There is the illusion of the world and the reality of the Torah.
Indians love to reduce the prosaic to the mystic.
In India, there's a way of seeing life as a cosmic play. It's called Lila. I can watch my life, and I can see my guru playing with me.
Those who deal in magic learn to see the world in a slightly differnt light than everybody else.you gain a perspective you had considered before. A way of thinking that would never have occurred to you with out exposure to the things a wizard sees and hears.When you look in to some ones eyes you see them in that other light and for just a second they see you in the same way.
Stars are holes in the sky, they are the light of Heaven coming from the other side.
If you do not see yourselves and all things as living, moving, and having their being in God, you see nothing, whatever you may think you see.
What is God after all? An eternal child playing an eternal game in an eternal garden.
