Fixed within a defined reality, consumed with its own importance, where things matter and life is real.</p> <p>'Beyond' is the view of the Creator, detached and transcendent. Where all that has begun has already ended, nothing can assert its significance<!--break-->, for all is nil.</p> <p>There is also an Essence of both Within and Beyond, neither subject to the narrow view of a finite being, nor biased by the detachment of the Infinite. Neither created nor Creator, neither below nor Above, neither existence nor its absence.</p> <p>It is the Essence, both Beyond and Within all things. Beyond, because it needs no purpose. Within, because it nevertheless chose one.</p> <p>Both Within and Beyond breathe with that purpose, the purpose of their very being: That the Essence be revealed from Within.</p> Sat, 22 Nov 2008 12:00:00 EST
