Touching the Earth
After a weeks break it was lovely to return to a shared practice with the Sangha. The guided meditation was the 5 contemplations, reminding us of our impermenance.
The reading was from the Three Earth Touchings, helping us to understand how interbeing spans space and time. A line I particularly like is ‘Seventy or eighty years is not my life span. My lifespan, like a leaf or a Buddha, is limitless’. I love the juxtaposition of a leaf and Buddha. How cool is that!
