Forget about enlightenment.
Sit down wherever you are.
And listen to the wind singing in your veins.
Feel the love, the longing, the fear in your bones.
Open your heart to who you are, right now,
Not who you would like to be,
Not the saint you are striving to become,
But the being right here before you, inside you, around you.
All of you is holy.
You are already more and less
Than whatever you can know.
Breathe out.
Touch in,
Let go.
Practice
Pay attention to the in breath as if it were the very first breath. Pay attention to the out breath as if it were the very last. Now follow the full cycle of the breath. Notice the in breath as the stomach rises, the slight pause as the breath changes direction, the out breath as the belly falls, the slight pause, and the cycle repeats for an entire life. Be with the breath.
