15. Aspiration

Imagination was aspiration.
Inspiration was aspiration.
Now aspiration is inspiration.

When imagination was aspiration
I felt that I was of my Inner Pilot
      And
I was for my Inner Pilot.

When inspiration was aspiration
I felt that I could fly
To my Eternity's Beloved Supreme.

When aspiration is inspiration,
When the real becomes conscious
   Of its existence in us,
God the unmanifested Reality
   Becomes not only the manifested Reality
   But the only Reality
In the world of glowing hope,
In the world of flowing reality.
