We all sift through the hodgepodge of everyday thoughts as we sink or drop deeper into meditation. “What will we have for dinner?…let’s invite friends over…my shoulders feel more relaxed….” and on and on it goes….
I move slightly to adjust into a more relaxed posture… I feel my sit bones grounded in my cushion….
Deeper and deeper the alluring pull of the life force takes my mind. My breath slows and becomes shallower, my mind’s chatter lessening….
My heart smiles as it feels a taste of the bliss that sometimes accompanies meditation.
I can be still. This is the safest of places, a refuge. It invites me in.
I love this life force as I love life itself. I then realize it is life itself.
To come to see, feel, and know the life force is one of the greatest gifts. To feel its vital value and know its presence is a miraculous opportunity to live.
