Oh, this Holy Instant! The one where I arrive. Just before, yes, there was the bath I so desired to have that I put on the kettle to warm the water coming out of the tub’s faucet, never more than tepid in the mornings as it seems the water heater, like the rest of...

In A Course of Love’s 4th treatise, A Treatise on the New, all are called to continue as forerunners and prophets of the new. Asked to accept a wisdom beyond our personal capacity, we have been summoned to be beacons of the new and to establish the covenant of the...
