At that time, She arose
And said :

I am neither pious nor ungodly
I am neither saint nor sinner
I am neither a servant nor a master
I am neither attached nor detached
I am neither bond nor free
I am neither living nor dead
I am neither existing nor not existing
I am neither this nor that

A brilliant Light shone forth
I woke up:
Ipse is I
I am Life

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
