Anyone who has probed the inner life, who has sat in silence
long enough to experience the stillness of the mind behind
its apparent noise, is faced with a mystery. Apart from all
the outer attractions of life in the world, there exists
at the center of human consciousness something quite
satisfying and beautiful in itself, a beauty without
features.
The mystery is not so much that these two dimensions exist –
an outer world and the mystery of the inner world – but that
we are suspended between them, as a space in which both
worlds meet . . . as if the human being is the meeting point,
the threshold between two worlds.
Kabir Helminski, The Knowing Heart
