The Importance Of The Quiet Practice





The Conversation






Elements From The Conversation 


The eye is the lamp of the body. 
If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light. 
But if your eyes are unhealthy, 
your whole body will be full of darkness. 
If then the light within you is darkness, 
how great is that darkness!

                                                                    ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭6:22-23‬ ‭NIV‬‬

‭‭
                                                                                                            


...all the changes that come about, 
the changes in perception, the changes in attitude, 
the changes even in physiology, in neurology 
that happen when you really open yourself 
and take on meditation as the basis of your life practice....

You see oneness because you see from oneness....

                                                                       Cynthia Bourgeault


The very handy App from Contemplative Outreach that we find very helpful in our practice 




Music

What is so special about  Ludovico Einaudi's music, is the fact that he doesn't shy away from silence. The silence in his music is just as important as the notes. It's actually true for all music, but with Einaudi you're quite aware of it.  

The quote by Leonardo da Vinci right at the beginning of the video:

"Look carefully because what you are about to see is not what you just saw."




With our love. May we grow to where breathing is prayer.

  'n Duisend Hande Die Gesprek Elemente Uit Die Gesprek ~ ❖ ~ "Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative [or creation] there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too.  All sorts of things occur to help one that would otherwise never have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man would have believed would have come his way." W.H. Murray, Skotse ontdekkingsreisiger ~ ❖ ~ Cause of Death Uitstalling Ariana in vervoering  Musiek Wanneer jy dinge nie so krampagtig probeer beheer nie, jou oorgee aan die vloei van gebeure en oop is vir die onverwagte, kan jy saam met Ian McKellen sing. Ian McKellen gee nie om saam met wie hy sing nie, solank hy dit net kan doen.
