The One without a second

The One without a second
 
In the beginningless beginning
(before the dawn of time),
 
God woke up, an apparently disoriented newborn,
wondering for a few timeless moments Who He was;
 
felt a whim for exploration, then for light and vision,
creating the stars and sun to reveal and reflect His glory;
                        
followed up with a whim to create an other, a witness
to His glory and began the evolutionary chain
 
and there came along numberless others
to imagine Him, fear and love Him,
 
worship or ignore Him, call upon Him
by a host of names and images
 
and to come to know intuitively
that their separation from Him is illusory
 
and that in some timeless future they will come
to know Him entirely, first as the Beloved
 
and then as their very own Self – the Only One,
the Ancient One, the One without a second.   
 
O child of God, your connection to Meher
began before the beginningless beginning.
