THOU ART BEAUTY!
Thou Art Beauty!
born beyond being…
rare and simple purity
fragile power — timeless mortality.
Complex simplicity, perfectly sublime:
undying yet reborn.
Serenity in action, uncompromised by time.
No dance can sway Thee
No psalm can say Thee
No sight can see Thee
No sense can be Thee
You Are that You Are
as ever You will be.
Thou Art Beauty!

INSIDE OUT
Vivekananda (12 January 1863 – 4 July 1902) was an Indian Hindu monk and chief disciple of the 19th-century saint Ramakrishna. He was a key figure in the introduction of the Indian philosophies of Vedanta and Yoga to the Western world. Nikola Tesla used ancient Sanskrit terminology in his descriptions of natural phenomena. As early as 1891 Tesla described the universe as a kinetic system filled with energy which could be harnessed at any location. His concepts during the following years were greatly influenced by the teachings of Swami Vivekananda.

HERESY
“Unless you make yourself equal to God, you cannot understand God: for the like in intelligible save to the like. Make yourself grow to a greatness beyond measure, by a bound free yourself from the body; raise yourself above all time, become Eternity; then you will understand God. Believe nothing is impossible for you, think yourself immortal and capable of understanding all, all arts, all sciences, the nature of every living being. Mount higher than the highest height; descend lower than the lowest depth. Draw into yourself all sensations of everything created, fire and water, dry and moist, imagining that you are everywhere, on earth, on the sea, in the sky, that you are not yet born, in the maternal womb, adolescent, old, dead, beyond death. If you embrace in your thought all things at once, times, places, substances, qualities, quantities, you may understand God.” ~ Giordano Bruno from his “Egyptian Reflection of the Universe of the Mind” ~ 1569
_______________________________________
Giordano Bruno (1548 – February 17, 1600), born Filippo Bruno, was an Italian Dominican friar, philosopher, mathematician, poet, and astrologer.He is best known for his cosmological theories, which went even further than the then-novel Copernican model: while supporting heliocentrism, Bruno also correctly proposed that the Sun was just another star moving in space, and claimed as well that the universe contained an infinite number of inhabited worlds populated by other intelligent beings. Beginning in 1593, Bruno was tried for heresy by the Roman Inquisition on charges including denial of the Trinity, denial of the divinity of Christ, denial of virginity of Mary, and denial of Transubstantiation. The Inquisition found him guilty, and in 1600 he was burned at the stake.

NO THING GAMES
Before the Beginning I was No Thing:
a Source of Awareness, of Being, of Universes.
Thought, ideas, emotion, objects and time are Things I conceived.
I agreed to play a game in which No Things became Things.
We played and betrayed ourselves
into an unrelenting void of shivering dark
and incandescent light.
In my basest state, a human being,
I am a Warrior of Survival:
a game that grinds every soul into dust.
I have lost the game. We have defeated ourselves.
The physical universe is not our home.
I, alone, am the Source of Serenity
in the Icy Flames of Eternity.
Remember who we are:
No Thing.
