Quiet Center

Sit down, feet flat on the floor. Place your hands on your legs. Is your back straight?

Bring your attention to your heart. Focus on the space between the breasts. Simply be in that quiet, that deep, and quiet place. Sit for at least 10 minutes today.

While you are sitting, go deeper. Allow your attention to go deeper, so that you are part of the great whole of all creation, and your little mind, which still spins somewhere else, does what it does, says what it says, and can be itself.

You are whole. You are the silence. You are the great heart of the universe.

Kindly,

Wholeness

Dear Friends,

Most of us are looking for wholeness. Usually, we are looking for wholeness by searching for that person, that job, that home, that object that will make us whole.

What I've learned is that wholeness is who we are. We simply identify with the part of us that is not whole, usually our minds. Listen: what part of you does not stop, day or not? What part of you is telling you what to do, who you are, right now?

That is the mind. Your mind is the one who is telling you that you need something, someone else to be whole.

Sink into your whole self for a moment. Feel the wholeness that is you. There! Your mind doesn't stop, even for a moment, but now it is no longer all you are. You are whole, here, now. You need nothing for this blessed moment.

You are whole, complete.
Kindly,
