Wisdom for the Spiritually Bankrupt II




"Being is not a being, not God, an absolute unconditional ground or total presence, but it is simply the living web within which all relations emerge.

It is the constellation of art, science, politics, and religion within which a historical people dwells.

In our everyday lives we are rarely struck by our inheritance in existence as a whole, by the relation between our own individual being and all beings.
If the wonder of sheer naked spatio-temporal existence should strike home, it is a significant personal experience. "
