The Heartbeat of Creation: A moment to my Self
I have come to understand that it is not the heartbeat of life which moves creation, but rather the heartbeat of creation that moves life. Life is like that wonderful fire, that consumes itself to grow larger. And as long as life can consume itself, it becomes eternal.
Man is like life, in as much, as he can consume himself. When man consumes himself he becomes eternal. This is not like when a man becomes consumed by a hobby or passion, but when man has fully taken in all that he is, becomes one with all that he is, then he is eternal.
Creation is the means that beget this fire. As its heart beats, so too does this fire dance in it's rythm. It becomes one with this rythm, it consumes this rythm. The man who consumes himself stands before this dance, the rythm in his ears, the fire flickering in his eyes.
The man has consumed the fire and the rythm. He stands alone, with many. He is humbled by his exaltation. The man who consumes himself, the fire and the rythm, sees himself anew. And as his new heart beats, he consumes what he has become.
This man stands upon the edge of oblivion, there is nothing.

- This is a paper my dear friend and Spiritual Brother decided he wanted me to have the honor of publishing. This is one of his first outpourings into the spiritual public, and I plan to bring more of his work out when he's ready. This insight he decided was now ready for the world, and I am honored to present it. Your comments are welcomed.

Wonderful!!!!!!
But each one of us must learn to do this ourselves. One cannot teach the other.... or perhaps they can....
LOL

Please bring more of his work, or him to the group. Would love to meet him.

I have never yet met a man who was quite awake. How could I have looked him in the face?

Perhaps the Sage of Walden might have amended that line if he'd met your friend. I'd love to read more, or, as others have suggested, get to know the author.
