When the mind is still, the universe surrenders. (Buddha)
What universe?
The one we live in?
Or the one we create within us?
One is perceived and one appears to be real but distorted.
Distorted by our own senses,
Distorted by predispositions and prejudices.
When everything stands still for a fraction of a moment,
When the electrified brains completely come to an instantaneous halt,
An infinitely rather ultimate energy,
In the form of a feeling would flow into the subtler existence
And forever alter the way of perceiving, wherein the universe
Has no more self or other. They tend to unite.
And hence surrender as one gains or wins omniscience,
Though ephemerally. That is where reason ends
And what we search for lies, the ultimate truth.
