Every time you listen with great attentiveness to the voice that calls you Beloved, you will discover within yourself a desire to hear that voice longer and more deeply.

“Motion and rest” are signatures of the divine working within us (Gospel of Thomas v. 50) as we move toward “the one and become two” (v.11). Each figure in the clip from the movie Shelter sloughs off the garments of the world, one by one until truth is laid bare, naked. All escape doors shut. Sorrow swells into awe. Hope is borne. They return the garments of the world and fall into the arms of freedom, the bridal chamber of the eternal.
