Good morning! Welcome to the Dkos Sangha weekly open thread.
This is an open thread for members of the Dkos Sangha and interested visitors who happen by. Each of us has our own path; we come here by way of many different traditions, and of no particular tradition. While the language we use may differ depending on the traditions, teachers, practices, and teachings that have shaped our journeys, we find in common, generally, a search for who we truly are, our true nature, and to bring the peace and compassion born of that search into the greater world of which we area part. If you wish to share, or if you seek support, or if you simply want to say hello, please do, as this space is for you.
Food For Thought:
The “Present Moment”: It’s all we really know as “reality”…...….
“The Past and the Future are only images...”
“This is the path. Or a path; or no path at all. For our natural state of being is always already here, just waiting to be uncovered, waiting for the veil to be lifted.”
Take this time to sit, and quietly take in your surroundings in a comfortable place. Do not dwell on thoughts that enter your mind for long, as the need to empty the mind while sitting is what is to be realized, all the while concentrating on your breath: Breath in, and exhale out, and truly realize the moment of this time that is just for you, it is your place, your time, you are at home: Your home.
Breathe…
Notice the thoughts as they arise, and fall away.
Notice the thoughts as they arise, and fall away.
Notice the awareness within which thoughts, and sounds arise, and fall away…
Abide in this awareness, the stillness of being.
This ocean of peace...*

Namaste
Peace this day, and everyday.
