Hay-Ku of the Day ("Thank You for Making the Truth Plain!")

"Letting Go" of "what

I am not" is the "one way"

To "Be What I Am."

***

I can only know

What I am through the contrast 

Of what I am not.

An inverse process 

Of knowing what I am not

Shows me what I Am.

***

Knowing what I am

Through an inverse process of

Knowing what I'm not.

Only in the Face

Of Darkness can the Full Light

Of Awareness Dawn.

***

Darkness offers the

Contrast needed to realize

Awareness Itself.

Darkness provides the

Contrast needed to know the

Light of Awareness.

***

Apparent Darkness

Is a catalyst for the 

Light of Awareness

Apparent darkness

Catalyzes Light into

Conscious Awareness.

Apparent darkness

Is a catalyst for the

Birth of Living Light.

***

As "an eye can't see

Itself," nor can "I as the

Light of Awareness."

Apparent absence

Of the Light of Awareness

Implies Its Presence.

Scripture-Wise:

"And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." Genesis 1:2 KJV

"For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ." 2 Corinthians 4:6 KJV

Bill Samuel-Wise:

"...I began to learn the principle of contradistinction which suggests that everything but the light of Life itself is an image, positive or negative, of Something Greater. That everything points first to its contrary, thence to the Balance between, thence to the Something Beyond, transcendent and immanent simultaneously..." -- Bill Samuel

RE2: Bill's "L'Lijah the Luminious Lightening Bug -- a lovely natural Illustration of contradistinction:
