The Remembrance

I see reconnecting with the divinity within as one of T’ai Chi Chih’s most valuable treasures. To remember God is to know God. But only God (within) can know God.

By fostering and nurturing stillness and spaciousness, TCC helps us to remember who and what we truly are – it helps us reconnect with the light and divinity within. The reconnection begins when we relax and move softly and slowly as though we are flowing in a dream. Our attention is in the body and therefore not in the head. No longer in the head, we then enter mindfulness by being the objective observer of our minds, an observing presence. Any thoughts or mental scenarios that arise just float by like passing clouds. We realize that, like the sun, the light of our consciousness, our observing presence, the witness, is ever present. And we then realize that this presence is like a ray of light, emanating from that source that we call God. Light upon light. We remember who and what we are, and thus we remember God. Our remembrance leads us back home – back to the blessed garden of serenity.
