IN THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS

On this occasion, hearing the call of a bird,

he closed his eyes …and the Infinite

passed into him

from all sides, so intimately that he 

believed he could

feel the stars, which had in the

meantime appeared …

gently resting within his breast

Rainer Maria Rilke

MAY THE TRUE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS

- WHICH IS PEACE -

BE WITH ALL SENTIENT BEINGS

  1. I was frozen by these two lines …

    he closed his eyes …and the Infinite

    passed into him …

    they are powerful words.

    The chant was so reminicent of my school days … wonderful memories drifted to me as I listened.
    Beautiful … Merry Christmas …. !!!!
