Consolation (20 Minutes)

A musical atmosphere for experiencing the soft, consoling darkness of meditation and the serenity of being.

“Some find comfort in the darkness.”
— Matsuo Bashō

“I will give you the treasures of darkness and the hidden riches of secret places.”
— Isaiah 45:3

This serene, spacious piece invites you to rest in the comforting stillness of contemplative darkness—not as something to be feared, but as a place of deep consolation. When we close our eyes in meditation, darkness is not absence; it is a quiet presence, a refuge where we can be soothed, accepted, and gently remembered back into ourselves.

Consolation is composed in C major and offered in two lengths—10 minutes and 20 minutes—ideal for sitting, prayer, or restful presence. It opens a space where being and awareness are no longer separate—where the dhyana of simple presence becomes a kind of home.

Here, in the darkness, nothing needs to be explained. Nothing needs to be done. Only this: rest, breathe, receive.
