a week ago a sitting-in-circle at the resiliency center. am remembering now we may have come to a way of unraveling the seeming puzzles and paradoxes of living in this world: with an allowing of space.
sitting comfortably and with ease.
closing your eyes.
allowing your body to be at rest
and your breathing to be natural.
easing into spaciousness, into expansiveness.
relaxing in this openness.
the world arising, in this moment, as always it has been, and is, arising…
in the deepest within, the most infinite beyond.
no one sitting, nothing happening.
you sitting, you happening.
you sitting, with an allowing of space…
allowing space for joy allowing space for grief
allowing space for confusion allowing space for clarity
allowing space for petulance allowing space for surrender, allowing space for acceptance
allowing space for whatever arises unfolds and reveals
allowing space for anything
allowing space for everything
an all-inclusive path.
