What would light be without darkness as its opposite? How does one feel joy without also having known what sorrow is? Can there be love without the existence of hate? And yet, the negative template — “we are not that” — works as a unifying principle only as long as “that” is present. When the opposing force is removed, what then are we?
THEME Two Faces of the One God –the One Life Force
THOUGHTS FOR REFLECTION
1. Darkness is the womb of the light, nothingness the womb of all things.
For the darkness of waiting
Of not knowing what is to come
Of staying ready and quiet and attentive,
We praise you, o God.
If the shadow
is not seen
when the light
is shining
half of what is shown
goes missing.
