July 11, '54

“Love. He is our deepest self. Mysterious, actual, delightful and sorrowful at once, full of gentility and imprudence, a beneficent spirit, a god acting thru human masks. He is the same in all, neither man or woman. We all have the same sense of bottom self. He is the solitary.

Thus love others as the self. We are incorruptible… The god survives. Love is complete. There is more than can be given. None is wasted no love is amiss none goes astray none perishes… It never lacks because it is All. It comes on the mind in visions. Watch for it coming! It enters the house of the body without your seeking.” - Allen Ginsberg, Journals Mid-Fifties 1954 - 1958
