Silent Bear: The inexhaustible spiritual source of the Absolute


All during the nineties I was a victim of
psychosis. I lived the grace of madness several
times and I see this as a gift of the Absolute.
Psychosis brought me into contact with the
universal force and truth that is both scourge
and salvation and which together teach living
individuals the lesson of their fate, their place
as living spirits in the universe. Besides our
body we also have a soul and a spirit, which
I find a beautiful idea, as in Western alchemy
with its triangle of sulphur, mercury and
salt. Sulpher stands for the spirit, the divine
inspiration, mercury represents the soul, the
double element of water, emotion working
together with reason, air. The material basis
is salt, the crystal, the body with material and
spiritual needs, both of which have to find
their balance and seek their correct place. In
my poems I have written many times that it
is a bowl of soup that fills the stomach. It
is a great challenge for everybody to have
enough food and I am more than convinced
that this goal can be realised if we all
straighten our backs and look towards the
silent universe and ask for our dignity. Even
in the Kali-Yuga starvation is not a necessity.
Our hunger in this age tends towards
spirituality. The absurd emptiness of a global
capitalist consumption society devours the
divine love of our hearts. This civilisation of
marketing and creation of needs is pointless
and divides the brotherhood of mankind.
The only thing we really know is that we
all have a credit card towards eternity in
our pocket. On this planet called Earth
we live at least the permanent miracle of
consciousness. This unlimited inner self in
a borderless freedom that teaches each of
us that we all are this cosmic manifestation.
And the foundation of this is the Absolute,
the infinite loveof all that is in good and evil.
All we see and live is a divine miracle. Who
looks for it with determination will find it
and the revelation of beauty will be realised.

Silent Bear.
