A Trio Of Thoughts

After practicing Pulling Taffy, Variation #2, Wrist Circles – feeling the Chi flowing around the tan t’ien in ever widening circles, feeling at the center of the universe and revolving around me – I’m part of it all and it goes on forever. All is well, perfect; nothing is wanted or needed; all is provided in the right time and space. There is no struggle, no anxiety, no fear. All is love. Joy and peace come through a deep gratitude for no-thing, for all things. No-thing is more; more is no-thing. Enveloped in the essence of life, feeling the circularity of the Cosmic Rhythm resting in the moment. Not fretting, no regretting the past or pushing, no worrying about the future. Only resting in the present, knowing that all possibilities are in the now; it is all we truly have. Are we ready to live in this moment? Are we ready to allow the now?

The Gift

The gift is always here; it is only waiting for you to unwrap it. It is only for you; no one else can open it. It is yours – only yours. Do you have the courage, the curiosity, the joy to venture into a new world? Opening the gift opens a new way, a new seeing, a new feeling. Are you ready to pull on the ribbon to begin to release it? It only takes a gentle tug and the willingness to open to your Divine self – the gift. It’s been waiting patiently just under the surface. You’ve felt it: a soft whisper, a fleeting feeling, a gentle nudge. Tug on the ribbon; open the gift the universe gave you when you came into this world: you! T’ai Chi Chih helps you open gently to the gift of yourself. Justin opened himself to the gift and in the process gave us the sacred, perfect gift of TCC that he has selflessly shared with all of us. Thank you.

Deep Peace Comes After Deep Gratitude

To feel deep peace one must first feel the flow of deep gratitude. A joyful, warm, shimmering light washes over the outside of the body, but this feeling of gratitude also flows through the body into the feet and finally into the earth. Is each one of us a like a cell in the earth body? If gratitude flows through each one of us (the cells) and into the earth body will the earth and each one of us (the cells) find deep abiding peace? Who knows, but why don’t we all try it? Feel gratitude wash over and through you; be a beacon and show others the way, and at some point when a critical mass is reached, maybe peace will come to the earth.
