Food For Thought

Eternity isn’t a long time. Eternity has noting to do with time. Eternity is that dimension of here and now which thinking and time cuts out. This is it. And the experience of eternity right here and now is the function of life. – Joseph Campbell

Around us, life bursts forth with miracles – a glass of water, a ray of sunshine, a leaf, a caterpillar, a flower, laughter, raindrops. If you live in awareness, it is easy to see miracles everywhere. Each human being is a multiplicity of miracles. Eyes that see thousands of colours, shapes, and forms; ears that hear a bee flying or a thunderclap; a brain that ponders a speck of dust as easily as the entire cosmos; a heart that beats in rhythm with the heartbeat of all beings. When we are tired and feel discouraged by life’s daily struggles, we may not notice these miracles, but they are always there. - Thich Nhat Hanh

As we to learn to trust the Universe, we gradually let go of our attempts to control events and exert influence over the world. By cultivating peace in our minds we become less fearful, more forgiving and compassionate. As you release egoistic intentions your actions flow from a place of deeper love and wisdom. We then become beacons of light for others, not by will or persuasion, but by living joyfully in tune with the Way. In the words of Lao Tsu, "Tao in the world is like a river flowing home to the sea.” - Unknown

Zen masters and mystics have described spititual awakening as transcending illusions of language and thought, which includes cultural ideas about linear time. Nirvina is not a place we arrive at, its a new way of experiencing everything, connecting with the mystery of Eternity and the Univrese right here and now. Loving each moment with deep gratitude and love for the miracle of our existence, as creative expressions of Nature’s diversity and consciousness on this planet. - Christotpher
