At the Beginning there was Love.
Vastless, emptyless, infinitless Love.
It was Nothing that was. It was Something that
was not. The state of perfect equilibrium where
Everything simply was and therefore Nothing
ever could be. Darkness without light, happiness
without desire, fulfillment without energy,
emptiness without limits, silence without sound
- it simply was and therefore wasn't at all.
It felt like You did, in early stages of your
very own life, when You were floating about
in your mother's womb, blissfully unaware of
your own existence and quietly aware of your
own being.
If felt like You did, later on, when, after
uniting yourself with another flickering love
in a loving act, You lost you existence again
and regained your very own being. When every
cell of your body was filled with happiness
and love. When all your needs and desires vanished,
and calm, vast, all-embracing emptiness entered
your body and heart again.
It felt like the time You stood in the darkness,
watching dark, clear sky, full of flickering
stars. Remember? When You suddenly felt that
You do not belong "here", that You belong "there"?
That this vast, enormous, quiet and non-existent
darkness is where You came from and where You
will return?
Love, of course, was blissfully unaware of such
desperately conflicting state of affairs. The
screaming contradictions did not bother her
one bit, for there was nobody to contradict
them. Emptiness did not fill so empty when there
was nothing to fill it with. Absence of activity
was no so bad when there was nothing that needed
doing. Luck of identity was not a problem when
there was nobody to appreciate it anyway.
In fact, Love was one happy bunny. But one day,
one day, this perfect equilibrium was to be
disturbed by an intruder. Imagine disturbing
something so vastly calm, so enormously motionless,
so perfectly locked in its wholeness.
The Disaster was imminent. But that's in part
II
