It was another beautiful day as we met @ the Rothko Chapel. There's something about the place that, for this personality, makes it so easy to let go. I think that perhaps there are several reasons for this. One is that thousands if not millions of people have traveled from all over the world to come to the chapel to meditate. Another is the lovely natural setting of the place. Sometimes trying to meditate can make effortless concentration, well, effortful. Appreciating nature is a simple way to lose one's self in the miracle of the life that surrounds us. Have you ever had the experience of being wrapped up in your own circus of nagging thoughts and then let your eyes lift to notice a sky full of clouds? Did you find that for a moment or two you were so taken by the beauty that you completely let go? The circus left town, there was not a thought in your head. Nor were you daydreaming. Only the experience of that moment remained. Effortless, single pointed concentration. That's meditation, my friends.

I've decided that during the summer months the Rothko Chapel will be our regular meeting place on Tuesday evenings and some Sundays. If it rains, we won't meet. Simple as that. 

Years ago, one of my clients gifted me with a wonderful book before I left Chicago. It's called The Shaman's Bulldog - A Love Story. In only 104 pages author Renaldo Fischer M.D. captures the wonder of the natural world through the eyes of an unlikely hero - an English bulldog named Faccia Bella. The dog transforms the man by teaching him to live in the moment.

Have a Blessed Evening,
  S.
