"Where did I come from? Where did you pick me up?" the baby asked its mother.
Half laughing, half crying, and grasping the baby to her breast, she replied, "You were hidden in my heart as its desire, my darling. You were in the gauze of my childhood gaze. And when with clay I made the image of my god every morning, I made and unmade your bed. You were enshrined with our household deity. In his worship I worshipped you.
"In all my hopes and all my loves in my life, in the life of my mother, you have lived. In the lap of the deathless spirit who rules our home, you have been nursed for ages. When in girlhood my heart was opening its petals you hovered as a fragrance about it. Your tender softness bloomed in my youthful limbs like the glow in the sky before the sunrise. Heaven's first darling, twinborn with the morning light, you have floated down the stream of the world's life and at last you were stranded in my heart.
"As I gaze upon your face, mystery overwhelms me. You, who belong to all, have become mine. For fear of losing you I hold you tight to my breast. What magic has snared the world's treasure in these slender arms of mine?"
from Transformation of Mind audio CD by Christopher Franke and Deepak Chopra

| I feel the breath of reality. It beckons without disturbing its own stillness. And to know what it whispers I must become just as still myself. |
