Casting Lots

Being in love with someone is really just another form of practice.

Yes you will probably experience purity, lust, caring, friendship. But also hatred, doubt, despair, and envy. Often, several of these feelings will happen at the same time.

Entering the cauldron of life, one comes face to face with that which one longs for, and that which one fears. And this is at the heart of practice: to recognize ourselves in these, and to realize the truth of one’s self lies “beyond” these precious moments to which we are privy.

The taste of the fullness of life is bittersweet. And yet in its revelation we become evermore that which we are. And in that moment of reflection, the wisdom of that which is onto all things, gives meaning and life to the presence to which we are graced. Respect your blessings of love, as you would your practice.
