There are wonders out there!!
Or is it:
There are wonders in here!!
I loosen the fetters and let the journey begin, without ever leaving this spot.
My feet feel the stone beneath. I slide into the stone and enter the crystal palace. I pass through the glittering halls until I enter the throne room.
And there is the Mountain King. In his resplendent robes, silver beard and hair glimmering, he offers me a gift. The glowing crystal floats towards me containing the vastness of space; all of creation. The crystal enters my chest and warmth explodes…
I am there… yet not there…
Soaring! Soaring!
It is all out there… and in here…
Further and further out…
It is glorious!!
But suddenly a tug…
What is that?
An infinitely long connection to the me that never left. It is not my time!! I must return…
Faster than though…
I see me there below!
SLAM!!!
With a wrenching pain I return to the me that never left. Or maybe leave the inner me that I just visited. For a while I am we.
We are both here and there. “Reality” is just a transparent shield.
And then…
One again. Here again.
The greatest journey I ever took. And I never even left.
So the ultimate questions:
What is I? What is me? Am I the body that chains me to this “reality”?
Or am I simply the result of complex chemical interactions?
Or am I something else entirely?
The answer may not be revealed until that moment I choose not to return…
Get involved!
