Love - a presence in the cosmos
*********************************************************************************************
If love had a name, it should be "light".
If love had color, it would be a phantasmal spectrum like a rainbow with reflections of mythology in.
If love had shape or motion, it would be a Mandala-like circle which dignifies and embraces all matter ---encompassing everything in harmony and balance (=equilibrium). It might also be likened to ripples on the tranquil surface of a lake in the light of a full moon.
If love had a sound, it would be the resonating echoes of all beautiful, good, truthful wills and wishes.
If love had a house or seat, it would surely be the great cosmos itself.
Mandalas ---with their spiritual connotations linked to color, shape, motion and sound --- have come to be drawn, painted, modeled, danced around and used in prayer or incantation in religious rites throughout Asia over the centuries.
They are a dimension where one becomes aware of --- as well as opens up one's soul to --- being united with eternal cosmic love.
With your imagination, draw the "Mandala of Love" in your inner cosmos first...
