Meaning!
It churns up from the depths of our minds;
It is a song that sings out the lyrics of life;
It is the music of the Sacred;
It belongs to the primary nature around us;
It is neither religion nor faith; belief nor conviction.
Yet, we fail to understand it.
It is distracted by addiction and consumerism,
desire and materialism.
The Sacred is the essential quality of life.
It can be found in any form.
A small stone or a mountain,
the first cry of a newborn child,
and the last gasp of a dying creature.
It can be present in a loaf of bread,
waiting to be eaten, on a table,
in the words that expresses its taste.
The remembrance of the Sacred is like a central note in life.
Without this remembrance,
something fundamental to our existence is missing.
Life lacks a basic nourishment.
A depth of meaning.
