This world, our experience of reality
Is not what it appears to be
There are hidden mysteries within it
Secret mysteries we know nothing about
Sometimes we touch these mysteries
And see beyond the veil
When reality doesn’t conform to our ideas
Or we experience some deeper intelligence
That takes us by complete surprise
But most of us take reality for granted
We think we know it
And we are separate from it
Born into it
And that’s that
A grave error has been made
An assumption
That the mind,
Reliant on perception of five senses,
Can know reality
But it cannot
And so here is the thing dear one
The eye that can see beyond
The wisdom that can see into
And the mind that isn’t made up
Can be open to the mystery
That is this world
The mirror in which we look
The miracle, the majesty, the beauty
And the vast intelligence
That we are inside and deeply part of
No conclusion must be drawn
But lived as awe and wonder.
