Kaati/Introduction

This place is a dream.

Only a sleeper considers it real.

The dust of many crumbled cities
settles over us like a forgetful doze,
but we are older than those cities…

Humankind is being led along an evolving course,
through this migration of intelligences,
and though we seem to be sleeping,
there is an inner wakefulness
that directs the dream,

and that will eventually startle us back
to the truth of what we are.

Let the beauty we love be what we do.
There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground.
