One vision, clearly seen, that does not fit the picture as it was perceived before will change the world for eyes that learn to see, because the concept of the self has changed.
Are you invulnerable? Then the world is harmless in your sight.
Do you forgive? Then is the world forgiving, for you have forgiven it its trespasses, and so it looks on you with eyes that see as yours.
Are you a body? So is all the world perceived as treacherous, and out to kill.
Are you a spirit, deathless, and without the promise of corruption and the stain of sin upon you?
So the world is seen as stable, fully worthy of your trust; a happy place to rest in for a while, where nothing need be feared, but only loved. Who is unwelcome to the kind in heart?
And what could hurt the truly innocent?
