the vessel

By mysticventures

Unto the vessel

From god's breath was born

The essence of life

Experience -

In form


Into this vessel

God poured his soul

Individual -

Yet still

Part of the whole


Thus holds the vessel

God's light

And much more

A toast to the truth -

Is what this vessel is for











I am but a vessel

Holding the elixer

Of god consciousness

    and what is truth? - except that which one believes to be so!

  • A former member wrote: One truth plus one truth plus one truth equal too many truths. We must all decide. We must all choose. Truth is where you find it. May you always find it.

    *Disclaimer* -the use of the term 'God' and the pronoun 'his' are not representative of any faith or religion - and are used metaphorically to enhance the thought and flow of this piece
