One night, as I lay awake I heard a conversation between a moth & a candle. Both lovers of the flame. Moth, desiring a union, gets closer & burns its wings. Resorts to flutter around the beloved instead. The candle stands still until it is entirely consumed by the fire. This is mingling of one’s consciousness with the consciousness of the object itself. We may know the star intellectually, but until we are the star, the love, the stone, the heaven & the earth, we have not attained consciousness.
