The Kingdom Within
Realize, however, that it is not a being somewhere out there
who has to be found, but it is instead our own inner centre of
beingness, evolving awareness, which reveals to us the nagal's
purpose and intent in bringing the unknown into the light of
the known. To this effect, Jesus Christ taught the world that
'the kingdom of God is within you', and 'seek ye first the
kingdom of God' . Yet, even after two thousand years, man has
still not grasped this message. Therefore does the Christian
still seek a salvation outside of himself, and does the Hindu still
seek to hear the voice of Krishna, whilst the Muslim still awaits
the light of the Imam Mahdi. The descendants of the Magi too
are still watching for the star of Zarathustra, while the
Alchemist seeks the Philosopher's Stone, and the Qabalist
puzzles over the elusive qualities of Tiphareth. At the same
time, the Freemason bemoans the Lost Word; the Romany
singer is wandering from place to place in search of the Lost
Song; the Basque dancer is trying to remember the Forgotten
Dance; and the gypsy flamenco dancer is still in search of the
Lost Rhythm.
