Spiritual experience is a modest woman Spiritual experience is a modest woman : Spiritual experience is a modest woman who looks lovingly at only one man. Its a great river where ducks live happily, and crows drown. The visible bowl of form contains food that is both nourishing and a source of heartburn. There is an unseen presence we honor that gives the gifts. Youre water. Were the millstone. Youre wind. Were dust blown into shapes. Youre spirit. Were the opening and closing of our hands. Youre the clarity. Were this language that tries to say it. Youre joy. Were all the different kinds of laughing. Any movement or sound is a profession of faith, as the millstone grinding is explaining how it believes in the river! No metaphor can say this, but I cant stop pointing to the beauty. Every moment and place says, Put this design in your carpet! Like the shepherd in Book II, who wanted to pick the lice off Gods robe, and stitch up Gods shoes, I want to be in such a passionate adoration that my tent gets pitched against the sky! Let the beloved come and sit like a guard dog in front of the tent. When the ocean surges, dont let me just hear it. Let it splash inside my chest!
