there's intimacy in listening - each note to rise from silence, held in it's desired length of stay, and released once more to merge back into the void. At no point do we find a space apart between sound and the quietness offered for it's existence. In this sense, meditation is not a silent mind but the acceptance of sound within it's natural state, simply a receiving, and then giving more of it's own quiet nature in return. So we find ourselves mindful, intimate with a birdsong, a nights breeze played against a window pane, and even traffic rushing through a city street - what we offer is a backdrop for meaning to occur, a space for vibrations to be heard, what we offer is the listening...
