When We ‘L¤¤K But Do Not See’
A Bit of Alphabet Alchemy Illustrated Graphically
“We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts, we make the world.” Gautama Buddha
Eyes have been called ‘the windows to the Soul.’
Thus, the pupil at the CENTER of our eyes is
a clear indication that we are meant to be
life-long students of our own S¤ UL.
The O’s in LOOK look a lot like eyes
without their centering pupil available to
explore the heights and depths
of Life and Being.
By contrast, the two e’s in See resemble
two EYES. This indicates to me that we are meant to
See/Si for ourselves and to say YES (‘Aye Aye’) to Life:
Yesterday, YesToday and YesTomorrow.
The Sea/See
is obviously the Mother of Creation:
For as Buddha said so long ago:
As we C/See it –– so B/Be it.
To See requires the S ––
a potent symbol for tranSformation.
For without the S we cease to
exiSt and must exit
forthwith.
To S clearly
from a space of neutrality is what gives us
choice in life –– just as its spelling indicates:
CHO-I-CE
Similarly, when we have vision ––
our VO, I CE has value: ‘Oh! I See!’
So, how do we S
with greater clarity more frequently?
By putting our EAR to the EARTH
and listening to our HEART
For then we become an
Oracle (auricle1)
of Wisdom.
