Day 12

My mind is syphoned into the moment. It rests where I Am, undisturbed. The quiet has become a constant. I am aware of the weight of air, its caress penetrating beyond my thin skin… it seems to reach into my interior, a spiraling breath.  It is day 12.  I wonder at this body that becomes [...]

Emptying

I am filled with a holy emptiness, fed by the unseen.  The hunger of my belly wanes. It is day 9, and I slept at last, all night.  In meditation the practice reveals itself. Inhaling the suffering and pain in the world, exhaling love and compassion.  Breathe in, breathe out. The observer, my sentinel [...]

Initiation

The day is cold and wet.  I began a 40 day fast on September, 18th 2009.  A spiritual pilgrimage to the innermost heart of my true being.  I have been intuitively preparing for this process.  But all things must ripen.  Now the fruit is full and laden with the weight of summer.

Back in the city that steals my breath.  I cocoon myself.  Closed shades and thick bed linens, the comfort of a darkened [...]

Gypsy wanderer

Varnished desert walls, ancient and towering against an azure sky.   The road snakes through the canyon following the Dolores river that tires in rhythm with autumn’s wake. Spacious solitude.  It mirrors what lies within me and I breathe into the hollow of my own timeless landscape.  The colors of southwestern Colorado are a feast. [...]

Walking the tight rope

I am mute.  I walk the tight rope.
My savings becomes nearly obsolete.  No work.  I head to Orvis.  It is refuge for my soul. Surrounded by the San Juans I find my breath.  I float on my back as cold rain falls.  A holy baptism. I dive under the water with darkening skies overhead.  I [...]
