A Glossary of Resonances across Time and Space

Preface

These notes trace the reverberations of a single current—the living movement between emptiness and form, stillness and becoming.

Through the centuries it has surfaced under many names: Tao, Christ, Sophia, Self, the Ground, the Field.

Each entry here is a listening post, a moment where that current found voice.

This is not a glossary of fixed meanings, but of resonances—glimpses of the same light refracted through different minds and moments.

To read it is to walk through echoes: each idea a doorway, each figure a voice in the same timeless conversation.

Together they form a constellation of understanding—not a system to be mastered, but a way of keeping company with the mystery that continues to reveal itself as our own deepest nature.

“However men approach Me, even so do I welcome them; for the path men take from every side is Mine.”

— Bhagavad Gita 4.11, trans. Eknath Easwaran
