– there is an experience of going through a deep/heavy emotion and it becoming completely empty. Nothing there. Peacefull. Giving tons of energy afterwards for a long time.
-there is an experience of unity. Interconnectedness.
But both are two separated experiences. While i have the feeling there sure is a link. But it is not experienced as such.
While i also have the feeling also this i don’t have to try to understand with my mind. Still the question comes back again and again…
yet, i have been listening/seeing to your words everywhere. in the sunday mass, in a lively chat with my friends at a chinese reataurant, in my work place, in a theatre play about indigenous australians, in other teacher words…
Thank you Sensei
Sensei, I miss your words here 🙂
Silence and sounds
The taste of sweet mandarins
Sitting here and everywhere
I breathe
in Perth, WA
i will.
thank you.
