The Light Inside

how you see changes what is seen ~ a meditation and guided exploration in how you are paying attention. in practice, and in the ultimate practice of life, it is not just what you approach, but how you approach it. meditation asks not for just any kind of awareness, but loving awareness; the capacity to see both kindly and clearly. so many of us have been taught the opposite; that criticism is the most reliable strategy for change. this guided practice reminds listeners of another way; that acceptance is not apathy, but honesty. and that honesty and compassion diffuse the charge inherent in judgment, and create space for clarity and conscious choice. the light inside is a nod to the generous work of Ram Dass, and a return to the forever teaching that if we are not practicing with love, then we are not really practicing.
