finger and foot
The things which happen to a person and those which happen through a person are as much a part of the person as finger and foot. We are what we hear and speak as we are what we eat.

You who speak of creations and creators
You who speak of creations and creators, who speak as well of end times and eschatology, how can you not believe in evolution?

This is my prayer, the way I pray now:
This is my prayer, the way I pray now: imagining with you a more cohesive conversing human surround.

So what universes would I create?
So what universes would I create? I would create ones not so far from our human universe, ones in which people inspired one another, collaborated, made their worlds loving. Not so far, not so easy, not so impossible.
:- Doug.
We label everything
We create our world as much in our imagination and consciousness as we simply perceive what is there. We label everything: tree, car, cloud. That is neither their nature nor what we are perceiving with eyes or touch. So knowing this, we can get conscious about what we see and what we want to see, about what our collective consciousness makes of this world. The way? Conversation. We think things together, we work them, we mold and shape and bend. We imagine, we in-gather, we invite. We invite. We invite and so we invent, in both meanings of “invent.” This is a work that we are doing, a world creation, a world direction creation.

By our perceptions shall we know us
By our perceptions shall we know us. What is my work? What is our work in conversation together? Creating our world.

What if I created whole universes in my poetry?
What if I created whole universes in my poetry?

as if conscious and loving
Friend, you are like environment and field, you are as if conscious and loving, you are indescribable. All about, in-gathering, presence pure, being, moving.
:- Doug.
harder to focus
Not having an image makes it harder to focus. Which might be why the breath or the mandala or the mantra is important to some forms of meditation/contemplation.
:- Doug.
Can an imageless God?
Can an imageless God love me? Can I love such a one? Can we love each other? What does love mean, that is what does in mean in the prior sentences? A passion, an emotion, yes. An action too? A movement together, an attraction?
:- Doug.
like a milieu, like a field
This now I am experiencing God as all about me, like a milieu (whatever that might be), like a field (same wondering).
:- Doug.
