Close your mouth,
Block off your senses,
Blunt your sharpness,
Untie your knots,
Soften your glare.
This is the Primal Identity

"How is it possible
That a being with such sensitive jewels as the eyes,
Such enchanted musical intruments as the ears,
And such fabulous arabesque of nerves as the brain,
Can experience itself anything less than a god?"
Alan Watts.
