Mind is a Mirror
Reflecting Existence: Mind as the Mirror in Joan Darwin's Symphony
Lyrics
It's all you
It all refers to you.
Everything you perceive
Every perception you have is part of your experience.
It's all you
Reiteration that everything is a reflection of yourself.
All the places, people, things, and dreams
All aspects of life, including places, people, things, and dreams, are interconnected with you.
When you look around
Observing the world around you.
You're looking around in your head
Emphasizing that your external observations are a reflection of your thoughts.
It's all you
Reaffirmation that everything you perceive is a manifestation of yourself.
Everything you ever see
Everything you ever see is part of your consciousness.
It's all you
Underlining that your entire visual experience is interconnected with you.
Everything you could ever think and dream
Highlighting the role of your thoughts and dreams in shaping your reality.
Take a look
Encouragement to introspect and examine your surroundings.
Take a look around you
Directing attention to the environment and its connection to the self.
And maybe you'll see
Suggesting that a closer look may reveal the connection between self and surroundings.
Mind is a mirror
Declaration that the mind functions as a reflective surface.
Mind
Emphasis on the concept of the mind.
Mind is a mirror
Reiteration that the mind acts as a mirror.
Mind
Reaffirmation of the centrality of the mind in perception.
It's all you
Repeating the idea that everything is a reflection of the self.
It's all you
Reiteration of the interconnectedness of self and surroundings.
Everything you see
Every visual experience is part of your being.
Everything you see is all you
Stressing that everything you see is an extension of yourself.
From the start from the start everything you are
From the beginning, everything about you is integral to your identity.
From the start from the start everything you are
Repetition emphasizing the enduring nature of your core identity.
Look around and you'll see that you are stars
Observing the celestial connection of the self.
You had an idea
Introduction of the concept of having an idea.
You became that idea
Becoming the embodiment of the conceived idea.
And then you tried and tried again
Iterative attempts at realizing and manifesting the self.
You tried again
-And you tried again
-And you tried again
-And you'll try again
-And you'll try again
-And you'll try again
-And you'll try again
-Cause everything you are
Highlighting the consistency of the self throughout the journey.
Everything you are
-Is the same as it all was at the start
Asserting that the core essence remains unchanged from the beginning.
