How Do We Not Lose Ourselves in This?

We are
the manifest thoughts of the Great Mind,
Momentary pieces of the Eternal Now.
We are instances of existence, whose quiet insistence
Demand the degradation of the Mystery of which we are made.
We are blind to the maelstrom of matter and time,
To the galaxies of particles and energy of which we are comprised,
To the limitlessness of this swirl of heat and planets and light.
We are so unimaginably enormous, and so invisibly miniscule.
Momentary pieces of the Eternal Now.
We are instances of existence, whose quiet insistence
Demand the degradation of the Mystery of which we are made.
We are blind to the maelstrom of matter and time,
To the galaxies of particles and energy of which we are comprised,
To the limitlessness of this swirl of heat and planets and light.
We are so unimaginably enormous, and so invisibly miniscule.
