“Duende”

(Spanish: Passion/Inspiration)

.

Breathe In  . . . . . Breathe Out  . . . . .

Just let it be natural and unforced,

no need to control it. Let it happen . . . .

Simply bring awareness to it . . . . .

. . . . . . . and let it Rest there

.

It is the Pulse of the Universe . . . .

the Rhythm of Life.

The Going Out  . . . and the Coming Back  . . .

The mutual exchange between all beings,

. . . . . . . at the centre of Everything.

.

It stills the mind . . . .

with its quiet, gentle un-noticed-ness,

opening up the senses without filters . . . . .

and immersing the present in Presence,

. . . . . . . that is Life itself.

.

Emptiness has a heartbeat . . . .

its pulse rippling out in all the ten directions,

touching the boundless limit-less-ness.

Be the breath . . . Be the beating heart  . . .

. . . . . . . Be the unfolding Universe,

.

Full, Whole and Complete.

.
