Albert Pike

With the year winding down and the tragedies in Asia, this short thing from Albert Pike, seems appropriate.

“But knowing that we shall live forever and that the Infinite God loves us all, we can look on all the evils of the world and see that it is only the hour before sunrise and that the dawn is coming; and so, we also, even we, may light a little taper to illuminate the darkness while it lasts and wait until the day spring come.

Eternal morning follows the night and a rainbow scarves the shoulder of every cloud that weeps its rain away to be flowers on land and pearls at sea. Life rises out of the grave and the soul cannot be held by quivering flesh. No dawn is hopeless and disaster is only the threshold of delight."

The Bull

With this symbolic circle ends the story of the bull.

The bull is gone. The world is gone. The music is gone.
There is neither Self nor not-Self. There is only infinite Reality symbolized by the circle of endless time.

This is Tao, Nirvana, and the final state of the superior man. The illusion of the world and the illusion of the Self in the world both came to an end. Only infinite Reality remains. The conquest of the bull results in the conquest of the world. When the world is conquered, it fades away. Only Truth remains, Truth nameless, formless, limitless, Truth to be discovered only by inward experience and meditation upon the mystery of the symbols. Epilogue, the mystic cannot put the experience into language, and now you know why.

We’re going to save you the agony of any more bull, because the year will run out before the story ends. For those rare souls in LVH who might want to see the middle of this story, Milt’s name and phone is in your directory.
