"What if our religion was each
other. If our practice was our life.
If prayer, our words. What if the
temple was the earth. If forests
were our church. If holy water--
the rivers, lakes, and ocean. What
if meditation was our relationships.
If the teacher was life. If wisdom
was self-knowledge. If love was the
center of our being." ~Ganga White
Yoga Master Ganga White, offers
us food for thought with the above
words. I will ponder them at length.
The older I get, the more accepting
I am of others' beliefs. It matters,
doesn't it?! It's important that we
all have the freedom to believe as
we are so moved. And frankly,
what would make it right for me
to repudiate someone else's beliefs?
Again, food for thought.
In my dotage, have to admit I much
enjoy pondering these issues. I still
have a long way to go obviously, but
I hope to be invited to the other side
with even more understanding and
acceptance under my belt!
pondering my doubts
pray open my heart and eyes
need to understand
