The second a consort lets one travel the path; Asea without a port, less the power ofContinue reading “Companion”

The Invisible

Unseen but apparent, harmony is invisible. The unseen is worth no words, and silence is golden Heartbreak and joy reveal the whole picture of creation, beyond image and likeness, and less than from nothing. I sit in silence to see clearly. We chant as one to focus well. Alone together, She…
