The Hidden Third

We have (are) our sensory world of what we call fact and we have (are) our inner world of what we call imagination. They say if we live by the first alone, we are subhuman. If we live by the second alone, we are insane. So most of us move through the day doing a balancing act, always reconciling the two. We move rapidly back and forth from one to the other, so quickly that we may not even notice what we are doing. Yet there is a third force, that which births the two. No, it is not out there in the world of fact. No, it is not in here in the world of imagination. It is the source of the two. It is the Source sourcing. Not defined by “in” or “out,” it is the Third. The Third from which all arises. We are the Source sourcing. We are the Third, the Hidden Third, dualing / dueling. This is the Wellspring springing forth. This is the Living Water which is never quenched, which quenches all thirst.
