THE BEGINNING OF A LONG PROCESS

 
Even in the lowest lustful life in the gross sphere, God is experiencing Himself as a lover; but it is the state of a lover who is completely ignorant about the true nature of himself or of God the Beloved. It is the state of a lover who is inexorably separated from the divine Beloved by an opaque curtain of ununderstood duality.

It is nevertheless the beginning of a long process by which the lover breaks through the enveloping curtain of ignorance and comes into his own truth as unbounded and unhampered Love.
