TEA AND ZEN - THREADS
There are moments when words arise not from thought, but from presence when the silence speaks, and the heart listens. Welcome to Letters from the Threshold, a contemplative audio offering from Meditation Sans Frontieres a sanctuary of presence, remembrance, and the healing beauty of stillness, drawn from the well of lived experience, grief, love, and the sacred technologies of being.

If people only knew how precious they are—how close we already are, how much is being entrusted to us in every breath—harm would become inconceivable, not forbidden, but impossible to imagine.

Parenting the Child Who Wakes the One Within Us
Wednesday Dec 17, 2025
Wednesday Dec 17, 2025
Parenting often reveals more than it instructs. In caring for our children, old memories surface—of what we received, and what we did not. This piece explores how parenting becomes an invitation to re-parent ourselves, freeing both parent and child from carrying unfinished stories, and allowing love to move in a new, gentler direction.

What is the role of a parent?
Monday Dec 15, 2025
Monday Dec 15, 2025
Long before theories, techniques, and expert opinions, there was a quieter knowing about what children need. Not perfection. Not control. But safety, presence, and a steady heart. This piece reflects on parenting as a sacred role—one rooted in witnessing, repair, boundaries, and the humility to let a child become who they already are.

Presence meeting Presence - The Eternal Flame
Thursday Dec 11, 2025
Thursday Dec 11, 2025
In this reflection, Nigel Lott speaks from the intimate terrain of presence — the wordless field where we meet one another beneath thought, story, and role. Drawing from years of sitting with the dying, he explores how grief, when held in silence, reveals itself as love, and how this same meeting is quietly occurring in every moment of our lives, though often obscured by fear, language, and self-protection.
This episode is an invitation to remember what is already happening between us — and to honor the sacred care required of those who keep vigil in the field of presence.
