Solitude and a Meditation for Winter
This morning brought the first frost. The park was unrecognisable. An otherworldly scene. All washed with silver, save the outline of the deer and trees. Winter, the Earth’s contraction, was beginning.
The Sun and Moon Within
As the moon represents our mental energy, the sun represents our life force. Both the sun and the moon are always there, but the moon remains hidden until it is exposed to the sun's light. In that encounter, our spiritual powers ignite.
The Poisoned Cup
It has been said that holding onto anger is like taking poison and expecting the other person to die. Anger can be a catalyst. The first lightning bolt arrives with purpose, sent from the firmament to clear a torpid sky.
Harmony
Harmony refers to compatibility, fitting together, cooperation, unity, balance, understanding, goodwill. It stands for the whole. The dynamic of individual parts in sync, even when those parts contain contradictory forces.
Emptiness
Our Universe is expanding fast. There are more mysteries than questions solved. The biggest mystery is life itself. Who are we? What is the power that leaves us when we die? Where do we come from and where are we going? Does the soul exist and what is it?
A reminder from plants
They spoke as one entangled web, threading remains of an abandoned building. Their green veins had dismantled every wall but one.
Transform your mind: go home
Home is not a place but a feeling of connection. We merely attach that feeling to places and people. But external circumstances change throughout our lives. It is therefore easy to end up homeless, with no place of emotional warmth to run to, a cold and lost state. Having to run anywhere is the source of the problem. Home is not somewhere else

Water, flowing everywhere, touching all it finds: cleaning, carving, healing, seamlessly connected drops, wearing down even the hardest rocks, grinding, softening, world-shaping, water.
Transform your mind: star fire
Looking up means seeing infinitely further than our day-to-day lives ever allow; such an experience has a deep inward echo, prompting us to contemplate the truth behind humanity and maybe beyond. A celestial realm of possibility, of nothingness; imagination’s pure potential littered with the coded twinkling of ancient fires.

How to move on from disasters
You got the answers, but the questions changed. Just didn't see it coming. There have been unfortunate consequences. It shifted your perspective on everything, altered history and brought down the future. Call it a disaster. Ready or not, now’s the time to move on and start writing a new chapter.
Remembering
Out of despair she asked for help and searched the river with her eyes. The reply rose up as a flicker of light weaved into the water. It was the moon. Water had received her orison and carried her word to the moon. Moon spoke…
Yoga can help you find your inner sun
In the practice of yoga, you turn the voltage down and enter an introspective state. You get in touch with your inner nature. You become the sun that shines and the moon that reflects the light of others.
Transform your mind: the sun’s gravity
We are not only being pulled down towards the earth. There is a distant yet tremendously greater force influencing and choreographing our days: the sun, the orgasmic burning centre of our solar system.
Finding aether in the everyday
We each have access to it, the ethereal element that makes life radiant. The secret and pervasive teachings of the sky-keepers seek to leave us in doubt of this, to keep humanity in their chains and mind-forged manacles. They have kept individuals, enterprises, and whole cities tethered to destructive and self-destructive habits. How can we find our way back to our own reserves of aether?
