Light and Dark

This song pays homage to the Darkness and the Light. The words "Light and Dark, Dark and Light" form a circle to show that the Light and the Darkness are inseparable. The listener is invited to "see the world with Heaven's sight"...to look at the darkness from the perspective of Spirit. With this vision he can “find the treasure in the night". So the song is an initiation, the opening of a door.

The first verses describe our humanness. We feel like we are on a spinning wheel and our "feet can barely touch the ground". This chaos however leads to our liberation…it “spins the gold that makes the crown”… once we embrace its meaning.

The final verses deal with the dissolution of self where our name-the symbol of our ego- is burned away, transformed into sacred ash. It is the last stage of the initiation, but since "nothing ever stays the same," it is also a beginning…another point on the circle.
