TEA AND ZEN - THREADS
Threads is a contemplative audio offering from Meditation Sans Frontières, a sanctuary devoted to presence, remembrance, and the quiet radiance of being. These transmissions arise from lived experience — from grief that has softened into wisdom, from love that refuses to diminish, and from the sacred interior technologies of stillness and relational presence.

The truth is not to be found within the intellect, within the mind, it is only found within the silent heart, where all Love resides and all kindness and compassion are made manifest. It is within you to come to know, you are not bereft of this truth non of us are, it is all within you……may you find it NOW, may the magic begin.‘Shaman’ Joseph Beg.

The whole of planet Earth is a sacred site. All people are the chosen people, and the purpose of our lives is a spiritual one.May we care for each other, and for the Earth, for everything relates to everything else.Feeling this oneness, may we radiate the light of love and kindness that all may live in unity and peace."~ Radha Sahar.

I have been to every continent on this planet, many major cities, and sat with so many people in this life of mine, and all I ever heard despite the barriers people had built up around themselves, was the profound desire to know peace, to be loved and to love…….just that. To recognize the unity of what it is to be human beyond all forms of separation and its suffering.To follow that ache and yearning for love to its final conclusion of oneness with all that is, that lay at the heart of every living soul it seems that I ever met, and to follow it in peace, to feel safe and secure, that only love, absolute reality can provide. May we all be at peace…it is after all…..our birthright. Get full access to Tea and Zen - Threads at teaandzen.substack.com/subscribe

In every conflict everyone plays a part, unwittingly at times but nonetheless there it is. The conflict ultimately is always the same at its core, driven by a profound fear that there is not enough LOVE for me. We can say it’s about this or that, sure but that’s surface stuff. The one great fear that drives all conflict is that there is a believe operating within the minds of those in conflict that there is not enough LOVE for me.I don’t mean sentimental love, as sweet as that is. I am talking about the very creative force of the universe, without which we cannot exist at any level. We believe that LOVE is limited (in the conflicted moment) not understanding by its very nature, LOVE is infinity in motion, there is always enough LOVE for us all. Only Minds Can Conflict, in the Oneness of the Heart there is only Love. Get full access to Tea and Zen - Threads at teaandzen.substack.com/subscribe

The environmental crisis is inseparable from the spiritual crisis that exists within the soul of most modern men and women and, is in fact an objectivization of this primarily inward crisis. Seyyad Hossein NasrTime is running out on our ability to manage successfully our impact on this our home, Mother Earth, its environment, bio-diversity, resource and life-support systems on which life as we know it depends. The response and action that is now required of us must be firmly rooted in our deepest moral and spiritual principles.

“Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.” These are words written in history, in antiquity by the Master Jesus to describe the action of humility needed that creates an open heart that leads to a love that even words like ecstasy....does not even come close to describing the truth of that love .....that is the kingdom of heaven that Jesus describes.And that heaven is in your heart, not only out there in some far distant quadrant of any universe. It is within all hearts and is the space also in between our hearts and on every breath you take and when breath you take no more.It opens the door to the truth, the truth that patiently waits for the knock on the door of your heart, taken with all humility....that gives entry to the kingdom of heaven. Nigel Lott"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you” Matthew 7:7 Get full access to Tea and Zen - Threads at teaandzen.substack.com/subscribe
