Where is the door to God?
In the sound of a barking dog.
In the ring of a hammer,
in a drop of rain,
in the face of everyone,
everyone I see.
Where is the door
to the divine tavern?
Yes, in all we can behold.

Door to the Divine
Where is the door to God?
In the sound of a barking dog.
In the ring of a hammer,
in a drop of rain,
in the face of everyone,
everyone I see.
Where is the door
to the divine tavern?
Yes, in all we can behold.

I can imagine that image painted on leaf-shaped metal as a wall sconce.
Beautiful.
