Radiance All Around Us

Moon and Venus, October 15, 2001

"This is it. That's all it is. You have gone past duality and the realization is, I was there all the time. It's just a transformation of the eyes. Like that saying in the gospel according to Thomas, 'The Kingdom of the Father is spread upon the Earth and men do not see it.'  See it! The radiance is all around us here, right now. This is it. And the multiplicity is unity in a wonderful sort of display."
