Hey All!
Thought I'd share what came to me tonight. It looks long, but it's easy reading...
The Issue and Solution of What IS
The issue is simple. Describing it is not. The solution is simple. Applying it is not.
And As It Is Below, So It Is Above. Imagine, then, The difficulty Of Unifying in Love.
Because what's simple Is difficult, Because what's difficult is simple,
It is reduced to a formula:     The issue is fear     The solution is love.
Though the words speak truth Most certainly, Understanding is rarely near. Not the least of the trouble, Incidentally, Is the use of the word fear.
When some alight upon this word, They push it away as though it's hot. Whatever it is they feel, they say, Fear is what it's definitely not!
They've learned to fear their fear, you see So they've learned to call it other things. In doing so they've created Some of that mentioned complexity.
Nevertheless the truth remains:     This issue is fear     The solution is love.
Each level of life strives To comprehend their plight Within the framework Of this truth borne of the light.
Each level comprehends To the degree they are able, And applies and makes amends While keeping themselves stable.
But stability is at issue. The want of it stems from that mentioned fear And so comprehension remains elusive As does the goal, my dear.
Yet unity is assured. And all will be reunited. The tensions will ease And perceptions will become Right-sighted.
The key to understand, The assurance this is so, Is that nothing ever separated. There's nowhere else to go!
It is merely a perception Taken on while whole, with glee. And what's explored From such a self-deception Could never rend "you" from "me".
"All Is One" is not simply a concept It is the way things truly are. This life of separate beingness Is merely a dream of traveling far.
Far from Is-ness Knowing To see what it is like To pretend One is not all there is And is separate from life.
I'm not sure if it's done, actually, but this is at least a pausing place. Heh heh.
With much love, Sowelu

Nicely said! The "What Is?" expression has been coming up a lot in my thoughts recently wilh a similar answer. It is a unifying question between mind and heart(science and spirituality). What is beyond fear? The more loving choice................
