Veni Vidi Amavi

I came. I saw. I loved. This Latin saying has been a guidepost for me during challenging times. A short and unique loving kindness practice to ground us into our purpose of love. May it be the same for you as well.

Transcript

I am a lover of philosophy and this passion has brought some wonderful and powerful insights into my life as a wife,

Mother,

Sister,

Daughter,

Friend,

Leader,

Human being.

One such gift is the Latin saying,

Veni,

Vidi,

Amavi,

Which translates in English to I came,

I saw,

I loved.

I came to be here and now,

This place and this time.

I came.

I saw beauty and pain,

Joy and sorrow.

I saw.

I loved all of it,

Myself,

Others,

All beings,

All experiences,

All of everything unconditionally.

I loved.

Each time I feel challenged,

Lost,

Powerless,

Alone.

When I question my purpose,

Every time before I teach or lead,

I meditate on this profound truth.

Veni,

Vidi,

Amavi.

I came.

I saw.

I loved.

Join me.

Find a comfortable position.

Close your eyes if you can.

Relax your body.

Take a deep belly breath.

And silently repeat after me.

Veni,

Vidi,

Amavi.

Veni,

Vidi,

Amavi.

Veni,

Vidi,

Amavi.

May this powerful truth act as a compass to navigate you home and bring you the same peace and comfort it brings to me.
