The soft heart

Before you speak, ask yourself, is it kind, is it necessary, is it true, does it improve on the silence? Sai Baba


I heard this today: "The heart is soft it can stretch enough to hold the whole universe in a single heart beat"

This morning the temple of my own heart is beating in rhythm with the earth- i find myself reaching out to all those who are in this moment suffering. This is the heart meditation that i learn many many moons ago. To bring inside my own heart all those who i would judge, find wrong, revile and am repulsed by- to sit with them as simply aspects of myself. And in the breath find the forgiveness...it is a courageous practice.

Today it has more significance- the reason- because something happened in the night time dreaming that revealed to me - we really are ONE- Yes yes i know- we are one we all "know it". But what of your heart knowing- does your heart know? Is there really a moment of experience where you can deeply be with this heart knowing- not as a concept -not as a cliche? But as lived in the moment experience. With this awareenss comes another moment of divinity, another deep knowing- that everything we think really does create this universe we are co-creating....

If this is so- then all of communications...ALL of them become very important- for these are the bids we are making to the universe for how it IS.

I heard last night David Lynch on an interview and he was talking about peace- he said something like: "Peace is one of those concepts that we think is nice- it would be nice, but its not a reality- its kind nice in a sweet old lady kind of a way- what if peace was something that is so possible- Peace is not a concept it is a lived experience of the absence of negativity- "

Peace then like we are One is not simply a nice idea- it IS.

inside all of this I am back to the softness of the one heart that is the heat beat of the universe and in this field of unity..we are all beautiful harmonic resonances of the same oneness....

we are now/here and no/body......

My invitation Breathe Heart today- the softness of your heart-

this mediation will change you inside and and out....it will also change the world.....how can it not?

bright blessings to you...
