– St John of the Cross

What you have come to is nothing known to the senses.

– Heb 12:18

Be like men waiting for their master to return from the wedding feast, ready to open the door as soon as he comes and knocks.

– Luke 12:32 –

Be still and know I am God.

– Psalm 46:10

Be still and know… That Which Is… quite beyond the reach of the mind and senses.

Mind and senses still… we know with our being… through being… ground of being… primordial being.

As for man, his days are like grass, he flourishes like a flower of the field, the wind blows over it and it is gone and its place remembers it no more. (Ps 103:15)

God is our being, and in Him we are what we actually are. Any experience of a self other than this must be destroyed. (Epistle of Privy Counsel)
