Autumn equinox this weekend - celebrate with us beginning Sunday at 7:30 pm with meditation, labyrinth walk and 8:30 fire ceremony, drumming, chanting, etc. Everyone is welcome! Meditation time is increasing for me - now up to an hour plus. It is truly amazing how much more significant the period is now. In my reading of
From the Finite to the Infinite by Swami Muktananda these words about meditation spoke to me this morning: "We keep looking for love outside ourselves, and in this constant search for love we become weary and tired. But when we go within and find love there, our weariness ends and our seeking is fulfilled...........As awareness turns within, more and more bliss begins to arise. The world within is vast, it is great, it is divine--and through meditation, one gets to know that world." What is surprising to me is that taking more time for meditation seems to
make more time to accomplish other tasks. Somehow, I get more done. I'm even finding time to knit again. And, of course, that activity is also meditative when I allow it to be.
