I love your reflections here Mr. Brown! These words in particular struck me on your reflections of Endō‘s Deep River. That “what he manages here is a vision of Christ that exempts no one from the sway of the current of Love.” As Father Rhor would say, a truly Universal Christ. Thank you for sharing your writing with us!
“I’m not typically one to find myself meditating on the laws of thermodynamics (does anyone do this?)”
Well, I do. :)
While the laws of thermodynamics do require that matter and energy are conserved, the nefarious effect of entropy leads to an ultimate state in which energy is unusable. The clock eventually runs down in the total universe.

This is a beautiful meditation.

Ah yes, nasty nasty entropy... definitely adds an asterisk to Oliver's line that "nothing in this world moves but as a positive energy"!
