If You Live...


  "If you live the sacred and despise the ordinary,        you are still bobbing in the ocean of delusion."

Aum...

OM!
Understanding the innermost world of spiritual thought has brought many a person to their knees!  In a real sense, there is need for careful reflection when it comes to the practice of meditation.  Such a simple act - just sitting and breathing - has created a vast array of opinions as to the proper perspective one should have towards the exquisite art of meditation.  It boggles the mind to think that such tension has been created at times over such a simple process.  Whole religious communities are opposed to the mere concept itself.  The western world has missed much benefit through ignoring the subtle benefits created through this discipline.  Now, we have the freedom to explore our own way; our own path towards the esoteric art we call meditation.

In an effort to tap the inner depths of consciousness - to touch the unseen world of Spirit, we must immerse ourselves into the ocean of unknowing.  This literal point exists in the lower abdomen just below the navel.  The starting point of life itself.  Like a candle being lit, life's energy flows from this point, into all the body.  Without such energy, we cease to exist.

The key to meditation lies in its purpose.  In the desire to connect all of who we are into One. One point.  One point meditation.  The beginning and the ending of all things.  The great circle of life!.

IT'S A NEW DAY!

It's a new day!  Have you seen the sunrise?  Have you been out to find the breeze is blowing through the leaves on the trees?  The little sparkles of sun lit dew drops beneath your feet are echoing the refrain  - "It's a  new day!"

Beauty is all around you!  You only have to look and see it peeking out behind a moss covered rock; in the eye of a new-born bird in its nest.  The sounds of nature resound with the echos... "It's a new day!"

Tip-toe past the lilly frog sitting on a branch - its tongue held out to snatch a quick bite to eat.  All of the rivers and streams bubble in rhythm as if to say - "It's a new day!"

Pick up your feet and do a little dance!  Shake your head and take in all the fresh air the day has brought.  The glistening waves pound the shores at your feet; saying - "Its a new day!"

No matter how bad your past has been, it is always possible to start over...
Yes, you will shed some tears and maybe lose a close friend or two, but the possibility of creating  something spectacular out of your life seems more than worth it.  After all...
"It's A New Day!"
