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.

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.

THE MORNING POEM

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.

THE MORNING POEM

Friday Jul 22, 2022

Friday Jul 22, 2022

  These spiritual window-shoppers,      who idly ask, 'How much is that?' Oh, I'm just looking.      They handle a hundred items and put them down,      shadows with no capital.       What is spent is love and two eyes wet with weeping.      But these walk into a shop,      and their whole lives pass suddenly in that moment,      in that shop.       Where did you go? "Nowhere."      What did you have to eat? "Nothing much."       Even if you don't know what you want,      buy something, to be part of the exchanging flow.       Start a huge, foolish project,      like Noah.       It makes absolutely no difference      what people think of you.Rumi Get full access to Tea and Zen - Threads at teaandzen.substack.com/subscribe
