Remember This

Remember This

Vast and changeless,
the ground of being
is not rocked by
ripples on the pond.

The firmament from
which we spring, the
divinity at the heart
of things doesn’t wax
or wane with mind states,
or wither in the wind.

We come from stronger
stuff than feelings.
Essence does not fail
or fade, diminish or
trade reality for illusion.

We are wordless, wide,
and wise beyond time.
Within us is a flame
of truth that never dies.
Let that be the focal
point of life. Let that
be the light that guides
us from the shadows.

– Danna Faulds, Go In and In: Poems form the Heart of Yoga

Beautifully said. I hope you remember this today and every day, friends. And may we move this planet toward peace for all beings.
