In the openness of this moment, as we learn to rest in what is here, we can lay down the burden of the past, and give life an opportunity to reach us, to penetrate our defenses. We experience ourselves as brand new, innocent, and fully alive. The healing, awakening power of presence allows us to access the full capacity of our intelligence, to courageously question the beliefs that have held us captive. Seeing through these thoughts that have kept us living inside small boxes, we enter the moving, dynamic stream of life.
This is not a practice for the mind. Understanding, more information, are not what liberate. This is a way of being, in which the body participates fully in the nature of presence, receiving this openness deep into the cells. The fragmentation of our being resolves, bit by bit, into the wholeness of presence, its indivisible nature, where we cannot find a separate, fixed identity.
