There’s no two-ness in God the mystic said, *

No two-ness in God at all.

All the things are as one in Jesus Christ, +

All things are as one said Paul.

 

Are divisions delusions made by minds

Consumed with their stress and pains?

Though the surface presents divided forms

Beneath them the One still reigns.

 

All our systems converge in mystery

Embracing our every thought.

All the species share common ancestry

Which groupings may well distort.

 

Be transported and yet be grounded well

To glimpse the beyond that’s here

Through enlightened incarnate ways of life

Like Christ whose bright robe we wear.

 

* Meister Eckhart (1260-1328)

+ Colossians 1:17 “In him (Christ) all things hold together.”
