Stillness is …

StillPond

Stillness is a quiet morning

It is watching the sunrise over the mountains

And warm rays of sun as it hits the skin

 

Stillness is a pond without ripples

It is the clear reflection of objects in the water

And the calmness of the breath

 

Stillness is a hummingbird resting on a nearby branch

It is the sweet bird song in the palm tree overhead

And the scent of the dry desert

 

Stillness is the absence of a breeze

It is a cloudless sky

And a cat sleeping under the canopy

 

Stillness is the ego reflecting the Soul

It is concentration and meditation

And the slow constant beat of the heart

 

Stillness is a pair of hands folded in prayer

It is communion with the Divine

It is Soul united with Spirit

 

May your day be filled with stillness

Namaste
