Energy of Presence
The
energy of orgasmic Presence pervades every atom in the universe.
Each
photon, each electron, even the gravity waves at the heart of the quark
in a star-forged proton, are permeated by a Presence whose energy is
infinite.
What prevents us from experiencing this ananda, this
bliss of Presence, is
our mind's anxious habit of inventing time, the
illusion of a past and future.
Through meditation, we allow these
mental images of past and future to dissolve. Then we can see the simple
miracle that mystics of all the great traditions saw: "God is creating
the entire cosmos fully and totally in this present now, a now which
always and without end is itself new." (Meister Eckhart, 12th C.)
The peace and sanity of the world depend on whether humanity will take this
gentle step, and make this radical shift, into Presence.
