is a chink in the shutters through which the wind whistles.
 A crack in the curtains lets sunlight stream through like molten gold.
There is always a gap, a hidden doorway, a pause, a secret break in the space-time continuum.
Listen carefully, all ye prisoners of the mind: this is your escape route, your path to freedom, your gateway to  infinity.
In the mind, it is the space between two thoughts.
 In the sky , it is the gap in the clouds that lets you get a glimpse of  heaven.
In music, it is the silence between the notes.
In you, it is the Heart , the still center of Being.
This is the Here, the Now, the Self , the Tao that is the source and the substance of all things.
This is who you really are.
 Mind the Gap. Find the Gap.

Slip through  and be free.
