God is Pressure

Posted on March 24, 2021

“Those who have penetrated furthest into the Unseen have given us the symbolic descriptions by means of which we may turn our minds in the direction of the Absolute, even if we cannot reach it. They have spoken of the Negative Existence as Light: En Soph Aur, the Limitless Light. They have spoken of the First Manifest as Sound: “In the beginning was the Word.” I remember once hearing a man, who was an adept if ever there was one, say, ‘If you want to know what God is, I can tell you in one word: God is pressure.'”

Dion Fortune, Mystical Kabbalah

 

 

God is pressure.
The inexhaustible expanse
condensing into being.

God is gravity.
Whose embrace weaves galaxies,
constellates planets to the Sun,
and holds all beings on Earth.

God is love.
Delivering His beloved Son
into the guts of creation,
so that this ravenous humanity
might know the freedom of a loving heart.

God is nothing.
A living, breathing life
beyond life.
A rhythmic swell without end or beginning.

God is the crystalline geometry of music,
and the unfathomable
pureness of sound.

God is fire and light,
father and mother,
God is breath- reception and surrender.
Every moment.
Here and now.
