Live compassion, kindness and peace, both as an inner state of being, and as a global aspiration for a harmonious world, and wherever you go….remember to go with all of your heart……..do it all in the name of Love.Nigel Lott | teaandzen.org Get full access to Tea and Zen - Threads at teaandzen.substack.com/subscribe

DREAM TRAPPER

This P.E.A.C.E of music is aptly named Dream Trapper. It is said that when listened to, it will evoke only dreams within you that are dear to your heart…. and are created out of Love and only Love…all else will simply pass on through without notice undisturbed.Nigel Lott teaandzen.org Get full access to Tea and Zen - Threads at teaandzen.substack.com/subscribe

SLEEP TIME MEDITATION

I was asked to record the sleep time meditation from - ‘Love is Blind; - that I sent out the other night…here it is then.It occurs to me to say in this moment that whatever darkness, whatever suffering is within you..it is no less lovable than anything in the light. Whatever is going on with you in any moment you are a being of such love, please know that!…. of all your days and of your nights. It is by knowing that, accepting that…the darkness is largely dispelled.What is important to know is that during sleep the ego self, that construct is somewhat off line, so to speak and the hearts truth is seen to arise in some aspects that our waking ego state finds hard to allow. So practicing this letting go meditation just before sleep has less barriers to move through….something like that. Get full access to Tea and Zen - Threads at teaandzen.substack.com/subscribe

LOVE IS BLIND?

Listen to this music and follow this practice below just before sleep.It is said Love is blind yet, is it not the only thing that sees clearly of how it all is? open your heart to its light and may it burn away all the darkness, shadow by shadow let it all go into the light. Offer whatever is dark within you to this light just before you sleep every night as a meditation practice, lay it all down at the Masters feet, letting it go softly into the night, into the light of your ever present living soul. Go to sleep and do not be afraid. Be at Peace. Nigel LottMusic “Do Not Be Afraid’ Jacob Ahlbom Get full access to Tea and Zen - Threads at teaandzen.substack.com/subscribe

SACRED BREATH

Take a moment, take two why don’t you and breathe Love into your heart space just below the sternum. Imagine it as a mist you are breathing in through that space. Love meeting Love. In an out breath by breath, remember who you are.Then please breathe that Love out to all those in need, and in particular to all those beings who are hurting, suffering. Visualize this mist coming out from within the spiritual heart and reaching near and far into all hearts everywhere.Your loved ones and those who you do not find it easy to Love, yes those too. As your heart opens more to the Love within and without which is your true nature. Keep going, don’t stop……..Love in, Love out…….was there really ever anything else?I THINK NOT!Nigel Lott Get full access to Tea and Zen - Threads at teaandzen.substack.com/subscribe

CONTEMPLATION

This piece suggests that everything you do is sacred…you may well ask how could my life be sacred or that suffering could be called sacred……well, that’s the contemplation here. Contemplation is an action, a musing that takes place only from within the heart, so when you find yourself rationalizing rather than contemplating, pause…take a breath, and bring yourself back into your heart.
