Returned to grace - mind and body appear within presence, it's life lived in the illusion of drama and all the while there is the abiding reality of our unmoved nature. There is no wrong to this, we fully engage in the joy and sorrow of this mystery. We are actors in a great play, forgetful to the point of our conviction, we believe fully in the part we play as individual self. Yet presence itself is not forgotten - our truth remains the eternal backdrop of theater. In a simple shift, our attention pulled from world of thought and form to that which allows these things to happen and then to pass - we find ourselves returned to the grace that's always present. We find ourselves home. In truth - we never left at all.
