The beloved teacher, guide, loving presence, and inspiration for Interbeing has passed away.
I open a little book I keep here on my desk, A Handful of Quiet, Happiness in Four Pebbles. The practice is to gather four pebbles, and let each one represent a flower, a mountain, still water, or space.
Then, the meditation is:
Breathing in, I see myself as a Flower.
Breathing out, I feel Fresh.
Breathing in, I see myself as a Mountain.
Breathing out, I feel Solid.
Breathing in, I see myself as Still Water.
Breathing out, I Reflect things as they are.
Breathing in, I see myself as Space.
Breathing out, I feel Free.
