The deep heart's core

"The closer you are to the gateway where the new life is streaming from, the stronger you be in your existence in the here and now."  — The Be Hive


The closer you are to the gateway where the new life is streaming from, the stronger you be in your existence in the here and now.
A man who lays his hand to the field has a far stronger connection and pathway to health than the man who eats cereal from a box. The more distanced physical life becomes from its parent reality — from the future-providing other-realms — the weaker it becomes in endurance.


"The Lake Isle of Innisfree" by Yeats

I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made:
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.

And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet's wings.

I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,
I hear it in the deep heart's core.
