Unbroken: a polyptych on mirrors Print

I have taken many beyond stumbling before disaster to standing tall... I have taken many beyond death, to their reincarnations, to their souls... And while it is true that we are unbreakable... It is not a claim we can make lightly... For returning from death, seeing one past lives, meeting one's soul, being touched by God, does not mean we are immune to fear, torture, terror, tyranny, the death passage... It just makes one a little better prepared. This piece written on 4 broken mirrors with eggshells, gives an sense of how the challenges continuously escalate... "I can fall but I will Not Break" is a great line but it becomes real only when I fall and get up. Many spiritualists talk God, do root chakra meditations. But it is the man who stands up he deserves our respect. "I can break but I will not be crushed", is followed by "I can be crushed But I Will Not Die", I can Die, But I Will Be Born Again". And so this piece is a challenge. To each of us, giving us a yardstick to measure ourselves. With the knowledge that before Death's yardstick most of us will fail. But it is ok if we get up again. And this is a piece for every spiritual teacher & guru. And it is a sobering one.
