No permanence is ours; we are a wave
That flows to fit whatever form it finds:
Through night or day, cathedral or the cave
We pass forever, craving form that binds.

We are but whirlpools in a river of ever-flowing water. We are not the stuff that abides, but patterns that perpetuate themselves.

For thousands of years, human beings have been exploring the nature of who we are and the purpose of our being here on this planet. Many found what they were searching for, but billions of forms who were once called “people” are no longer here. They are gone. And now it is our turn – we are the living wave. We entered into manifestation to walk on this planet as contemporaries and to take our chance at finding that which is imperishable in us. All of us have this opportunity to find true freedom, and no one is exempt, no one is disqualified, because the light of consciousness burns in everyone.

We flow, we descend, we turn . . . and the eternal dreamer
Moves among us like light, like evening air . . .

Everything flows and nothing abides; everything gives way and nothing stays fixed.

We are what we must,
And not what we would be. I know that one hour
Forestalls not another. The will and the power
Are diverse.

To understand ourselves needs no authority either of yesterday or of a thousand years because we are living things, always moving, flowing, never resting.

Can you see that this “I” is fleeting, a temporary formation, like a wave pattern on the surface of the water? Who is it that sees this? Who is it that is aware of the fleetingness of your physical and psychological form? I am. This is the deeper “I” that has nothing to do with past and future.

In our lives, we surf the wave of chance.

We know not of its presence, though its power
Be on the gradual round of every hour,
Now flinging down an empire, now a flower.

Life is a wave, which in no two consecutive moments of its existence is composed of the same particles.

Our life is like to dice, which ever fall
In varying combinations; no one form
Has man's existence, but 'tis full of change.
