The sun has set, and now begins the great darkness, the longest night of the year. The darkness: rest, death, the end of things, the light gone away. But I think tonight of Shiva and Kali, who bring the end in order to create a beginning. I hope one year to plan ahead and have the courage to spend this dark night entire in the dark, to savor the absence of light, to love that emptiness.
The spirit of emptiness is immortal.
It is called the Great Mother
because it gives birth to Heaven and Earth.
