We can sit on a hillside and watch the wonder and mystery of Nature in motion. We might watch a cloud bank roll in from the sea, and notice how it changes the light and temperature as it moves in. The cloud’s journey may be blocked by a mountain, whose summit disappears into the mist.
The more we watch without thought, the more we feel ourselves to be part of one whole living being. Witnessing the quiet unfolding in nature brings us into the present moment, where we experience the essence of our own being and our connection to all that surrounds us. |
