The Running Sutras - Verse 7:3



Meditate on the Guide,
the Giver of all, the Primordial
Poet, smaller than an atom,
unthinkable, brilliant as the sun.
                                                  (Bhagavad Gita 8:9)

~
Beyond steps - there is the stride, abiding in the
infinite potential of a promised
foot fall.

Beyond thought - there is the Self...

  • Once fatigued - we often place our thoughts upon a single step, one step and then repeated until at last the Absolute stride is revealed. This is the path to the Self. We can begin every run with the same intent - our mind concentrated to the singular aspect of the Self and soon we find the whole world revealed in its potential. Our stride exists for this alone.
 Peace,
Eric
