The Whole Picture

"I've come to believe that for our spiritual practice to be truly transformational,

we need to find a way to bring it into every moment of our lives, until everything

we do is infused with the energy and wisdom of enlightenment."

Craig Hamilton

To capture nature, we widen our scope to include air, wind, fire, and water.  Each can be singled out with deep appreciation, but the grandeur is embraced when integrated into one.  When we can take the whole picture to heart, we are propelled into joy.

The true can be said for our spiritual experiences.  Singled out, meditation, chanting, dancing, or creative expression offer an individual opportunity for expansion; however, when we gather each of these into one undertaking, we discover bliss.

As we ground ourselves, maintaining our spiritual outlook, we bring joy not only to ourselves, but to those surrounding us.  When we master the balance of inner wisdom with outer existence, we will prosper greatly.
