Daily Quote, Friday June 19, 2009

Not so great in the forecast today, so get out early for some sun. :-)

Today's quote reminds me of the book about drawing with the right side of the brain. Do we ever draw just what we see? I just spent a few minutes looking at my desk. I find the gaze always has to pick something out. Interesting. Why?

Like seeing the whole content of the room at once.

Be alert to all your thoughts and feelings, don't let one feeling or thought slip by without being aware of it and absorbing all its content. Absorbing is not the word, but seeing the whole content of the thought-feeling. It is like entering a room and seeing the whole content of the room at once, its atmosphere and its spaces. To see and be aware of one's thoughts makes one intensively sensitive, pliable, and alert. Don't condemn or judge, but be very alert. Out of separation, out of the dross comes pure gold.
