Everything is Sacred and Alive

The following is part of a lucid dream, as recorded by Robert Waggoner in his book “Lucid Dreaming”:

I stop and look intently at the deep darkness. Is there evil in there?

Then, from within, I hear a voice deliver this message: “The light upholds the darkness.”And suddenly I know that behind all apparent evil or darkness is light; band that it’s light that gives us the sense of darkness.

Then I hear: “Everything is sacred and alive.” I intuitively realize that the light is in every living creature as a condition of its existence.

And then I hear something more clarifying: “Even the space between your fingers is sacred and alive.” I look at my outstretched hand and see the space between my fingers, that precious emptiness, and know with clarity that I live in a sacred universe, where even the apparent emptiness is aware and alive. With form or without, all is sacred and alive.
