Today at meditation I wrote about the sparrow again. I saw him in the window peering at me and unable to disturb me. He rapped and I didn’t dance but flushed red. Why is that? I wanted to dance but had to sit still in monster pose of meditation. Why monster? For I don’t like to sit still in meditation. I like to wiggle around and do what I want. I read a book by an Atlanta female psychologist that you should sit and do what your body wants for five minutes each day. For instance, I wanted to rub my tummy and I did and I burst into tears. This is a challenge to Buddhism’s stance display of sitting and following the breathe. I follow the breathe but also allow my body to speak and don’t hold it strenuously. Isn’t that Buddhism at it’s best, allowing for the unknown? I know of no other way to meditate. Let me hear you speak on this. Sincerely, Worshipful with out Blue Jade Dragon
