The power of the written word
This morning I opened a book, just for an instant of time,
while I turned the pages my eyes centered on one line voluntarily:
‘Love is motiveless tenderness of the heart.”
(quote attributed to Swami Muktananda)
By reading these words I was instantly lifted into another realm of feeling,
emotions came up, pictures and sounds came into my awareness.
My responses to reading a single line were setting the energy level,
the flavor and the infinite possibilities for this newborn day.
A book is a messenger, the messages are quietly available,
we can be enriched by these offerings instantly
when taking in its pages with open eyes.
when taking in its pages with open eyes.
A book can be a present by any understanding,
available and waiting for us to see its richness.
It can be a tool to see any moment from a fresh perspective.
