The more absent I am as a construct, the more present I become as a living reality, elusive is my true face and yet I am everywhere.

It gives Itself in one form or another. Now as boring, now as exciting; often as dreadful, and sometimes as sweet and cozy.

Theosis is Deification through Concentration. Theosis is Obliteration in Affirmation. This encompasses the method, the means, and the end of all spiritual ascent: First, we become aware of our existence; then, we see, with the Eye … More Theosis

All doubts are removed, all past and future gone, with one sublime glance of the Solitary One. Pray for the unconcealment of that blessed moment in which His glance catches yours and annihilates all separation and duality, and all things merge in one eternal glance.
