Your duty is to be, 
And not to be this or that. 
"I am that I am," sums up the whole truth. 
The method is summed up in the words, "Be still."

HILDEGARD VON BINGEN.  
Artist and mystic 
In her visions  
Compared God to a Cosmic Egg 
That surges flames into the universe  
Emptying 
And filling itself 
Like a womb

Creative, beneficial, and nurturing to all life within. 

She spoke of this sacred feminine as 
Divine Love  
The essence of the universe  
The highest fiery power 
That shines in water  
Burns in the sun  
Moon  
And stars 

Stirring everything into existence  
And causing all life 
To glisten 
With this light.
