DANIEL ORR

Summary

To Zenith the Lord said, "Be quiet and listen to the people that I send into your life, and then when you speak, millions of people's lives will change as a result." Zenith, God's mouthpiece, and his mirror soul, Armi, a mystic union long cast away, rejoins the world in brief from where dreams come and to where they come true. Having long made Melbourne his home, time has come to bid it farewell. Upon departure, a vision comes. Zenith sees people hungry for the life of wisdom earned. They too saw him, and came in earnest, and heard his parting speech. The people wake as dawn breaks. From worlds close and afar, they venture. Different faiths and walks of life fill the city centre. The congregation forge to the Yarra River, the dream setting, in prayer for a meeting with Zenith before he leaves its shores. Worlds meet and Zenith begins to speak on a range of topics: including awareness, light and dark, beauty, silence, emptiness, love, God, power and control, enlightenment, pleasure and pain, teaching, and more. In doing so, a power unforeseen emerges and confronts the throng's own perspective in such a way as to drive it to its peak, the greatest view.
