“The Beloved woke. We became That, and the lake is crystal-clear.
Intense cold makes water ice. Then the hard ice turns to slush and back to water,
so there are three forms of consciousness: the individual, the world, and God,
which in the sun of True Awareness melt to one flowing: I AM THAT.”
Lalla Ded (also known as Lalleshwari), 14th century Kashmiri poet mystic
