Day One Hundred Eighty Two

Retreat Day Two

Stepping out of the "swirl of emotion and thought" as Narayan puts it, leaves me with the tools for meditation: body, breath, sound. It is more possible here to get in touch with the present moment and the information that awareness brings.

There are people outside on the street; cars, buses and birds. In this moment they are not in time, they are not in my thoughts. They do not exist in time or space, theirs or anyone's. Yet there is no one for them to not exist for, either.
