Subbing for Kira this morning.
I have been moved by this passage from Ravi Ravindra's diary-style book "Heart Without Measure", p. 19
"I have had a long-standing question about the relationship between the strength needed for action in the world and the lightness necessary for contacting the spiritual realm. In practice, in general, I am pulled either one way or the other. Somewhere I understand the need for balancing the two. I believe it was Meister Eckhart who said, 'what we receive in contemplation, we give out in love' ".
I have personally started to access this feeling tone through the doorway of a gratitude meditation practice.
These were the inspirations for class this morning.
