In The Morning...

 

In the morning, 

I slow my breathe down to 4x per minute. 

This helps my thoughts to slow down 

and for me not to identify with them. 

Then I do my prayers and meditations 

and sometime take a walk. 

While walking I appreciate the beauty of the sky, 

the trees, the flowers, 

they are miracles. 

This helps me to connect to the divine.

The Power of Attention

Gemini AI Generated image

 OCTOBER 27, 1949 Attention has the power of holding in a 

fixed field certain invisible matter or energy in molecular* 

state, which without attention diffuses indefinitely. 

This matter in molecular state has all kinds of powers of 

penetration, indefinite expansion and contraction, and so on, 

which of course the physical organism lacks; 

and in certain circumstances, through 'thinking— 

visualizing—sensing' exercises done with great attention, 

the 'experience' of this matter in molecular state can, 

I think, be communicated back to the understanding. Certainly laws*

 can be studied in this way with very interesting results. 

As I say, I think this idea that attention controls matter 

in molecular state is of is of greatest possible importance to us, 

and leads to many interesting things indeed.

my mind not to be where my body is.

Morning Supper

The Holy Supper - Leonardo Da Vinci

Today's morning meeting, and all Academy meetings,

 reminded me of morning mass, a banquet, 

where the hungry is fed from the food of The Highest.

"I am the bread of life. 

Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, 

and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty". 

John 6:35

Ut (Do) Re Mi Fa Sol La SI(Ti)

 

Guido d'Arezzo, Italian Benedictine, Music Theorist (990-1050) - Artist Unknown

Guido of Arezzo drew his inspiration 

and the syllables for the solfège system from a prayer in 

the Hymn to St. John the Baptist:

Latin: Ut queant laxis Resonāre fibrīs, Mīra gestōrum famulī tuōrum, Solve pollūtī labiī reātum, Sāncte Iōannēs.

English: So that your servants may, with loosened voices, resound the wonders of your deeds, cleanse the guilt from our stained lips, O Saint John.

Español: Para que tus siervos puedan exaltar a pleno pulmón las maravillas de tus obras, limpia la culpa de nuestros labios manchados, oh, San Juan.
