The Advent Wait #unitarians

What are we waiting for?


By its very nature the eternal You cannot become an It.

The eternal You is not to be found either in or outside the world; is not to be experienced; is not to be thought.

And we transgress against That Which Has Being if we say: “I believe that He is.”
For even “He” or “She” or “It” is still a metaphor, while “You” is not.

(adapted from Martin Buber, I and Thou)



You, the Self
the Tao
the Brahman – Atman
the Rule
the Source
the Sovereign
the Way
the Abyss;

You, Life
Underlying Order
the Great Unfolding
Overall Dance
Complete Entirety
the Integral Net of Being

There is no reason, no meaning, no travel, no ‘later’, in You

There is only here, now.
