This Week@ACPE: May 18, 2020
| We began as a mineral. We emerged into plant life and into the animal state, and then to being human. And always we have forgotten our former states, except in early spring, when we dimly recall being green again. That is how a young person turns toward a teacher, how a baby leans toward the breast, without knowing the secret of its desire, yet turning instinctively. So humankind is a being led along an evolving course through this migration of intelligences, and though we seem to be sleeping, there is an inner wakefulness that directs the dream. It will eventually startle us back to the truth of who we are. |
