He sees a blazing core of oneness
He sees neither distinction nor separateness
He sees a unity that is perfect and compelling
And it is always being born
Always renewed
Always itself and only itself
But can you understand this?
Can you match it with a suitable expression?
You can’t
The auroral darkness is itself and nothing less
And so cannot be spoken

Cf. by Martin Burke : Reading Meister Eckhart II - This Singing Ground
