The quiet within compels me to be still.
I have been observing Fridays as a day to not speak and to fast, this seems to reset my internal balance, although quite difficult at times to withdraw from business, talking to husband and dog, talking to myself, also monitor time, email, face-book It is quite an eye opener so see when there is no food to do, business and household chores and no monitor time. Pretty obvious where my attachments lie.
And yet I am in this world of phenomena driven activity. This is where I can contribute to myself and others, where I can serve. To withdraw from the world completely would be harder than I can imagine. I enjoy my life, my family, my work, myself, people, places and things. For this is what makes up my human life on planet earth.
But to know that it is all a grand play on a grand stage, now that is what truly makes life fun. To know that at any given moment I can let go of what ever thought, opinion, activities, plan, concept, attitude, feeling!!!! Wow, for me that is freedom.
It is not that I do not participate in all the phenomena I do...... but is is so fluid and porous that it just all seems to swirl around me, through me. I am it and I am not it, Everything resides in the me that is not a separate self, a separate me. A moving, dancing, pulsating surge of energy that never stops but constantly changes.
And I remain still within
