This is hard?
This is easy!
This is the mind in its fulfilling moment
This is the unutterable beauty
The fullness words are empty before
And yet with word, with words, with words…
The spirit dying in wonderment
(O the beauty of this confusion!)
Seeing the fire aglow with one intrinsic nature-
Three candles with one flame
And you must forfeit self and selfhood to this unity
Call it the shining void because you can call it nothing else
Where grace descends and blesses all things
In the simple actuality of all things
It is here that you give a name to all things
And call the Infinite a spirit-
What other word do you posses
What verb might encapsulate this breath?

Cf. by Martin Burke : Reading Meister Eckhart II - This Singing Ground
