26 June (Water) Liber LXV, 3:34-36
-
34. All day I sing of Thy delight; all night I delight in Thy song.
35. There is no other day or night than this.
36. Thou art beyond the day and the night; I am Thyself, O my Maker, my Master, my Mate! -
I've written almost nothing on these for this entire chapter. - For this one (and most of the recent verses), I just wanted to say: This is pure bhakti. This is as close as these verses get to the essence of this entire Thelemic Tephilah practice.

It's hard for me not consider this attitude and not feel it is related to going over Niagra Falls in a Barrel!
I know it's just my perspective, a thing subject to change and education.

When I'm playing the song, a part of me yearns to be outside, listening.
When I am listening to the song, a part of me yearns, heart breaking, to be inside playing.And when all the tears expend themselves, both sides acknowledge each other as through a window, the snot-faced vague forms peering out (and in), and a growing sense that they can each say "Yes!" and experience "other" and "same" in one shared breath.

I would like to add a little more to this (if I can… Oh thank you)
"36. Thou art beyond the day and the night; I am Thyself, O my Maker, my Master, my Mate! "
This is beyond the other, it is the darkness beyond the one on the outside and the light beyond the one on the inside…. Is not the Darkness and the light the same?… Is it not my mate? Yes my mate of splendor the one without and within. The one that creates and is created.
Thanks for this joy oh my beloved.... Thanks for this joy.
