The Awen ^[Awen is inspiration and the Divine Creative Energy.] flows whither it wills. It comes not when called, but heeds a gentle invitation. The Awen cannot be contained. It springs from the cauldron leaving poison in its stead. From the Ogyrwen ^[Ogyrwen, sometimes called gogyrwen, is either the source of the Awen as is a personification of Awen, the cauldron, or Ceridwen, the word is also used to refer to the divisions of Awen.] of triple inspiration arose the heavens and the earth and the motivation to move and change. In the Ogyrwen of the heart, cauldron, and spirit arose the names of all things and the separation of this from that. Let us soak in the sea of Awen free of thought, word, and deed, empty of desire, aversion, and attachment. Let us swim in flow of Awen filled with wisdom, poetry, and song dancing with life, liberation, and freedom. The calm and the flowing Awen are the same, only our frame of reference changes and whether we at peace or dancing. This is the mystery of the Awen and the riddle of the Ogyrwen, the great ocean of all wonders. --- Back | Book | Forward :-- | :--: | --: -- | [[0- The Book of Awen\|The Book of Awen]] | [[2- The Work of the Awenydd]]
