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.

We need love, kindness and compassion to effect change. Call that emotional intelligence if you will but our intellect is just simply not enough. That only speaks to the ego and its many cohorts, we need dialogue from heart to heart. Where else, pray are we going to find the truth of any matter, where else are we going to find ways to evolve that are in the best interests of all? That balance can only be felt, realised from within the heart and the one eternal love found there. Nigel Lott Get full access to Tea and Zen - Threads at teaandzen.substack.com/subscribe

COMMUNICATION

Wednesday Dec 28, 2022

Wednesday Dec 28, 2022

We use words spoken and written to communicate, to share with each other our thoughts, intentions and experiences, as we sojourn together on this planet we call earth, and yet the language of the heart [love] can only be expressed from within silence. Communication spoken or written, by its very nature takes us away from the truth at its deepest level. It separates us, in that no matter how hard we try we cannot connect heart to heart, and the one love found there. Our words will always fall short of their intended target….connecting heart to heart. It is in the silence within meeting the silence without......in that space out of time....that all truth is to be found....beyond even a whisper.

INSIGHTS AND PARABLES

Friday Dec 23, 2022

There is a path, a sublime pathway of wisdom and illumination which begins, for each human being, in any one incarnation on this earth in the present life, and thereafter leads inward, for it is the pathway of consciousness and spiritual realization leading ever inward, more inward, still more inward, toward the mystic East, which is the heart of the universe, and it is the core of you — the rising sun of spiritually divine consciousness within you. There is a hunger in every human heart, which nothing can satisfy or appease — a hunger for something more true than ordinary human beings wit of, a hunger for the real, a hunger for the sublime. It is the nostalgia of the soul, of the spirit-soul of man.The source of this longing is the home-sickness brought about by the soul-memory of our spiritual abode, whence we came and towards which we are now on our return journey. In proportion as you ally your-self with your own inner god, with the fountain of divinity which is constantly pouring through your own inner being, does your con- sciousness ascend and expand in power and reach, so that with inner growth comes expanding vision on the one hand and the expanding consciousness to interpret that vision on the other hand.  Golden Precepts of Esotericism — G. de PuruckerMusic ‘Elation’ Courtesy Epidemc Sound Get full access to Tea and Zen - Threads at teaandzen.substack.com/subscribe
