𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐄𝐍𝐆𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐇 𝐎𝐅 𝐒𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐑𝐈 𝐀 𝐂𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐒 𝐋𝐄𝐃 𝐁𝐘 𝐒𝐇𝐑𝐀𝐃𝐃𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐀𝐍 𝐀𝐓 𝐒𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐑𝐈 𝐁𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐀𝐍, 𝐀𝐔𝐑𝐎𝐕𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐄 𝟐𝟏-𝟎𝟑-𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟗 ==================================== 𝐒𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐑𝐈 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝐓𝐖𝐎 - 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐕𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐄𝐑 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃 𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐎 𝐅𝐈𝐕𝐄 - 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐆𝐎𝐃𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐓𝐋𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐅𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐒 𝟏𝟏𝟔-𝟏𝟕𝟖 𝐏𝐀𝐆𝐄 𝟏𝟓𝟒-𝟏𝟓𝟔 =================================== At the outset of this enigmatic world Which seems at once an enormous brute machine And a slow unmasking of the spirit in things, In this revolving chamber without walls In which God sits impassive everywhere As if unknown to himself and by us unseen In a miracle of inconscient secrecy, Yet is all here his action and his will. In this whirl and sprawl through infinite vacancy The Spirit became Matter and lay in the whirl, A body sleeping without sense or soul. A mass phenomenon of visible shapes Supported by the silence of the Void Appeared in the eternal Consciousness And seemed an outward and insensible world. There was none there to see and none to feel; Only the miraculous Inconscient, A subtle wizard skilled, was at its task. Inventing ways for magical results, Managing creation's marvellous device, Marking mechanically dumb wisdom's points, Using the unthought inevitable Idea, It did the works of God's intelligence Or wrought the will of some supreme Unknown. Still consciousness was hidden in Nature's womb, Unfelt was the Bliss whose rapture dreamed the worlds. Being was an inert substance driven by Force. At first was only an etheric Space: Its huge vibrations circled round and round. Housing some unconceived initiative: Upheld by a supreme original Breath Expansion and contraction's mystic act Created touch and friction in the void, Into abstract emptiness brought clash and clasp: Parent of an expanding universe In a matrix of disintegrating force, By spending it conserved an endless sum. On the hearth of Space it kindled a viewless Fire That, scattering worlds as one might scatter seeds, Whirled out the luminous order of the stars. An ocean of electric Energy Formlessly formed its strange wave-particles Constructing by their dance this solid scheme, Its mightiness in the atom shut to rest; Masses were forged or feigned and visible shapes; Light flung the photon's swift revealing spark And showed, in the minuteness of its flash Imaged, this cosmos of apparent things. Thus has been made this real impossible world, An obvious miracle or convincing show. Or so it seems to man's audacious mind Who seats his thought as the arbiter of truth, His personal vision as impersonal fact, As witnesses of an objective world His erring sense and his instruments' artifice. Thus must he work life's tangible riddle out In a doubtful light, by error seize on Truth And slowly part the visage and the veil. Or else, forlorn of faith in mind and sense, His knowledge a bright body of ignorance, He sees in all things strangely fashioned here The unwelcome jest of a deceiving Force, A parable of Maya and her might.
