Leonard Cohen – Love Itself Lyrics | 10 years ago |
Sounds like Leonard is describing a meditation. Where his spirit gets in contact with itself and manages to fulfill itself with pure love. The spririt world, the Nameless, is helping him with this. And when the meditation is over, his material body is not dualistic anymore, but in contact with the soul. Nothing left between the nameless and the name. ( |
Leonard Cohen – You Have Loved Enough Lyrics | 10 years ago |
The lyrics clearly has a holistic, buddhistic touch. You cannot love properly until you grasp the wholeness, in this case of a person. I swept the marble... - polish the surface but you sent down below - depth of the person in question. You kept me from believing- do not think that you know until you really do. When hatred comes you forbid delivery - buddhism, do not deny your feelings, learn to deal with them in a loving way. In the most unegoistic moments of our lives, we may have a notion of something greater than ourselves, like that love seizes us and not the opposite. Like when composers say that they are just the vessels of channeling. |
