@RizomaSchool @LMSacasas Love your rap. Maybe worth affirming: a cumulative 'side-effect' of such 'work' (whatever approach we take) is that the gaze itself begins to change and, changing, changes all. Then, *everyone* appears, clear as day, as they truly, deeply, transcendently are. Beauty, personified!

Art of antlered deer with nimbus and calligraphy: I feel it now. There's a power in me. My looking ripens things. Nothing is too small For me to cherish And paint in gold As if it were an icon That could bless us Though I'll not know Who among us Will feel this blessing. - Rilke

2/ “...All of us, gazing with unveiled face on the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image.” 2 Cor. 3:18) We merely keep returning to the divine gaze and we become its reflection, almost in spite of ourselves.” @RichardRohrOFM cac.org/a-superior-lens-2021-07-16/
