SPIRITUAL EXPLORATIONS --13
WE ARE EXPLORING THE PRACTICE
OF STILLNESS
Stepping out of the
busyness, stopping our endless pursuit of getting somewhere else, is perhaps
the most beautiful offering we can make to our spirit.
-- Tara Brach
What's wrong with
being busy? Plenty. Americans have become the most
anxious, time-stressed people in the world, thanks in part to all the high-tech
devices at our fingertips that are meant to make life easier. The white noise
of trivia and the thrill of consumption fill our heads and guide our behaviors.
--
Richard Mahler
So, stop it! Don’t
surrender to the rat race. Lily Tomlin
said that even if you win the rat race, it is still a rat race. Allow the practice of stillness to become so
essential that you are liberated more and more from much of the anxiety and
stress which has become so deeply embedded in our society.
