You are not in the world.

The world is appearing

in what you are.

Body, breath, forest, light—

all arise within the same still field,

without boundary or centre.

Meditation is not an act here.

It is the quiet recognition

that nothing has ever been outside.

from the different ways of being…

inquiry for today~ how much is your heart holding?

alive and well….

I hope you know you are loved in all your quintessential ways.

I hope you know the moon rises while the sun sleeps.

I appreciate that they take turns. I hope you know, you too need to rise and rest.

We need the rhythm of the seasons, the sundial of our day, and the stars to be a nightlight.

We need the ocean and her waves. Sleep deep and dream far, sweet friends. We need you
