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 sky, the mountains, the trees dancing in the wind; this body, this mind, this heart. Here there is the mystery of being, the joyful welcoming of experience; and from here all that is to appear is born.
The taste of morning coffee lingers on the lips, its heat warms the body. The breath within and the breeze without are one.
From a book at hand, a short poem is read. And then, just sitting in the stillness; drinking deeply of this. Just this.
Another breeze and the trees dance again, its sound moving with the dance through the cove.
The stillness is pervasive.
There is gratitude for the gift of this; an appreciation for that which is beyond all knowing.
And then a prayer, that this deep peace be found by all beings; may we all abide herein.

Namaste
