The Cupola is a beautiful structure
and has the opening directly in the middle of it,
where the "real I" CAN LOOK.
Years ago, in Mexico
I was in a monastery,
and there was a room with a cupola
and below it a coffin
where the monks were laid out at their funeral.
The realisation was, for me at that time,
that the soul escaped and saw the entire gardens
and place where it had lived.
That this room
was an objective space for it to see in the moment
of release after the body had died,
everything it had lived in that space of the monastery,
all the rose gardens
and surrounding areas of the monastery from a higher place.
