Evidence of Grace

Our desire to wake up is evidence of grace.

Having a human body means we can do sadhana of many different kinds.

Capacity means we are honest and persistent and don’t lose sight of our heart’s desire.

Accomplishment means we no longer measure and have discovered the inexhaustible generosity.

Knowledge means we embody the primordial wisdom and its inseparability from devotion.

Devotion arises naturally in the crucible of wonder at the appearing of all beings and things. 

Kindness is how we express our desire for the well-being of all. 

Compassion is fearlessly acting for the well-being of all. 

Nonduality is a concept for beginning to understand there is only fullness here. 

The livingness overflows any concepts. 

Discovering the great intimacy, 

we also discover there are no others

and that we love all the others. 

Contradictions are also for beginners. 

Laughter is also evidence of grace.

Infinite love to you!
