SPIRITUAL EXPLORATIONS – 186
WE ARE EXPLORING THE PRACTICE
OF DELIGHT
+ In the time of
your life, live — so that in that wondrous time you shall not add to the misery
and sorrow of the world, but shall smile to the infinite delight and mystery of
it.
-- William Saroyan
+ Let us immerse ourselves in “the infinite delight and
mystery of it.” Yes, there is plenty of “misery and sorrow” but wherever there
is pain, there is also joy or,
at least, “a nice cup of tea” as the English like to say. You can find all
kinds of ways to delight in each and every moment when you put your mind,
heart, body and soul into it. Yes you
can. And you often do. You are wonderful.
+ Delight
is not one of the 37 Spirituality & Practice practices BUT put Delight in
their Search Engine and you come up with 85 items including 67 quotes, 16
books, 1 practice, and 1 film as of 6/14/16.
Go to http://www.spiritualityandpractice.com/search/?q=Delight. However, it is clear that Mary Ann &
Frederic Brussat are big fans of Joy.
Therefore, put Joy in their
Search Engine and you come up with 2057 items including 867 quotes, 835
books, 160 practices, 11 teachers, 24 arts links, 29 e-courses, 98 films, 26
blogs and 4 traditions as of 6/14/16. Oh, and Joy IS
one of the 37 spiritual practices. You can also be inspired by their
Twelves Gallery on Joy.
+ Joy will
come up again very soon in these explorations since it is the second of 9
heavenly attributes we will be exploring.
+ I would love it if you offered a guest post on this
practice or any practice. And, I have
work to do on my Delight page. Maybe you can help. Send an email with the subject “Delight”
or “Guest Post” to John@abundancetrek.com.
