Creation Myth

 

Only the rise and fall of feeling,

Only the still center

Loving.

 

Movement has no meaning when you’re larger than the world.

 

Do not try. Be.

Do not hope. Know.

 

Power does not stir itself. The

Still center feels no need.

Only the graceful rise and fall.

 

Power makes no effort.

Love makes no request.

 

The stillness takes less room than a pinpoint.

The stillness holds the universe in its breath.

 

Do not try. Be.

Do not hope. Know.

 

And only the rise and fall of feeling

Holds the still center

With the trembling hands of humanity’s

Always and never.

 

Being born forever

Is the cradling rise and fall enveloped by the

Stillness.

 

Each makes the other.
