Secular vis-a-vis Sacred



What is secular?
What is sacred?
Is there a watertight compartmentalization?

Coconut tree is sacred;
so are sand, boat, sea, waves and sky

You are a spark of divine
The sacred is very much within you
"Do you not know that you are
God's temple and God's Spirit
dwells in you" says St. Paul

"Aham Brahmasmi"
says the Indian Wisdom

Let us live in the present
and experience the divine
every bit.

Let us build up the mansion of our life
on the bedrock of hesed and Shalom
That is steadfast love and
Well being resulting from
harmonious co-existence.

You have a point. Seldom do we think about, i think. If we are sure about it , Aham Brahmasmi will lead to Tatvamasi, right?
