Ah, to be grounded in the depth of timeless presence in daily life – amidst the changing sands of experience.
In cultivating a quality of restful wakefulness that embraces each moment with acceptance, heart, and wisdom, we can make intimate contact with our inner being, the natural world, and the very nature of things.
Leela Sarti calls this coming back to deep ground. Not a state to attain, but a quality of awakeness that can hold every facet of experience – the ordinary and the difficult, the joyful and the uncertain – with care. From this ground, something steadies. We can be ourselves in peace with others, and still do what needs to be done.
In this Day of Practice with Leela, we’ll come together to inquire into how to live a life of deep ground. With a spirit of kindness, we’ll engage in meditative practices that support realignment, embodiment, and a sense of inner guidance.
This practice of sacred attention, of embodied awareness and presence, leads us to the mysterious ground of our nature.
