One Last Step and I’m Gone


The air is thick with smells and sights and sounds. Rays of the hot, July sun dancing on my cheeks as scores of bumble bees flow with the breeze from flower to flower. The field of knee-high corn sways with the top of the towering pine trees along the edge of the shaded pond. The echo of bullfrogs croaking creates a symphony in quadraphonic sound. Black crows perched and cawing above. With each step along the muddy path, I sink deeper into the heart of life. The clouds and the breeze, the sun and the trees, the birds and the bees are all one. The path and the pond, the frogs and their song, one last step and I’m gone — it’s all me!


Waking up in the morning, eating breakfast and driving to work — all happening to no one, and by no one! The universe is alive! And I am that life. The universe is functioning. And I am that functioning. There is no separate person in the body. There is only universal life living and functioning beautifully and naturally on its own - and I am That!
