It has no width and no slant. To gain our sense of balance and our sea legs in both the inner world of our personal consciousness and in the outer world of objective reality at the same time is to be properly prepared for our inner journey in the ship of skin we sail across the sea of life. So, we crawl, and toddle and walk and stride and run and jump. When we have our sense of balance, we can dance. We can dance in our bodies with grace and good bearing.
Meditation can be an exercise, a path, and a form of dance in the mind.
It is the mental source of our physical dance and it is the source of our grace and good bearing in the physical world. The Hebrew alphabet is designed to provide the dance steps needed for the meditational dance. It also provides us with a way to find which way is up for ourselves. When we move through the letters of the alphabet we can circle the Whole world and reach for the One Most High. This is the First Hand path, the Hero s Journey, and the path with heart, and it is the direction we are searching for.
