In the Beginning

There is a center that is no center.

It both exists and does not exist.

It has no beginning and no end.

It is everywhere and it is nowhere. (now/here)

It unfolds in time, but it is not bounded by time.

It has many names, God/Tao/The Great Mystery/Wakan Tankan

but it is nameless.

The illusion of being separate from this center is

the birth of self consciousness.

To transcend this illusion is The Way of Things.
