Traditional Word: John 1:28 “These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing”
Contemporary Word: “The Dead Sea”
A sea that you cannot even drown in
It takes life even to take life
Only in constant transaction
Even the possibility of cosmic action
The sea that got walled in
Cannot host even a wandering jinn
To soak in this mineral soup
Is like being in the motherly sap
The salty sap of the earth
Life nourishing but named Death Sadhguru
