The Bird

posted in: Dada's posts | 0

The other day I went to a supermarket and noticed a bird flying around. When I pointed it out to one of the employees he said that it had been there for the last three years because it hadn’t been able to find it’s way out again. He said that it survives on water which melts from the ice of the fresh food department, and breadcrumbs from the bakery.

In a way we are all like that bird. We’ve gotten ourselves lost in the supermarket of this perceived reality we call the world. While real, it exists within a far greater eternally blissful reality we may call many things but words can never do it justice. When we eventually realise that ever-blissful state all our longing will reach its ultimate fruition.

“We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.” (Pierre Teilhard de Chardin)
