Leaping Into This Moment
Saltar a Este Momento
An invitation to leap freshly into this moment, letting thoughts float by while discovering the quiet beauty already present in sounds, breath, and sensation.
Leaping Into This Moment
Sit comfortably.
And trust what is just this.
And trust is only one way.
You can be risk takers, leaping into the moment.
Not knowing, not fully trusting, exploring.
The way of devotion
I guess it's the way of devotion to what is, faith.
You can also look, inquire what the mind does when it's real.
And we can understand more deeply:
there is only ever this, this moment.
What is.
And the thoughts, the imagination of past and future,
will pull less and less.
Things may drop: the fighting, the resisting.
Sinking into what is here
Gently noticing sounds, sensations, thoughts.
As we allow this sinking, diving into sensations of body, breath, sounds, perceptions,
we will often be equally pulled by thoughts.
And there is just this simple recommendation:
recognize thought as thought.
How thought is not ultimately true.
Just a friendly ignoring of thought content.
Just letting it be.
Let it float in the background.
Open observing
This open observing, waiting.
Nothing to wait for.
Your mind is active.
Your sensations are uncomfortable.
Just look for beauty in your experience.
As if you had just come into this moment, to this world,
experiencing it for the first time.
Maybe it's the beauty of the crispness of sounds,
the tingling sensations in the skin.
The magic of color and light.
The gentle vulnerability of the breath.
