God the Beloved
God the Beloved
My attraction is toward God as Knowledge Itself.
That’s the territory into which my wits carry me daily
as I collect the world’s trifles – surmise, expound,
opine and record my clever gleanings and commentary,
the neti, neti of my journey toward
the ultimate abandonment of mind –
my heart not being in this quest,
my heart being engaged instead
in a quest for the all-merciful,
eternally benevolent God the Beloved.
O child, while your head tries to figure it all out
your heart is leading you steadily home.
