You can hear it by playing this youtube video

It's nice to meditate to while reading.





"The purpose of this peace

is not to give you more money,

not to make you enlightened.…

Zen & the Art of Visualization #1

 

Close eyes...

 

A scene unfolds on mind-dark panorama

over-grown with weeds & fragrant wildflowers

a path opens up …

the intrusive drone of distant traffic

fades in forest echoes

fades… softer…fades… fainter…. fainter…

Shards of Clarity (Waterfall Tears Give Way to Inner Strength)

Lay down on the beating earth and sigh

offer to the Lady Gaia your loving energy

water Earth with the tears you cry...

Fear not waves of…

The Process of Surrender in Meditation

"Meditation techniques & spiritual practices

are extremely important

but do not necessarily

take you directly into meditation.



They might, they might not.



For many,

practices take them to frustration.



You might find that no matter

how focused you are on the…

You Can Always Be Conscious - It is Just a Matter of Surrender

"Everyone has situations

in their life where they say

'It's impossible to be present

in this situation.'
