Let There Be Light

How can there be creation with no eye to behold it?

By GP WalshPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

It all starts with light

How can there be creation

With no eye to behold it?

No light to reveal it?

Hence all creation begins with light

Not the waveform flying through empty space

But the eye that sees this moment

The inner eye of your soul

The radiating light of illuminated Spirit

The Mind of inner knowing

The sun goes looking for darkness

She finds nothing but Her own emanation

So how can you, the light of awareness

Think you stumble through the darkness?

You yourself are the light

You yourself are the refuge

You yourself are the luminous

Perpetually and timelessly

Let there be the light you are

About the Creator

GP Walsh

Spirituality is an inquiry, not a belief system. It is the capacity to look for truth, not as some set of behaviors or philosophies, but as direct experience. My only religion is love. My only politics is peace.
