Along with all the preparation to travel, so many details to attend to, I took the opportunity to spend a moment or two doing nothing. That was yesterday. Today its Heathrow and I’m taking another opportunity to do not very much. Well writing this of course – and also gorping out of the window at the hustle and bustle.
Worlds apart one might think. But in a certain way of thinking – there is no gap. Come sit and travel with me. Oddly there is more time/space to write here when ‘on the road’.
Sit and be at ease, where ever your sitting place is.
I had the opportunity to sit at the Vancouver Zen Centre this past Tuesday. The teacher there, Eshin Hoju Godfrey, said this while we were doing some walking meditation: “walking we are together with everything.” I found it unusually moving.
I offer this sentiment to you for safe and pleasant travels.
Oh Thankyou Michael. I will be in your area come August 1st.
