Magic of meaning

You lose essence when you try to make sense - the essence which permeates through the poem, the painting, the novel, the film. It shall reveal itself to you in its own way, it its own time - all you ought to do is to be - be aware, be naked, be actively receptive. 

 

Let the enchantment work, try not to try. Don't stuff yourself full when it is served. Leave some room for silence and surprises.

You have only to prepare the soil. The poem, the art, the phenomenon, the work is the seed. You must wait, and prepare the ground - recognize the alive-ness of all things.

The work is the seed and Meaning is in the meeting.
