Breakthrough

Our Breakthrough is nobler than our flowing out.
For when I flowed out from God and all creatures
shouted, "God!"
they were saying that I was a creature.
And this cannot make me happy.
In my Breakthrough, on the other hand,
I am neither God
nor creature.
Rather,
I am what I was
and what I shall remain now and forever.

In my flowing-out I entered creation
In my Breakthrough I re-enter God.

Only those who have dared to let go
can dare to re-enter.

In this Breakthrough
I discover
that God and I
are one.

There,
I am what I was,
I grow neither smaller nor bigger,
and I am an immovable cause
that in turn moves all things.

Just as God breaks through me,
so do I break through God in return.

And,
When God draws the soul to him/herself
then the soul becomes divine
but God does not become the soul.
