Glory be to the light of consciousness!

Thank you, multiverse, for the light of consciousness -- the thing that somehow is, our shared awareness, Body and Bodhi.

--

Thank you, Buddha Gautama, for existing in our past and for turning the wheel of Dharma in this Kalpa. Thank you for the Four Noble Truths, the Eighfold Path which on closer inspection has ten aspects, and for the concept of Bodhisattva and Bodhicitta as preserved through time!

Thank you, Maitreya, for existing in a future -- which our present seems to tend to become.

--

This is, if anything, my thesis: maybe we are, or will be, Maitreya -- if only we awake to this fact.

(We meaning you and me if you are willing to read these words and identify with some of them.)
