take some time to be free...of time, that is.

"Whatever comes to your mind never react, just watch, smile, and you're surrendering. As your thoughts come, you no longer pay any attention to it, it doesn't bother you, that's surrendering.

The next thought comes to you, you don't pay any attention to it. It doesn't frighten you, it doesn't make you happy, it doesn't make you sad, just watch it and it'll go away, you surrender that thought.

Your mind will become calmer and calmer and calmer and quieter and quieter and quieter, until it dissolves itself in the heart and you will be free."

~Robert Adams

There You Are again...

Flower of Life Crystal Grid mat

Ever since I stepped out of imagination
and into the Heart of things
I have become so much less spiritual.
Heaven, hell and earth
hold no meaning for me anymore .
For I am neither coming
nor going
nor staying put.
All I do is notice all the various ways
that Light weaves itself into dreams.

When someone asks me who they are
or what God is
I smile inside and whisper to the Light:
There you go again, pretending.
~ Adyashanti

just see right...

"Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
But only he who sees, takes off his shoes…"

world explodes, but the air is never broken...

"Zen is very simple. Dishwashing time, just wash dishes; sitting time, just sit; driving time, just drive; talking time, just talk. That's all. Not special. But that is very difficult. That is absolutes thinking. When you're doing something, just do it. No opposites...
It's easy to talk about "When you're doing something, just do it," but action is very difficult. Just don't hold. Thinking is OK. Checking is OK. Only holding is a problem. Don't hold. Feeling coming, going, OK. Don't hold. If your mind is not holding anything, it is clear like space. Clear like space means that sometimes clouds come, sometimes rain or lightning or airplane comes, or even a missile blows up, BOOM! World explodes, but the air is never broken. This space is never broken."

Flower of Life design and repurposing...

Flower of Life designs in wall art and floor pillows/ buckwheat hull zafus. The wood frame for the wall art was found on the curb a few months ago. It was a dresser mirror frame in its former existence. Yay for repurposing creatively!
