Sitting quietly, breathing in and out Centred presence feels blissful and complete Bliss strobes within let out a silent shout Our vaporised self’s awash at God's feet Time ticks away but we are oblivious Grazed by bliss mists, we feel its benign burn Ignition within is continuous This play is enacted in body urn When life beckons us, we go out to play The game is simply embrace and release To the cadence divine we gently sway Flowing gently as does the morning breeze There being no one here to weigh and size ~ Each breath we take, is imbibed in surprise 13-January-2023

Hello Unseeking Seeker, I close my eyes an lay down. I concentrate in silence breathing deeply. Feeling myself in another place for relaxing. When I wake I feel so much better. Blessings my friend. My fav.

the quantum leap from passive to active meditation.....no easy feat. We sit in stillness to slow down.......we sit in traffic hoping it will speed up......go figure
