Good morning! Welcome to the DKos Sangha weekly open thread.
This is an open thread for members of the DKos Sangha and interested visitors who happen by. Each of us has our own path; we come here by way of many different traditions, and of no particular tradition. While the language we use may differ depending on the traditions, teachers, practices, and teachings that have shaped our journeys, we find in common, generally, a search for who we truly are, our true nature, and to bring the peace and compassion born of that search into the greater world of which we are a part. If you wish to share, or if you seek support, or if you simply want to say hello, please do; this space is for you.
The breath moves within the body,
calming the energy from the morning’s activities;
the body feels at ease,
and the mind is still
~
A slight breeze moves through the branches outside the window
The cloud cover is low, hiding the far ridge
The cool air feels good on the skin
It is all the gift of a new day
~
It is as if this world is experienced for the first time;
and yet the stillness is always here, always home
~
There is an appreciation for the beauty,
and for the mystery
And there is gratitude for this gift of being
~
The breeze comes and goes,
the breath comes and goes;
thoughts arise and fall away,
the activities of the day will arise and fall away
~
But the stillness is always here
Home is always here
Being is always here
~~
May you abide in peace,
and may that peace touch all you meet
~~~
Namaste
