A River Flows There

There is a river in the old texts that has never stopped flowing. Ezekiel sees it. It comes out from under the threshold of the temple, from beneath the place where God is enthroned, and it moves east. Ankle-deep at first. Then knee-deep. Then deep enough to swim in.

Consciousness is Primary. But Not Ultimate.

There is a growing consensus in contemplative and philosophical circles that Consciousness is the ground of all reality — the ultimate, the all, the One. It is a compelling framework.
