You know, this is one of my favorite lessons, because Yogani once again clarifies how Deep Meditation is a technique of travelling inward. The more we travel inward, the more we can enjoy and sublimely perceive the outward aspects of ourselves, such as Mother Nature.
I experienced some of that pleasure this weekend in the Florida Keys. I went down there for an old friend's bachelor party. While everyone else was drinking lots of booze and getting stoned, I stayed sober and found a quiet place to meditate. Shortly after the session, I swam in the crystal clear ocean water and basked in the warmth of the sun. I dangled my feet off a dock and fed the tropical fish with bits of bait. I relished in the sparkling colors all around me, and appreciated how meditation has sharpened my senses in a way that seems to keep refining.
Has anyone else noticed an increased connection with Mother Nature and our Collective Body on Earth?
