Reflections: Nature Meditation – Stillness

By: Steve Ridley

Reflections

Pulsing within silent stillness
the symphony of creation.

T’ai Chi Chih practice is grounded in the natural wisdom of yin-yang dynamics as well as the silent stillness which precedes and sustains these complementary forces.

Nature Meditation

In stillness
listening, the river song
realizations arise.

– Steve Ridley

Stillness

Whatever is dancing in us is what we see dancing all around us. When we let go of worry and tension, there is only a dynamic stillness. In that stillness, we experience the whole world as light and awareness.

– Swami Chetanananda
