The Life Of Every Man Is A Mystery Ofsolitude And Communion. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

The Life Of Every Man Is A Mystery Ofsolitude And Communion.

Rating: 5.0


Private prayers evoke a sense
of the potential oneness
of God's love, solitude, and society.

We have to share this solitude
of the heart that we receive in prayer.

The life of every man is a mystery
of solitude and communion.

Solitude is experienced in the secrecy
of his own soul where a seeker
is alone with God.

He communicates his experience with others
who share the same nature.

A seeker who has experienced it
can reproduce this solitude in others.
It happens in love and communion.

There, he experiences others as
his own other selves.
So a Hindu mystic would say:
God is present in everyone and
in everything in the created nature.

All human beings are
God‘s 'other selves'
isolated from him and yet one with him.

Only those who love the solitude
with God and in God can
experience this joy of oneness.

Brother Tony, the title states a truth; it is a mystery—who knows why? —but we do need both solitude and communion. And communion is most satisfying, is true communion, when those who share it have experienced the vertical one-on-one relationship with God. -Glen

Dear Tony, I completely agree with the Hindu mystic. Also with the solitude and communion/oneness.: -) Have a good day today.

ONE: Private prayers evoke a sense of the potential oneness of God's love, solitude, and society. Indeed Dr. Tony, so it be and in most cases is that like you worded here, but in the next verse you wrote: So a Hindu mystic would say: God is present in everyone and in everything in the created nature. I cannot say like this since I do not know anything about a Hindu mystic, and I believe only in God and Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit,
