An Aperture

Lyrics
The thing is that we have been educated to use our minds in a certain way A way that ignores, or screens out, the fact that Every one of us Is an aperture Through which the whole cosmos Looks out Every one of us Is an aperture Through which the whole cosmos Looks out You see, it’s as if you had a light covered with a black ball, and in this ball were pinholes, and each pinhole is an aperture through which the light comes out So in that way, every one of us is, actually, a pinhole through which the fundamental light That is, the existence itself, looks out Only, the game we’re playing is not to know this To be only that little hole, which we call “me,” “my ego,” my specific “John Jones,” or whatever Every one of us Is an aperture Through which the whole cosmos Looks out Every one of us Is an aperture Through which the whole cosmos Looks out
