Sitting before my altar in meditation and absence of thought, I am fulfilled with the burden of the World and the current human condition. This brings me great sorrow. With the next breath connected to the One Mind, I experience the impact of Universal love, joy and peace. Suddenly, tears of elation and gratitude stream down my face. I realize that I am fortunate enough to experience this unified sense of wholeness. Simultaneously experiencing very different emotions, I ponder this state of consciousness and what it means? Tiphareth comes to mind. I smile and realize that I am free. Free from the stagnant consciousness that imprisons many. I celebrate this Emancipation! I believe I have reached a milestone in authentic alchemy. I recognize it is my purpose to help those seeking, out of bondage, and into the realization that this state of love and grace not only exists, but is attainable for all to partake. It is my vision someday we will truly live as one. Won’t you join me?
