Lyrics

Play [repeat]
The self has thus the capacity to abandon itself to forget itself to hide from itself
This to make the most completely convincing illusion
But in play
And so, the activity of the creative activity of the Godhead in Hindus is called Leela
Which means play
Play
Our word lilt is related to it I think

But so also in the book of Proverbs you will find a discourse being given by the divine wisdom
The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his ways before his works of old
Its delight was to rejoice the King James Bible says in the presence of God and with the sons of men
But the Hebrew translated rejoice says play
Play
Play
It is a basic proposition for the Hindu that only the self
The Godhead is real
Only the self
The Godhead is real

There is nothing other than the God head
The God head is real
There is nothing other than the God head
The God head is real
The Chinese looks upon the universe as an organism as we shall subsequently see
But the dramatic idea is basic to Hinduism

Now you could speak about Hinduism on two levels at least
One I will call the the metaphysical level
And the other the mythological level [repeat]

If you speak on the metaphysical level you can speak only in negative language
You could say what the divine the ultimate reality is not
If you speak on the mythological level you may speak of what the divine is like
Because myth is not a falsehood as one uses the word in a sophisticated way
A myth is an image- a concrete image
In terms of which Man makes sense of the world
Which Man makes sense of the world
If looking at it from another way we push technology to its furthest possible development
And we had instead of a dial telephone on one's desk a more complex system of buttons
And one touch, beep would give you anything you want

Aladdin's lamp you would eventually have to introduce a button labeled “Surprise”

[Laughs] surprise
[Laughs] surprise
[Laughs] surprise

[Laughs] Because all perfectly known futures as I pointed out are past
They have happened virtually
It is only the true future is a surprise
It is only the true future is a surprise
