[Breathing]

"I felt it again this morning, saw it, knew it
beyond feeling, beyond seeing, beyond knowing.
Fell in, moved with, danced together.
As I breathe now, I feel it:
Rising, falling, the universe breathes with me...

...breathes me forward."

"your it", intelligent-energy, moving, leaping, dancing, going only forward, don't stop.

There is only breathing. No breather. The breath is the breather.

Julie, I don't aspire to the advanced development of these other friends. I can only say that for me dropping into my mantra, breathing it in or out, delivers me from the common egocentric stream of consciouness to what I take to be a higher plane.

Your words do get at something of what if feels like to meditate - which is very hard to put into words. There's that sense that your breathing is just "happening" along with everything else - "the universe breathes me..."

Larry, love, no need to aspire; you are there already, and just learning to see!

Darius; it doesn't have to end when the meditation does... well, neither does the meditation have to end when we stand up.

Travis; so you do; frim on!

Julie,
a truly wonderful state of awareness. We are being breathed as much or more than we breathe.

Thanks for sharing. Blessings.
