Healing, Rest and Abundance

Nothing is ever lacking, everything is always in abundance. Our being is a manifestation of all that is around us, and everything that is around us is a manifestation of our being.

When we recognize the beauty in and out, and breathe in each breath and moment of beauty … we are able to connect with the beauty of the universe. Resting our bodies, allows the elements within to heal. Resting our minds, allows the beautiful thoughts of the universe to be watered within. And, in that space we become one with everything.

Let our thoughts of the past meld into everything we see around us. Just as nature lets go of all that has happened and continues, so shall we. Let our thoughts of the future meld in everything we see around us, just as nature lets go of all that will happen and continues to grow, so shall we.

The blue sky, the flower, the river, the cloud, these things have a healing nature.  If you allow yourself to be in touch with these healing elements, the wounds within your body and your mind will be healed.  We should allow ourselves to be healed, and therefore, we should allow ourselves to be in the heart of life, which contains so many wonderful things, like the children, the flower, and so on…

The seeds in our consciousness can function like anti-bodies.  What is important is that you continue to plant new seeds, the kind of seeds that are both refreshing and healing.  And if you just do that, by practicing mindful living so that you can be in touch with the flower, with the cypress tree, with the fresh air, with the beautiful eyes of the children, then these seeds will be planted in yourself, and they will naturally take care of the seeds of your suffering.  You don’t even have to touch them.  And that is something I think the practice of Buddhism can contribute to psychotherapy in the west. – Thich Nhat Hahn

Let go and let the universe do its work. All that can be seen and all that is beyond sight will heal.
