TEA AND ZEN - THREADS

An Essential Journey Back into Light

May the sacred spark of light and goodness within each of us illuminate our way forward from the tragedies that befall us. May our light expand to bring healing and wholeness to all who are in pain. Together, may we journey as one world toward a harmonious place where sorrows become memories, and love and compassion flow like a gentle rain.

In the quiet between heartbeats a whisper calls you home, you are not broken you are becoming. These threads of silence and sound are letters from the threshold, offerings from the edge of stillness.

INFINITE CONSCIOUSNESS

In the infinite consciousness, in every atom of it, universes come and go like particles of dust in a beam of sunlight that shines through a hole in the roof. These come and go like ripples on the ocean.

A BLESSING

“May the light of a thousand candles guide your path. May their warm, gentle glow illuminate your way, bringing comfort and clarity through the darkest of times.

CONTEMPLATION - INTEGRITY

I am not interested in the ‘integrity’ coming out of your thinking mind, that can hardly be the truth of any matter. No, what I am most interested in is the integrity that flows from your heart accompanied by Grace. That is the truth of any and all matter……… it is where you and I meet as ONE.

ALL THE HEMISPHERES

Leave the familiar for a while.Let your senses and bodies stretch outLike a welcomed seasonOnto the meadows and shores and hills.Open up to the Roof.Make a new water-mark on your excitementAnd love.Like a blooming night flower,Bestow your vital fragrance of happinessAnd givingUpon our intimate assembly.Change rooms in your mind for a day.All the hemispheres in existenceLie beside an equatorIn your heart.Greet YourselfIn your thousand other formsAs you mount the hidden tide and travelBack home.All the hemispheres in heavenAre sitting around a fireChattingWhile stitching themselves togetherInto the Great Circle inside ofYou.
