I Liked The Solitude And The Silence Of The Woods And The Hills. I Felt There The Sense Of A Presence, Something Undefined And Mysterious, Which Was Reflected In The Faces Of The Flowers And The Movements Of Birds And Animals, In The Sunlight Falling Through The Leaves And In The Sound Of Running Water, In The Wind Blowing On The Hills And The Wide Expanse Of Earth And Sky.

I Am Rediscovering The Whole Sexual Dimension Of Life At The Age Of 86, Really. And That Also Means Discovering The Feminine. So The Whole Of This Dimension, Which I Had Been Seeking For A Very Long Time, Is Now Sort Of Opening Itself Up To Me.

In His (christ's) Surrender On The Cross All The Pain And Agony Of Mankind Was Concentrated At A Single Point, And Passed Through From Death To Immortality, There Is No Pain Of Any Creature From The Beginning To The End Of Time Which Was Not 'known' At This Point And Thus Transmuted. To Know All Things In The Word Is Thus To Know All The Suffering Of The World Transfigured By The Resurrection, Somehow Reconciled And Atoned In Eternal Life. It Was God's Purpose Which He Set Forth In Christ As A Plan For The Fullness Of Time, To Unite All Things In Him, Things On Heaven And Things On Earth'.

There Is A Beautiful Expression Of This In The Chandogya Upanishad: 'there Is This City Of Brahman, (that Is The Body), And In This City There Is A Shrine, And In That Shrine There Is A Small Lotus, And In That Lotus There Is A Small Space, (akasa). Now What Exists Within That Small Space, That Is To Be Sought, That Is To Be Understood.' This Is The Great Discovery Of The Upanishads, This Inner Shrine, This Guha, Or Cave Of The Heart, Where The Inner Meaning Of Life, Of All Human Existence, Is To Be Found.
