SUSPICIONS

SUSPICIONS

by

suspicions I harbor deep at heart

some inkling of unity beyond division

of mystical, not mythical

of cup, not sword

lost in strange exotic search

found in the old oriental prescriptions

the angel wings of compassion and wisdom,

the sacred in ordinary time

the simple me and thee of

the anointed, appointed, awakened before myths and dogma

something sweet in orthopraxy, not orthodoxy

in ontology, not theology

the clear light of universal wonder

funding a commonwealth of saints

healing broken hearts and our war-weary world

The focus of "The BeZine," a publication of The Bardo Group Beguines, is on sacred space (common ground) as it is expressed through the arts. Our work covers a range of topics: spirituality, life, death, personal experience, culture, current events, history, art, and photography and film. We share work here that is representative of universal human values however differently they might be expressed in our varied religions and cultures. We feel that our art and our Internet-facilitated social connection offer a means to see one another in our simple humanity, as brothers and sisters, and not as “other.” This is a space where we hope you’ll delight in learning how much you have in common with “other” peoples. We hope that your visits here will help you to love (respect) not fear. For more see our Info/Mission Statement Page.
