This address is religious,
Sorrowful,
Russian and this address is also a horrendous and Becoming aware of sitting here.
Just a seat under your body.
Feeling how you're being held and carried by the earth.
Feel this calm and quiet of the earth under you.
Not moving.
Even if you'd be sitting in a train,
For example,
The steadiness would be continuous.
Even in the movement.
So feel this steadiness.
So feel the movement of breathing in the body.
The in and out flow of breath.
There's nothing you need to do.
It's all taking care of,
Taking care of itself.
Just observing.
Feeling the in breath,
The out breath.
Feeling the calm of just sitting.
The calm of the earth under you.
So your seat and the earth.
Have no opinions,
No ideas of what they want to hold,
What to carry,
What not,
Whether they like it or not.
They are just here.
Just holding whatever is there to hold what is upon it.
Feel this neutrality.
The earth just is.
Your seat,
The chair or the sofa or the cushion,
It just is.
The body just is.
It just functions naturally.
Breathing in and out.
Keeps itself warm.
Heart is beating.
Nothing to do.
It's just all happening naturally.
So be with this.
Simply like this,
Like the earth.
Just resting in yourself.
Not wanting anything,
Not longing for anything,
Not resisting.
Just being.
Staying in the moment.
Resting in yourself.
Resting in your natural silence.
Resting in your natural silence.
Whenever thoughts come up,
Start distracting you,
Making noise,
Wanting this and that,
Worrying about this and that,
Hoping for this and that.
And just see the just thoughts.
No need to follow them.
Meanwhile the earth is just here.
Be still breathing.
Essentially you are also just here,
Always.
So rest in yourself and simple presence.
Staying like the earth.
Just being.
Resting in your natural silence.
Resting in your natural silence.
The earth is not weak by not doing anything.
Its power,
Its strength is to just be.
Receive whatever comes.
Hold whatever comes.
Not letting it go when it goes,
Rain,
Footsteps,
Sunshine,
Trees and houses.
It holds them all but doesn't hold on.
No opinion here,
Only being.
And the same way,
You yourself as presence is just here always.
Try not to be.
It's impossible.
Try not to be aware.
You always here,
Aware.
Whatever you are aware of,
Awareness is here.
Rest in this,
As this.
Like the earth.
You don't need to pretend to be anything or try to be anything.
You don't need to be anything.
Just be.
Rest as you are.
And peace is here.
Rest in peace.
Rest in peace.
So at any given time you might feel the earth is here,
The body is here.
I am here.
I am here.
I am here.
I am here.
I am here.
I am here.
