Your body is not a tomb, or a trap, or punishment.
Your body is the universe inviting you to wake up and dance.
Your body is the universe inviting you to wake up and dance.
Your body has no edges. It is an ocean of energy expanding
in waves of breath, teeming with stars, swirling with galaxies,
overflowing with the very rim of time and space. And your
dance can be wild as a whirlwind, or as quiet as a heartbeat.
You need not even move; your body is moving anyway, hosts
of cells, countless atoms in the marvelous ballet of
incarnation...

The axis of infinity runs up your hollow spine, a silver thread
of silk to tether your skull to the most distant star, and your
belly to the fire of darkness in the center of the planet.

Your body is a lightening bolt, connecting heaven and earth.
In truth, it is only the limited mind that insists on
distinguishing the spiritual from the physical...

But please, don't mistake the mind for the Self.
You are not the mind.
Bathe in the sea of the Breath...
You are the cosmos, flowing in gratitude through the energy of
your flesh, dissolving your mind into the infinite sky. Be bold.
Leap into the unfathomable ocean of your body. Live in the
silent grace beyond thought.

Thanks, I needed this for today...going to the doctor in a couple of hours with a strange rash on my face...just a new piece of information on my body!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that. Maybe it's your mask?
DeleteI know what it's like to have chronic health issues since birth, so it's hard sometimes to experience the body as the cosmos when it doesn't function well. Maybe that's why I like Fred's perspective, a reminder too that I am not my body, but what animates my body. I often feel surges of energy running through, no doubt the kundalini :)
