Vast and changeless
the ground of being
is not rocked by
ripples on the pond.

The firmament from
which we spring, the
divinity at the heart
of things doesn't wax
or wane with mind states,
or wither in the wind.

We come from stronger
stuff then feelings.
Essence does not fail
or fade, diminish or
trade reality for illusion.

We are wordless, wide,
and wise beyond time.
Within us is a flame
of truth that never dies.
Let that be the focal
point of life. Let that
be the light that guides
us from the shadows.

~ Danna Faulds taken from 
"Go In and In' Poems from the Heart of Yoga

Sharing this inspiration from Danna Faulds once more. May it uplift your spirit and support you through tough times. You are stronger stuff than feelings. Let the flame ignite and continue to glow in you. May your light guide others from the shadows.

Namaste

    Oh the vast and changeless field of Being! I love the love that dissolves the little me, yet thrills at the diversity of its own expression. ❤

    Amen! We are so much stronger! And we are more than our feelings…the longer I dive into this journey of life I realize how much I have allowed my emotions to rule. Now I am learning that it is okay to have emotions, but it is up to me how much I allow them to affect my life 🙂 Sweet Blessings, Val. Thanks for sharing such wonderful wisdom ❤
