There are many forces in our lives--inside our bodies, minds, and spirits...around our bodies in our immediate environment...people in our household, home, neighborhood, village/city... nature as incarnate in plants, insects, and animals...all of the elements, sunshine, water, earth, and air surrounding and connecting us all! 

All of these forces converge inside us moment by moment, changing us (according to the quantum physicists) at a subatomic levels many times in a single second (i can't even fathom that!). We cannot figure it all out. Who can even describe all the mysterious and marvelous biological/chemical processes that happen within us to keep us alive every day--the cardiovascular, nervous, gastrointestinal, endocrine, reproductive, and respiratory systems are examples of activities that are in constant play with each other underneath/below the level of our conscious awareness. Yet, these systems are a real and living parts of us representing an innate intelligence that keeps us alive even though we have little awareness of their activities! 


The best response to all of these converging forces within us is CELEBRATE and PLAY--enjoy the gift of life with family, friends, plants, animals, elementals, and all life forms and forces!

1 DOT starting with 1 dot coalesing they unite swirling in the 1 two senses of "1" are represented in the image...the 1 dot at the far left (the beginning, the one that starts it all...one idea, one person, one big bang) and the 1 at the far right (the end, the culmination, the combination of many 1's, the unification of the many into 1)...how is it that from the 1 comes the many...as a Taoist saying (paraphrased) expresses it...from the 1 come the 10,000 things. practice...take care what starting point (thought, belief, motivation) you begin with in any undertaking f or in it contains the seeds of everything else that follows...reflect on where your thoughts originate...work backwards, for fun, from the action to the seed thought that led to the action...try this backward investigation for several actions and several thoughts, and see if they lead back to the 1...this 1 has a powerful influence in your life.

2 CIRCLES from the 2 circles touching and overlapping reality births from the 2 comes the many, from male and female comes new life, from thesis and antithesis comes synthesis...the touching and overlap seems to facilitate new birth(s) at the intersection of the circles, the vortex, the vesica piscis, the mandorla (almond), the portal of new life... consider 2  vital ideas/parts of yourself...meditate on how the parts/ideas overlap, interrelate, connect...open...look/sense the portal of new life emerging...what implications does this have for being and doing?

FLOATING TRIANGLES floating triangles surrounded by colored dots revealing the face dots create lines that make up triangles, that make up the star in the center of which is a face...our face, their face, nature's face, G's face...all are there hiding at center...distracted by the colorful dots and triangles of life, sometimes it's hard to catch a glimpse of the face at the center, to be aware of the awareness that makes it possible to see the face, to contemplate the face of all faces. how many triangles are in your life... people, issues, challenges, problems, things you need to do, beliefs, habits, titles, roles, beauties, things...STOP the outward gaze and look inward to see your own face in meditation...contemplate the face...see others in your face, nature in your face, the universe in your face, G in your face...
