The first day of what I term the ChOprah Center 21-day meditation series, Desire & Destiny.
Surprised by how much I took from it, what with being at the very public Swedenborg Library. Yet, all surrounding distractions fell away as I followed Deepak's voice into the meditation.
The same cannot be said of the internal distractions, the monkey chatter that played over & over atop the base note of today's mantra - So hum/Who am I? Fascinating to feel the duck & weave of sounds & images that overlay the mantra. My moment-to-moment reality is that whifty stuff continually competes just that way, diverting attention & focus & energies.
But my deeper mind DID keep drawing my attention & focus & energies back to the mantra, back to be who I am, whatever that may turn out to be.
My first dabble at meditation went far better than I expected. So hum - What am I?
You are what your deepest desire is; as is your desire, so
is your intention; as is your intention,
so is your will; as is your will, so is your deed; as is your deed, so is your destiny.
