High on Waves

He who knows the first vital thread,
binding all the things formed in shape,
colour and words, knows only
the physical form of the universe, and
knows very little.
But he who goes deeper
and perceives the string inside the string,
the thin web binding separate life-forces
with cords of unity,
knows the real entity.
Only he knows truly the mighty
omnipotent and omnipresent God,
who is within and beyond all
formulated entities of the vast universe.
Penetrate deeper to know the ultimate truth.

Atharva Veda (10.8.38)
