Search for the Center

It has been a strange but reward­ing jour­ney. I have spent my life look­ing for the cen­ter. Here is how I did it, and here is what I found:

First of all, I pur­sued the­ol­ogy — and con­tinue that quest. God is cer­tainly the begin­ning, mid­dle, and the end. That part of the quest began with a fore­gone con­clu­sion (98% of the peo­ple on this planet believe in a Higher Being). The other quests have been more illusive.

Sec­ond, I pur­sued the quest for the ulti­mate mind. Psy­chol­ogy is a won­der­ful place to play aca­d­e­m­i­cally. In the end, I found that the mind that loves is the health­i­est. God is love.

Third, I looked for the ulti­mate thought. I pur­sued phi­los­o­phy and found that, much like the­ol­ogy, it begins and ends in that ethe­real con­cept called God.

Fourth, I have stud­ied the phys­i­cal cre­ation. Physics is a real trip. It too begins and ends with what is called a “singularity” — also dubbed…for lack of any other term as: God.

For all of my quests, I have found that the Cen­ter is not in some far off galaxy, grand philo­sophic scheme, psy­cho­log­i­cal con­cept, or the­o­log­i­cal model. The Cen­ter is every­where. That is the para­dox. It resides every­where, but is most eas­ily found in your own heart.
